The Princess of Wales and the Duchess of Sussex may have distinct personal style, but over the years, they’ve shown a surprising overlap in their fashion choices.
Both women have become global icons in their own right – Kate for her polished elegance and Meghan for her modern sophistication.
Yet, despite their differing fashion reputations, there have been multiple occasions where they’ve worn strikingly similar, if not identical, pieces.
Think classic striped shirts and sleek court shoes – timeless staples both royals swear by.
The best part? You can shop their go-to looks right now.
Ralph Lauren Collection striped shirt
During a recent visit to the RHS Wellbeing Garden at Colchester Hospital, Kate brought back her Blazé Milano blazer and cigarette trousers, styling them with a fresh addition: a Ralph Lauren Collection striped shirt in white and camel tones.
Meghan had previously sported the same design in blue and white when she attended the 2018 Wimbledon Ladies’ Singles Final alongside Kate.
Meghan’s exact shirt is still available to buy, while a linen iteration delivers a summer-ready twist on Kate’s.
Strathberry bags
Both Kate and Meghan have a soft spot for Strathberry, the Edinburgh-based luxury leather goods label.
Kate favours smaller designs, having carried four styles to date: the Mosaic Nano Bag and three versions of the Multrees Chain Wallet.
Most recently, she opted for the vanilla-hued wallet for the Order of the Garter, pairing it with a coordinating Self-Portrait dress.
Meghan leans towards roomier silhouettes, often choosing the Midi Tote with Strathberry’s signature bar closure.
While visiting Scotland in 2018, she chose the East/West Mini Crossbody in bottle green, which is still available to buy.
Castañer espadrille wedges
Castañer wedges are another shared style favourite of the two royal women.
Since 2019, Kate has elevated more than a dozen looks with her trusty Carina 80 wedges in brown suede – from a royal tour of the Bahamas to a day at the Chelsea Flower Show.
Meghan opts for the black version, featuring the same canvas fabric, a 3-inch jute wedge heel and wider ankle ties.
She famously packed them for her 2019 tour of Africa with Harry, pairing them with a patterned Mayamiko dress and a sky blue shirt dress by Veronica Beard.
Fortunately, both versions are available to buy, but they’re guaranteed to sell out.
Mother Dazzler jeans
Kate often turns to jeans for relaxed royal outings.
In October 2023, she debuted Mother’s Dazzler Jeans in the ‘Now Or Never’ deep indigo wash, rewearing them the following month.
Meghan appeared to follow suit in her Netflix series With Love, Meghan, wearing the same style in a lighter blue wash with a printed sweatshirt for a gardening scene.
Kate’s jeans may have sold out, but you can snag a pair in the new indigo wash, ‘Chip on my Shoulder’ – plus Meghan’s exact style.
Veja trainers
Kate is a dedicated fan of Veja’s gold Esplar trainers, wearing them at least ten times in public – from the Big Coronation Lunch to a family video marking the end of her chemotherapy treatment.
Meghan has shown her support for the brand too, choosing the V-10 trainers during the 2018 Invictus Games in Sydney. The monochrome design was created to celebrate Veja’s 10th anniversary of sustainable footwear.
Both styles are brand staples, delivering a clean, versatile aesthetic that pairs with everything from smart tailoring to casual weekend looks.
Aquazzura court shoes
Meghan’s love affair with Aquazzura began in 2014, well before meeting Prince Harry.
She has worn the brand’s shoes publicly on 36 occasions, with the Bow Tie Pumps (previously named Deneuve) being a clear favourite – she owns them in black, navy, pink and taupe.
Kate later added the same style to her wardrobe, picking up blush and black versions.
She has worn them for standout moments, such as the 2021 G7 Summit Reception, the 2023 pre-Coronation lunch at Buckingham Palace, and the National Portrait Gallery reopening later that year.
With their sleek cut out design, tie detailing and sky-high stiletto, these shoes are an instant show-stopper.
Alexander McQueen blazer
Kate is a devoted fan of Alexander McQueen’s tailored suits, instantly recognisable for their signature slanted pockets that create a flattering, waist-defining shape.
Her extensive collection includes multiple versions in pastel pink, navy, and ivory, often styled as part of chic trouser suits worn on countless occasions.
It’s little wonder the brand’s suits have found also found a place in Meghan’s wardrobe.
She has worn the black Grain de Poudre two-piece three times – most notably at the 2019 Endeavour Fund Awards at Goldsmith’s Hall.
Currently available in classic navy, this timeless suit blends luxe fabrics with impeccable detailing, ensuring it will remain a favourite for years to come.
Ralph Lauren court shoes
Ralph Lauren’s Celia court shoes have secured a place in both royal wardrobes – albeit in different colours.
Kate owns them in classic black leather and versatile camel, while Meghan’s collection includes olive and brown suede versions.
Both royals have worn the style on notable occasions. Meghan debuted the olive pair at Prince Louis’ christening and sported the brown version during the Invictus Games in both 2022 and 2025.
Kate has worn her camel pair eight times, including four appearances this year alone – making them a must-have in our book.
