James Bond star Daniel Craig was named Britain's best-dressed man and comic Russell Brand was branded the worst dress by men's style authority GQ.

In an article in GQ's May issue, due out on Thursday, the magazine listed the 10 best-dressed and worst-dressed men in the country.

The new 007 has topped the publication's annual style list, beating Conservative politician David Cameron and Hollywood star Clive Owen.

Craig becomes the first James Bond since Sean Connery to take the title.

A GQ statement reads, "No Bond since Sean Connery has worn it better. It works because the 007 uniform seems like an upgrade of what Craig would naturally wear."

Elsewhere in the top 10, Jude Law was fifth, David Beckham sixth, Pete Doherty seventh and British royal Prince Harry 10th.

Prince Harry also made it on the list -- the first royal to be included in the poll -- placing 10th, with GQ describing him as "the sartorial world's favourite Army recruit."
