The specialist title asked experts across more than 25 fields to name the individuals who are having the most impact across Britain today. And surprise, surprise, Victoria and David were top of the pack.
Kate Moss and Cara Delevingne were also prime and present amongst the list of fashion influencers, joined by make-up artist Pat McGrath, hairstylist to the stars Sam McKnight and Jimmy Choo co-founder, Tamara Mellon.
