Celebrating Women of the Year in Style
Last night saw the return of Harper’s Bazaar’s annual Women of the Year Awards at Claridge’s, where we were delighted to honor a host of inspiring talents. Held in partnership with Harry Winston and attended by the likes of Emilia Clarke, Jenna Ortega and Janelle Monáe, the star-studded event felt like a particularly special celebration of female achievement across film, TV, art and culture.

Leading the glamour on the red carpet was musician Janelle Monáe, who made a sculptural statement in a custom black Harris Reed gown with voluminous sleeves and a structured bodice. She accessorized with a Felipe Oliviera clutch and dazzling jewelry by Olivia & Pearl.
