Meghan Markle Looks That Won Over Even Her Harshest Critics

In her own words, Meghan Markle has often spoken about the intense attention she receives online. Still, her fashion choices have consistently drawn notice, even amid that scrutiny. Despite the constant spotlight on her wardrobe, several of her looks have stood out for the right reasons. Here’s a look at some of her standout ensembles that earned praise from fashion watchers.

Meghan Markle showed how a simple tan suit can look effortlessly chic with her outfit at the TIME100 Summit 2025. She paired a tucked-in white button-down shirt with a belt, layering it with a long jacket with rolled-up sleeves and loose, wide-leg trousers. From the proportions to the overall silhouette, the look stands out as a strong inspiration for polished office wear.

The Duchess of Sussex might not like to associate herself with the word “royalty” now, but there was a time when she used to get her look for the royal events right, leaving no room for complaint. At the late Queen Elizabeth II's Platinum Jubilee in 2022, she went for a white Dior Haute Couture coat with matching accessories. She paired up the look with pristine white gloves, pumps, and an oversized hat, which further elevated the look.

The former Suits actress had graced the Archewell Foundation Parents' Summit in 2023 to offer her views on Mental Wellness in the Digital Age. She opted for a subtle yet stylish monochrome look, which seemed to be apt for the occasion. She went for an off-shoulder off-white top with coordinated white pants. The mother of two went for elegant detailing, which included light grey pumps, a messy bun, minimal makeup, and a simple necklace.

Meghan Markle looked super chic and refined in this all-maroon look, which she opted for on a 2021 trip to the Big Apple. The As Ever founder paired her maroon Loro Piana coat with a matching top, pants, and shoes. The look was a perfect example of how she has mastered the art of making heads turn in a subtle ensemble, and make it look modish and dapper.

Meghan attended the Mountbatten Music Festival in 2020, where she went for this dazzling all-red ensemble. The bold red Safiyaa gown complemented the With Love, Meghan star’s frame flawlessly and had a stylish matching cape with a high neckline. She further paired the look with a red clutch, dangler earrings, and pumps. Her sleek hairdo was like a cherry on top.

Meanwhile, in a recent interaction with The Australian Women’s Weekly during her recent Australia tour, she spoke about the importance of crediting the designers behind her outfits.

Meghan Markle said, “Fashion is one of the most powerful industries. It influences how we feel and what we project. And even if you don’t say a word, you can convey something in what you wear. Over the last several years, I would hear about an incorrect designer getting credit for something I wore, either via affiliate links or press, and that never seemed fair. Credit where credit is due. These brands and designers work so hard and take great pride in their work, and I choose them for a reason. Either supporting a friend, being brand loyal, or the reasons I mentioned earlier.”
