Prince Harry's wife Markle, now called the
Duchess of Sussex, was named alongside Scottish politician Ruth
Davidson, fashion designer Stella McCartney and Harry Potter
author J.K. Rowling in the fashion publication's inaugural "The
Vogue 25".
It highlighted influential women working in sectors such as arts
and entertainment, science, politics, media and law.
Markle, whose star-studded wedding celebrations at Windsor
Castle this month were watched by millions of people around the
globe, was described as "one of the most recognizable women in
the world".
"Her influence stretches far beyond the ceaseless coverage of
her style – as a bi-racial campaigning feminist from America,
she is helping to forge a new 21st-century identity for the
monarchy," British Vogue wrote on its website.
It hailed Scottish Conservative leader Davidson's "relatable
personality and progressive ideas" and said McCartney ran "one
of the most forward-thinking and powerful independent houses in
fashion".
Other names to make the list of influential women, whose ages
range from 22 to 73, include human rights lawyer Amal Clooney,
singer Dua Lipa, models Adwoa Aboah and Edie Campbell and
Manchester United Chief Operating Officer Collette Roche.
