Princess Eugenie's revived fashion bears a striking resemblance to Meghan Markle's minimalist stealth wealth look
Share this @internewscast.com

On Easter Sunday this year, Princess Eugenie made an appearance in a stylish cream trench paired with a coordinating neat hat, evoking a noticeable similarity to the fashion sense of a certain duchess.

Moving away from the vivid florals and playful fascinators that once characterized her royal attire, Eugenie’s outfit was understatedly elegant, intentionally simplified, and unmistakably akin to Meghan Markle’s trademark style.

Gone are the days when the princess opted for punchy prints or experimental cuts.

Instead, her fashion choices appear to echo Meghan’s minimalist, stealth wealth aesthetic.

This change in her style has caught the public’s eye. From her selection of brands to her fondness for neutral shades and minimalistic designs, Eugenie’s developing wardrobe seems increasingly influenced by Meghan’s fashion approach, which emphasizes subtle refinement over flashy glamour.

Part of this alignment comes down to their overlapping tastes in designers.

Meghan has long favoured labels such as Aquazzura, Fendi and jewellery designer Sophie Lis, and now Eugenie has been spotted in the very same names.

Polka dots remain a favored and recurrent fashion element for the royal family, with Meghan and Eugenie both embracing the pattern alongside other fashionable royals. Wearing dots at the Buckingham Palace garden party this year, Eugenie channeled Princess Diana in a navy short-sleeve dress adorned with white polka dots by Rixo, complemented by a matching hat. Similarly, Meghan wore a dot-adorned outfit to attend the polo in Santa Barbara in 2022.

Drawing inspiration from Meghan’s understated luxury style, Princess Eugenie also selected a crisp cream ensemble for Easter Sunday, choosing a white belted trench coat from Reiss paired with an Emily London pillbox hat featuring veiled netting.

At the King’s Coronation in 2023, pregnant Princess Eugenie showcased her maternity style in a sophisticated navy Fendi dress and coat, accessorized with a matching hat. Likewise, when Meghan was pregnant and attended Princess Eugenie’s wedding five years earlier, she opted for a complete navy look from Givenchy, complemented by a similar headpiece by Noel Stewart in a matching hue.

Meghan has long worn Aquazzura heels, distinctive for their cut-outs and towering heels and most notably wore them when she stepped out in a criss-cross design to announce her engagement with Prince Harry. At the Duke of Westminster and Olivia Henson’s wedding Eugenie chose the same style from the Italian shoe brand

Both women chose styles which feature Grecian-inspired draping for an elevated take on eveningwear. Meghan debuted the style and shade when she chose an emerald Emilia Wickstead ensemble for the Commonwealth Day service in 2020. Fast forward a few years and there was a sense of déjà vu as Eugenie walked the red carpet for Vogue World

This alignment is not accidental. By choosing the same designers, Eugenie places herself firmly in the realm of modern royals who embrace international fashion houses while sidestepping ostentation.

It’s a savvy move that signals both polish and relatability, much like Meghan’s own strategy.

Meghan has championed unfussy silhouettes, tailored dresses, belted shirt dresses, sleek co-ords, and flowing skirts that skim rather than cling.

Eugenie, once known for more playful experimentation, appears to have embraced this ethos, swapping to streamlined midi dresses, classic wrap shapes, and tailored separates.

The shift is striking. Where once her style seemed to oscillate between youthful exuberance and traditional royal formality, she has now landed on a formula that marries modernity with composure.

This quiet luxury approach allows Eugenie to stand out precisely because she does not shout. She embodies a subtler kind of confidence, one that resonates with a new generation who value authenticity over artifice.

Ultimately, Princess Eugenie’s new look is more than a nod to Meghan’s wardrobe. It is a declaration of her own fashion maturity. She is no longer the young princess experimenting with flamboyant fascinators or eye-catching prints.

Instead, she has embraced a quieter kind of elegance, one that prioritises polish over pomp, ease over excess.

It is a wardrobe that feels contemporary, cosmopolitan, and quietly confident, all hallmarks of Meghan Markle’s influence.

Eugenie attended King Charles’s pre-Christmas lunch this year and wore an accessory with a special meaning. For the occasion, she donned the Sophie Lis Fallen Star Hoop Earrings which feature a hoop with a bedazzled charm shaped like the North star that signifies protection. Markle also wore the same earrings during one of her last engagements before stepping down as a working royal while chatting with Commonwealth scholars at Buckingham Palace.

At the Duke of Westminster and Olivia Henson’s wedding Eugenie chose the same style from the Italian shoe brand. With a four-inch heel and delicate straps that tie at the back of the ankle, they’re the perfect wedding guest shoe.
