UNITED KINGDOM:(The COW News Digital)- Since stepping into the royal spotlight, Meghan Markle’s fashion transformation has been nothing short of dramatic and familiar.
Once the embodiment of Hollywood glam, the Duchess of Sussex made her royal debut with body-hugging dresses, distressed jeans, and sky-high stilettos that spoke more red carpet than royal protocol. But after marrying Prince Harry and embracing life within The Firm, Meghan’s style has evolved — swapping starlet sparkle for sovereign sophistication.
And in doing so, she appears to have looked no further than the Princess of Wales for fashion cues.
According to MailOnline, royal watchers have pointed out striking similarities between Meghan’s wardrobe and that of her sister-in-law Kate Middleton.
From tailored coats and classic midi dresses to check prints and elegant evening gowns, Meghan’s outfits have begun to echo Kate’s signature style, sparking a wave of déjà vu among fashion fans and royal commentators alike.
Gone are the floppy fedoras and American power brands once favoured by Meghan. In their place: British designers, pillbox hats, and subtle silhouettes that mirror Kate’s polished, traditional aesthetic. Meghan now dons labels like Stella McCartney and Victoria Beckham, in line with Kate’s go-to fashion houses such as Alexander McQueen, Jenny Packham, and Catherine Walker.
Kate has long walked the tightrope between modern elegance and royal restraint, often repeating outfits to champion sustainability and win public admiration. Meghan, too, seems to be embracing that royal balance, trading trendsetting for timeless.
