Meghan Markle attended the wedding of Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank in a classically elegant navy blue coat and matching dress.

Designed by Givenchy, The Duchess of Sussex’s choice of designer for the royal nuptials was significant, as it was the same designer that she wore for her own wedding to Prince Harry at St George’s Chapel, Windsor, in May.

Paired with a fascinator hat designed by milliner Noel Stewart, Markle wore a calf-length wool coat with high collar, atop a dress in the same shade and navy blue court shoes. She carried a pair of black gloves with her into the chapel to match the dark hues of her outfit.

Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex, wore a waistcoat in the same navy shade.
