27 of Meghan Markle's best fashion looks

The Duchess of Sussex has made a significant mark in the fashion industry with her sartorial choices since joining the royal family.

Following the announcement of her engagement to the Duke of Sussex in November 2017, royal fans, shoppers, buyers and designers regularly wait in anticipation to find out what Meghan will wear for a public appearance.

Over the years, the royal has shown her devotion to a select number of fashion houses, wearing designs by the likes of Brandon Maxwell, Roland Mouret, Dior and House of Nonie. The “Meghan effect” – the royal’s influence on the public’s shopping habits – has resulted in websites selling out of designs in seconds, months-long waiting lists for lesser known brands such as Hiut Denim, and copycat designs produced in hours appearing online after her wearing a certain look.

That said, the Californian-born star has also championed the British high street, wearing affordable looks by Marks and Spencer, Reiss, and H&M.

Of course, no brand is held in as high regard as Givenchy is for the royal. In May 2018, the duchess wore a white midi-length-sleeved dress with a boat-cut neckline designed by the French fashion house’s creative director, Clare Waight Keller, for her royal wedding to Prince Harry.

In the months that have followed, the mother-of-one has turned to the luxury brand on several occasions for appearances including her first solo outing with the Queen Elizabeth II, and visits to Royal Ascot and the Royal Academy of Arts.
