Meghan Markle ‘inspired’ by Princess Kate as duchess channels her ‘key’ move

Meghan Markle’s latest style choice was “inspired” by the Princess of Wales’s long history of promoting sustainability, according to a report.

The Duchess of Sussex rewore a striking red dress for a charity event in LA during the weekend – a garment which she has previously worn before.

Meghan first sported the dress in 2021 overskirt to attend the Salute To Freedom Gala in New York with Prince Harry.

But the original silhouette featured a voluminous overskirt, which Meghan had removed for Saturday’s charity gala.

And now according to GB News’s Dorothy Reddin, the move was very “reminiscent” of Princess Kate, who has long been an advocate of sustainability through her fashion choices.

She wrote: “This upcycling tactic is a hallmark of Kate’s thrifty approach to royal fashion.”

The Princess of Wales has been known for altering garments throughout the years.

Her most recent example, which was even labelled a “masterclass in sustainable fashion”, was when she attended the Trooping the Colour celebrations earlier in the summer.

Kate donned a recycled black and white dress by Jenny Packham she had worn on various occasions in 2023.
