Chinese actress Fan Bingbing made her debut on Vanity Fair's list of most-stylish this year, alongside other famous names like American actress Jessica Chastain and rapper Jay-Z. 

British royals Kate Middleton and Prince Harry led the magazine's international best-dressed list on Tuesday, following a year in which all eyes have been on Britain's young members of the monarchy.

The newly wed Duchess of Cambridge, 30, whose husband is Harry's brother Prince William, will grace the September cover of the magazine's newsstand editions after a year of setting style trends and wowing fashionistas with her mix of designer and high street wardrobe choices in her first year of official duties.

The magazine said Prince Charles spent an estimated US$55,000 (S$68,000) on designer clothes for his new daughter-in-law but that Middleton declined the services of a royal dresser. Instead, she selected her own wardrobe from designers such as Alice Temperley and Alexander McQueen, as well as stores like Topshop and T.K. Maxx.

With Prince William off the list, fashion watchers wondered if his father should offer to hire him a stylist.

Prince Harry, 27, led the best-dressed men followed by New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, who is married to model Gisele Bundchen. Both the prince and the sports star made their first appearances on the style list.

The Vanity Fair best-dressed rundown is voted for by more than 2,000 fashion industry professionals, journalists and taste-makers as well as the best-dressed Hall of Fame members.
