Deyn named best-dressed ahead of Kate Moss

Kate Moss has been knocked off the top of a best-dressed list by model-of-the-moment Agyness Deyn.
34-year-old Moss had taken the best-dressed crown for the last two years thanks to her prized ability to influence the contents of women's wardrobes.
Although she still receives praise in Tatler magazine's annual list, it is Moss's rival Deyn, 25, whose sartorial choices enlist most respect.
Tatler also puts Samantha Cameron, the wife of Tory leader David Cameron, in the top 10 for being "consistently chic and never flash". The magazine adds: "She brings some much-needed glamour to the Tory Wives Club."
Actress Keira Knightley takes fourth place, for being a "red carpet style icon" who works the "grungy but clean" look during the day.
Anouck Lepere, the Belgian model girlfriend of Moss's ex, Jefferson Hack, is sixth.
Alexa Chung, the girlfriend of Arctic Monkeys frontman Alex Turner and presenter of T4, is 10th. The magazine says she is often "seen in a navy children's princess coat with a velvet collar which cost a tenner in Brick Lane".
Former chip girl Deyn, winner of Model of the Year, recently replaced Moss in the latest Burberry campaign.
The fashion label says Moss is "still part of the Burberry family".
Tatler writes of Deyn: "Whether she's sipping chai at the Russian Tea Rooms in Primrose Hill or kicking back at Henry Holland's studio, She's fash-fabulous... Rockin."
It still credits Moss with influencing women, giving her second place in the top 10 and writing: "If she wears it, the rest of the world follows suit.She has proven her designer credentials with her sell-out Topshop clothing range."
