Harper’s Bazaar Women of the Year: Aimee Lou Wood Wins TV Actress Award; Cheryl Presents Musician Award to Jade Thirlwall

Harper’s Bazaar Women Of The Year 2025 Awards gathered a host of inspiring ladies to celebrate Britain’s biggest female stars under one roof on Thursday night.

White Lotus star Aimee Lou Wood kicked off the night, held at Claridge’s hotel in London’s affluent Mayfair, as she accepted the Television Actress gong.

Aimee, 31, who recently revealed she battled body dysmorphia while filming bikini scenes for the series, stunned in a semi-sheer black gown.

The actress told Harper’s Bazaar this month: ‘I shook myself out of it by thinking, “It’s not about whether Aimee wants to show her body or not – Chelsea [her character] does.”’

‘The line between me and her [her character Chelsea] started to blur’, Aimee said.

Cheryl Tweedy made a rare appearance as she stepped into the spotlight to present Jade Thirlwall with the Musician award at this year’s ceremony.
