The subtle link between Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton's fashion choices revealed as Duchess of Sussex follows royal tradition
Daily MailIt's normally the Princess of Wales who is given the title the queen of royal recycling. Stepping out in 2019 for a visit to the District 6 Museum during their royal tour of South Africa, Meghan’s blue Veronica Beard button-down midi-dress had an air of familiarity. She first wore the plunging, silk-faille dress back in November 2021 to the Intrepid Museum’s Salute To Freedom Gala with a matching sweeping train attached at the waist On the final day of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s royal tour of Africa, Markle recycled yet another trusty royal wardrobe outfit for her meeting with Nelson Mandela’s widow, politician Graça Machel, a beige sleeveless trench coat dress by Canadian label Nonie. The striped dress had been seen a year earlier on Bondi Beach and was teamed with sand-appropriate Castaner espadrilles and Karen Walker earrings, although for its second appearance Meghan kept the footwear the same but opted for different jewels When Prince Harry and Meghan Markle stepped out for a photocall following their official engagement announcement in 2017, Meghan wore a white wrap coat from Line the Label over an emerald green fitted Parosh dress and cream Aquazzura heels. Meghan originally wore it in Birkenhead at the start of 2019 when she was six months pregnant with baby Archie Meghan Markle opted for a sleek black coat by Stella McCartney with a ribbon belt for her third royal appearance with Prince Harry in Cardiff in 2018.
