The awards ceremony will take place in the autumn of this year at Claridge’s, for the 10th year running.
Harper’s Bazaar Women of the Year Awards launched in 2007 and recognises the outstanding achievements of women in the worlds of fashion, film, art, music, philanthropy, activism and literature. Categories this year will include: Artist, Inspiration, Actress, Breakthrough and Icon. Previous winners include: Sarah Gilbert, Lashana Lynch, Victoria Beckham, Jodie Foster, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Gillian Anderson, Kylie Minogue, Michaela Coel, Jane Fonda and Keira Knightley.
This year, Harper’s Bazaar will also be asking their readers to nominate a woman who has done something remarkable for her community in the past 18 months, whether as a key worker, community champion, charity worker or having assisted others during the pandemic. To nominate an amazing woman who is deserving of the accolade of Change Leader, readers are asked to send in a short essay outlining why. More information on the nominations process can be found here.
The winner will be invited to attend the awards in person with a guest and to be celebrated alongside the additional winners on the evening. The Change Leader award is intended to highlight the outstanding women across the country working in a variety of fields who have been pillars of strength in the past 18 months.
As headline sponsor of the awards, Armani beauty will be fully integrated across the Harper’s Bazaar platforms.
