How to Get Meghan Markle’s Wedding Day Style

Meghan Markle arguably changed the face of fashion with her wedding day style. Clean, simple and undeniably chic, the new Duchess of Sussex chose to wear a custom Givenchy wedding dress for her ceremony to Prince Harry and a high-neck crepe dress by designer Stella McCartney for the reception. Both dresses captured Meghan’s decidedly American style – structured and tailored. We love how she added even more drama with the addition of a cathedral length veil. Her veil, also made by the house of Givenchy, was hand embroidered with flowers from the Commonwealth – something Meghan specifically requested. Also embroidered on the veil were flowers that reminded Meghan of her hometown of LA and wheat stocks which symbolize peace and unity.

Meghan Markle’s long-sleeved off-the-shoulder dress was such a stunner, we know brides will be looking to copy her style for years to come. We love how she kept her dress clean and elegant. The relaxed fit-and-flare silhouette with slight train captured her style perfectly!

For brides who want to capture Meghan’s style on their own wedding day, think about a dress with long sleeves first! We love how the fabric in these gowns really shine. Long sleeves and an off-the-shoulder neckline are key, however, silhouettes with clean lines and wedding dresses with modern silhouettes are similar, too.
