From Feminine to Modern — How Kate and Meghan Put Their Own Spin on the Royal Wedding Dress

23/05/2018 - 04:15 PM

The Duchess of Cambridge wowed the world when she married Prince William in a superbly feminine Alexander McQueen gown [1]. Now, Meghan Markle [2] has done the same in a stunning gown designed by Clare Waight Keller for Givenchy [3].

On May 19, the former Suits actress said "I do" to Prince Harry, finally revealing her wedding dress which she accessorised with a pair of satin pumps [4], gorgeous jewels [5], a stunning veil [6], and an incredibly sparkly tiara [7].

After months of speculation, we weren't exactly surprised to see that Meghan opted for a modest yet incredibly elegant gown, but we loved seeing her take on the royal wedding dress [8]. While it was very different from Kate's, which had a longer train and was made of lace, both designs still had a few details in common, such as the A-line silhouette and the long sleeves. Read on to see photos of the two beautiful royal brides, side by side.
