Good Housekeeping magazine’s annual list praised the 43-year-old model for her “innate sense of style that never looks studied or overdone”.

Elle Macpherson, 44, came second, with judges calling her “the absolute mistress of throwaway chic”.

Trinny Woodall, 44, of Trinny and Susannah fame, came in third, and drew praise for her “ideal clotheshorse figure”.

'Sex And The City' actress Kim Cattrall, 52, Michael Caine’s wife Shakira, 61, and 80-year-old former Bond girl Honor Blackman also made the top 10.



Jane de Teliga, Good Housekeeping’s fashion director, said: “Why is it that, when Helen Mirren was snapped this summer on the beach sporting a red bikini, it sent shockwaves through the media? What was more startling – that she was over 60 or that she looked fabulous?

“In our youth-obsessed world, Good Housekeeping wants to fly the flag for women over 40 who look fantastic.”

Sharon Osbourne came first last year but does not feature in the 2008 list.

The list appears in full in the October issue of Good Housekeeping magazine, on sale on Thursday October 4.
