London, UK - In a fashion selection organized by the French edition of Elle, top international stars were chosen as the best in a variety of categories.

Tilda Swinton ran off with honors as “Stylista”. French actress and comedian Valérie Lemercier took honors for her “total black” looks, while MTV host Alexa Chung was selected as “British Girl”, Penelope Cruz for “Red Carpet”, and the top model Natalia Vodianova for “Fashion pointue” or fashion forward. However, it is the actress Scarlett Johansson who took the top honor of “sexy bombshell”.

The panel of expert judges was presided over by Nathalie Rykiel, president & artistic director of the French fashion dynasty, Sonia Rykiel.
