The last Thursday of November is, of course, Thanksgiving. And this year our sartorial souls are thankful for British Vogue's 2023 Forces for Change party that took place at The Maine Mayfair last night, boasting an unsurprisingly glamorous guest list.

“Forces for Change was established with the explicit intention of spotlighting the individuals across fashion and politics and sport and activism and sustainability who are driving positive change,” the publication explained.

babThe cause was first launched in the September 2019 issue which was guest-edited by the Duchess of Sussex. "I’m honoured to have this very special issue recognized," Meghan said at the time. "Creating 'Forces for Change' with Edward was an opportunity to have the September issue of Vogue reflect the world as we see it—beautiful and strong in its diversity. "

This year the fashion on display was as eccentric, diverse and captivating as ever. From Maya Jama in head-to-toe leather to Rita Ora in a sheer face mask, Alexa Chung making a case for trench coat print dresses and Leah Williamson nailing party season ballet flats, here are some of the best-dressed guests from the evening:
