This age is one where women score touchdowns for their voices and liberties, and <a href="https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/meghan-markle">Meghan Markle</a> is a pivotal figure in this era. In a world where <a href="https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/millie-bobby-brown/">Millie Bobby Brown</a> had boldly charted her feminist path and the Duchess of Sussex raised her voice amid the royal turmoil following her exit, the stage was set for an empowering transformation. Speaking of feminism, Greta Gerwig&#8217;s creation, Barbie, shone with a powerful message delivered through America Ferrera&#8217;s compelling monologue. It is indeed an age of women&#8217;s empowerment.
In a spotlight-graced celebration of women&#8217;s achievements on the cinematic stage, Glamour bestowed upon Lily Allen the prestigious title of Theater Actor Woman of the Year. However, Allen herself declared Markle as her personal Woman of the Year.
<h2>Meghan Markle steals the spotlight as Lily Allen&#8217;s personal woman of the year</h2>
Glamour magazine recently hosted a grand gala, spotlighting the women who have become true game-changers and feminist champions. The illustrious awards ceremony, held in the heart of London, crowned Lily Allen in the theater category, post the recognition for her role in The Pillowman. During an interview, Allen was prompted to reveal her choice for Woman of the Year, and her answer was unequivocal: Meghan Markle. She showered praise on Markle, stating, &#8220;she just is one big middle finger to the British press in particular.”

It was a powerful nod to Markle&#8217;s unwavering resilience in the face of media scrutiny. More so, an applause for her courage to challenge the status quo. The Women of the Year Awards shone a light on these deserving women as well. Halle Bailey stepped into the limelight as she clinched the Gen Z Gamechanger Award. The top accolade, <a href="https://www.netflixjunkie.com/hollywood-news-millie-bobby-brown-the-shining-star-illuminating-glamours-global-women-of-the-year-cover/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Women of the Year, was jointly embraced by Stranger Things star, Millie Bobby Brown</a> and Barbie fame America Ferrera.

According to Allen, the Duchess of Sussex embodies a true source of inspiration. Back in May, Markle accepted the Women of Vision Award for 2023, and her choice of attire spoke volumes.
<h2>Celebrating Markle&#8217;s empowering style</h2>
Markle&#8217;s acceptance of the 2023 Women of Vision award at a glittering gala in New York City was a dazzling departure from her royal wardrobe. As per Page Six, Markle was clad in a shimmering gold Johanna Ortiz gown. She radiated a newfound confidence and individuality. Further, she no longer conformed to the neutral tones she once wore to blend in with the royal family.

This bold choice marked a significant transition, symbolizing her return to Hollywood stardom and embracing her true self. Joined by <a href="https://www.netflixjunkie.com/tag/prince-harry/">Prince Harry</a> and her mother, Doria Ragland, this event signified her first joint public appearance with the Duke of Sussex since the coronation of King Charles III. It was clear that we can anticipate more striking and transformative looks from Markle in the future.
