The Woman of Impact Award is InStyle’s honor for a woman whose work changes what is possible for others — through art, advocacy or example. Priyanka Chopra received it at the 2026 Imagemaker Awards, presented by Avantika Vandanapu, Amita Rao and Megan Suri. In her remarks, Chopra said her younger self ‘wouldn’t believe it,’ reflecting on a journey from shy small-town teenager to one of the most recognized women on the planet.
