Started in 2018, The Vogue 25 celebrates and champions the most influential women defining Britain today, with numerous powerhouse women having been recognised on the annual list over the years.

Leading the way for 2025 is Amal, who in her impressive career has built a remarkable reputation as a supreme defender, in particularly representing victims of sexual violence in combat zones. 

Opening up about one of the biggest challenges she faces in the pursuit of justice, Amal told Vogue: ‘Apathy. There will always be injustice, cruelty and abuses of power. But if the good people – those who don’t agree with what is happening – stay quiet, it becomes very difficult to effect change.

‘If there is more cowardice than courage in the corridors of power – in governments, companies – it is very difficult to improve the system. Yet I believe that justice must be waged, it is not something that simply happens on its own. The arc of history doesn’t bend toward justice: individuals have to pull it that way.’

The wife of Hollywood star George Clooney stunned in a striking photo for the publications as she posed in her gown and clutched her barrister’s wig.

Meanwhile, film star Keira Knightley, 40, was also recognised on Vogue’s prestigious list thanks to her impressive acting career that has spanned over 30 years.

Kiera, who’s breakthrough role was in 2002’s Bend It Like Beckham, told Vogue of entering a new era: ‘It’s quite nice to have lived your life and have lived experiences. And be like, “Well, I’ve been through that and I’ve come out the other side. And here we are and it’s all a bit chaotic, but you can go on”.’

Elsewhere, model and transgender activist Munroe Bergdorf, 37, was highlighted amid her being trailblazing campaigner for trans rights.

Speaking of the hope she felt while transitioning, Munroe told how the transition in itself felt like the hope one will ‘live the life that you want to live one day.’

She added that she felt ‘really lucky’ to be able to exercise that very hope on a daily basis. 

Other notable women in the Vogue 25 list include England footballer Lucy Bronze, 33, who spoke of her joy at women’s football now ‘thriving’.
