Best Meghan Markle style moments you can steal for yourself: from occasion dresses and smart suit tailoring to simple wardrobe staples
Meghan Markle has managed to cram in a lot of iconic fashion moments in the years since she was catapulted into the spotlight for dating Prince Harry.
Of course we all remember the Suits star’s dreamy Givenchy wedding gown, but plenty of her best outfits – by labels such as Emilia Wickstead, Victoria Beckham and Ralph Lauren – are all relatively easy to recreate.
The Duchess of Sussex really mixed things up a bit during her time as a working royal, championing brands with a story and introducing us to new names. Nowadays her style is a bit more California cool, but she’s still providing us with plenty of inspiration from across the pond!
From block colour dresses to Breton stripes, bow heels and beautiful tailoring, you’re found to find something that Suits….
Dresses fit for a Duchess
This emerald green dress from Oasis is a great match from the Emilia Wickstead design the duchess wore to the Commonwealth Day service at Westminster Abbey back in March 2020.
The draped neckline, the mid-calf length, the striking colour… all you need is a matching headpiece and you’ve got Meghan’s glamorous green spot on.
Remember that image of Meghan and Harry in the rain? Her aqua blue dress is was one of our all-time favourites!
It’s by Victoria Beckham, and the good news is it’s still available to buy.
It’s an investment piece, but that figure-flattering silhouette will work hard in your wardrobe for years. The simple T-shirt sleeves are super flattering too.
Meghan loves a trench dress. You’ll recall she wore a white one when she showed off her brand new bundle of joy, baby Archie!
This Karen Millen dress is very reminiscent of the styles she’s got by Banana Republic and House of Nonie.
What a refreshing twist on the traditional trench!
Meghan-approved wardrobe staples
Those images of Harry and Meghan announcing their engagement went round the world, and aside from the sparkling rock on her ring finger, the thing we remember most is the bride-to-be’s white coat.
Her Line The Label style has long sold out, but for just £18.69, this wintry white Amazon option is a total bargain. It’s a no-brainer!
Meghan loves La Ligne, and has several striped knits by the brand in her wardrobe.
This classic style is a great place to start your collection!
Adele, Olivia Wilde and Dr. Jill Biden are all big fans of the brand too, so you’ll be in good company.
Her Cartier Love bangle is one of Meghan’s most-worn pieces of jewellery.
But since prices for the real deal run into the thousands, why not snap up this lookalike from Abbott Lyon?
At £69, it would make a great Christmas present…
We’re still swooning over the Celine boucle blazer Meghan wore with blue Moussy jeans back in April 2022.
The metallic buttons and pockets on this style are almost exactly the same. High end on a high street budget? Winner!
Both the Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton have worn Aquazzura’s dreamy ‘Bow Tie’ heels, but Amazon’s take on the trend will set you back around 10% of the price.
These are the perfect heel height to see you through all the Christmas parties you’ve got in the diary.
We can’t do a Meghan style roundup without mentioning camel coats. She loves them!
From Max Mara to Ralph Lauren Collection, she’s got a real range in her outerwear wardrobe, but do you remember the Reiss style she wore on an engagement back in January 2020?
This is a new season version, but will do the trick perfectly.
This leather handbag has lived rent-free in our head since Meghan carried it back in January 2018.
Meghan really helped put DeMellier on the map, and the forest green shade is giving us all the autumnal feels. Plus it’s the perfect size for all your essentials.
The top hand and tassel trim are nice touches too!
A modern twist on tailoring
Meghan looked so effortlessly chic when she went along to watch the tennis at Wimbledon in 2018, wearing this blue and white striped shirt with a pair of cream silk trousers.
When it comes to stripes, we say go big or go home, and it doesn’t get any preppier than Ralph Lauren.
An investment piece, but one you’ll treasure forever!
Much like her sister-in-law Kate Middleton, Meghan is a big fan of sharp tailoring.
We’ve spotted wearing white trouser suits by the likes of Valentino and Proenza Schouler.
This Nadine Merabi two-piece is a luxe alternative to a little black dress this festive season, and it even features little pearl detailing down the sleeves.
Ooh the Gabriela Hearst ‘Vicky’ jumpsuit was SO good.
At just under £4000, if your budget doesn’t stretch quite that far, this stylish strapless jumpsuit is the perfect match.
Wear yours with sky high heels and swept-up hair to show off the neckline.
