Megan Markle Faces Fashion Snub After Kate’s Affordable Dress Outshines Her
Megan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, is reportedly experiencing a significant snub from top fashion designers as she falls out of favor in the industry.
Lady Colin Campbell recently revealed that Megan is no longer the flavor of the month among couturiers.
In a YouTube video, Lady Colin explained how fashion houses choose whom they want to dress, stating that Megan's good looks and high-profile status made her an ideal candidate in the past.
However, the top-line couturiers are now less interested in dressing her.
In contrast, Megan's sister-in-law, Catherine, the Duchess of Cambridge, is known for her impeccable style, often mixing designer pieces with affordable finds.
Lady Colin pointed out that designers are eager to dress Catherine due to her beauty, ability to wear clothes beautifully, and perfect figure.
Megan, on the other hand, has been struggling to maintain the same level of interest from top fashion houses.
During a recent event in London, Catherine showcased her usual elegant style in a black and white midi dress.
The outfit appeared to be worth hundreds of dollars, but it was actually a budget-friendly purchase from Zara, costing around $30.
Catherine is known for re-wearing her frocks and incorporating more affordable clothing and accessories into her wardrobe.
She paired the chic dress with grey Hugo Boss pumps and silver earrings.
In contrast, Megan splurged nearly £67,000 on designer clothes and jewelry during her three-day trip to New York last month.
From Cartier watches to expensive coats and a white Valentino dress, her designer wardrobe totaled an estimated retail value of £66,879.
However, some criticized her choices, suggesting that the outfits were not suitable for the unseasonably warm 76°F weather in New York.
Additionally, there were comments about her inability to hide her baby fat, despite spending a significant amount on designer fashion.
Before marrying Prince Harry and entering the international spotlight, Megan had a very different style.
In a 2017 interview with Glamour magazine, she mentioned that her sensibility was always that of a relaxed California girl, often seen in jeans, cut-offs, and flip-flops.
However, filming the show “Suits” in Toronto exposed her to a new fashion scene, which influenced her style.
She learned about designers and what suits her body well.
Megan also shared that although she loves Victoria Beckham dresses, her body shape doesn't support that silhouette.
On the show, she wore a lot of Burberry and Prabal Gurung, as her character's aesthetic reflected someone from a wealthy background with a classic design sensibility.
As Megan faces the fashion snub, it is evident that Catherine's ability to mix high-end pieces with affordable fashion has made her a favorite among designers.
Megan's extravagant spending on designer clothes may have contributed to her decline in popularity within the fashion industry.
It remains to be seen how she will navigate this setback and redefine her style going forward.
