Throughout wedding season, Princess Kate and Meghan Markle have showcased their impeccable wedding guest fashion sense, always dressing appropriate for the occasion while ensuring not to overshadow the bride. Whether attending a royal wedding at St. George’s Chapel or a small parish ceremony, the royal sisters-in-law have been praised for their outfit choices, often accompanied by a fashionable hat to complete their look.
For Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s wedding, Princess Kate chose a pastel primrose yellow ensemble by Alexander McQueen, which she accessorized with a matching floral hat by Philip Treacy. Despite being less than a month postnatal at the time, having given birth to Prince Louis a few weeks prior, Kate looked elegant and radiant at the royal celebration. Meghan Markle, on the other hand, wore a classic color-blocked dress by Club Monaco for a friend’s wedding just three months after her own wedding, paired with a sculpted hat by Philip Treacy.
When attending Princess Eugenie’s wedding, Princess Kate opted for an autumnal color pop, wearing a bright fuchsia pink dress by Alexander McQueen with a matching hat by Philip Treacy. In contrast, Meghan Markle chose a monochrome look in navy, wearing a tailored coat and dress by Givenchy, the same designer who created her wedding gown. Meghan accessorized her outfit with a sculpted tulle hat by milliner Noel Stewart, adding a touch of elegance to her ensemble.
Overall, Princess Kate and Meghan Markle have demonstrated their flair for style and sophistication at various society weddings in 2018. Their fashion choices have been well-received, showcasing their ability to adapt their outfits to different wedding themes and locations. Whether attending royal celebrations or intimate ceremonies, the royal sisters-in-law have managed to strike the perfect balance between being fashionable and respecting the importance of the occasion.
