It is Blanchett's second appearance and the first for Nyong'o
on the annual list, which does not rank its fashion stars. The
style setters list is dominated by actors, but it also includes
European royals, sports stars and artists.
Princess Mary of Denmark, Queen Maxima of the Netherlands and "Downton
Abbey" actress Michelle Dockery were noted for their style,
along with artist Jeff Koons, New York Giant football wide
receiver Victor Cruz and Grammy-winning musician Pharrell
Williams.
Williams, on the list for a second time, named actor Johnny Depp
as his style icon, while Cruz said he admired Williams for his
style.
Although Nyong'o has been praised for her fashion flair, when
asked to name her favorite places to shop she told the magazine,
"nowhere. I dislike shopping."
Tony award winner Neil Patrick Harris was another first-timer on
the list, along with actors Benedict Cumberbatch, Idris Elba,
Emmy Rossum and "Harry Potter" star Emma Watson, who said her
favorite place to shop was British retail chain Topshop.
The Duchess of Cambridge, a fixture of the list for four years,
will be joined in the magazine's best-dressed Hall of Fame by
German fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld, the creative force
behind Chanel.
The full list will be published in the September issue of the
magazine, which goes on sale on Aug. 12. It can be found at
