10 of Meghan Markle’s all-time best royal looks

10 of Meghan Markle’s all-time best royal looks

The Duchess of Sussex’s status as one of the world’s biggest influencers has been cemented by statistics from global fashion search platform Lyst. Meghan Markle’s varied looks always spark an increase in consumer searches for similar fashion, so on her 40th birthday, we’ve rounded up her all-time best looks.


Since becoming the Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle has ushered in a new wave of minimalist modernity to the British royal family’s style. Known for her monochromatic outfits, boat necklines, and wearable power coats, the trick is that each look seems effortless – and extremely comfortable to wear. She’s known to frequent designers like Givenchy and Dior, while also mixing in more affordable finds from brands like Artizia and J.Crew.

Below are ten of her greatest looks.

March, 2021

For her and Prince Harry’s tell-all Oprah interview, Meghan wore Princess Diana’s Cartier jewellery and a Giorgio Armani dress that fashion historians were quick to link to a similar one worn by Wallis Simpson.

Meghan Markle’s blue-and-white striped Ralph Lauren oxford tucked into white palazzo pants at Wimbledon was such an enduringly excellent outfit, Sienna Miller copied it this year.
