Pics: People magazine’s ‘Best Dressed Women’ of 2012

Pics: People magazine’s ‘Best Dressed Women’ of 2012: Hollywood actress Gwyneth Paltrow has been named the Best Dressed Woman of 2012 by the editors of the style and fashion magazine, People.

The Best Dressed title comes as yet another feather in Paltrow’s well plumed hat. Earlier this year, Paltrow was crowned the 'Best Dressed' at the 2012 Oscars by fashion magazine Vogue after she attended the event in a white Tom Ford dress.

Now, she’s beaten the likes of Emma Stone, Miranda Kerr and the Kardashian sisters, Kim Kardashian being the prominent, to top the Best Dressed Women of 2012 list by People magazine.

According to People: “Her (Gwyneth’s) red carpet skills are unparalleled, always arriving in unexpected, yet chic looks. Of course, it helps to have Gwynnie's body when going for a Stella McCartney racerback gown or Prada micromini - but we can't begrudge her that when she seems to be having so much fun with her wardrobe.”

The top ten also includes Jessica Alba, Reese Witherspoon and Jennifer Lawrence.

Check out the others in top ten ahead.
