Royal Fashion Highlights from August Featuring Queen Mary and Meghan Markle

Fashion lovers were treated to a spectacular run of royal wardrobes this past August, with major sartorial statements from a few major players. Queen Mary of Denmark looked fantastic with a stylish return in a highly tailored suit. When designing, she revealed her passion for non-structured garments that mix class and comfort. Her reemergence has been, not surprisingly, heralded by her impeccable fashion as well. It further reaffirms her position as a sartorial power player in the royal world.

During the official opening of the UAE’s largest bank, Princess Beatrice wowed guests in a breathtaking ruffled gown. She was the ultimate combination of elegance and newfangledness. Her sartorial choices mark the September release of a royal trend that is taking on a classic look with a modern twist.

King Felipe and Queen Letizia of Spain shared a family-style meal with their daughters at a local tavern. They were joined on the walk by their daughters, Princess Leonor and Infanta Sofia. When the warm summer months finally arrived, the royal family leaned into sundresses. Both beautiful and functional, these dresses demonstrate the local designer’s ability to marry women’s fashion with functional streetwear.

Princess Rajwa of Jordan receiving the Tawjihi achievers for the 2024-2025 academic year. She paired it with an ultra-modern asymmetric ‘Jersey Knit Top and Pants Set in White’ created by CHATS by C.DAM x RIMA ZAHRAN. Her outfit selection highlights her commitment to modern fashion. It strikes a chord with younger generations and does so without sacrificing the dignity you would expect at royal engagements.

Interestingly enough, in an unrelated story, Meghan Markle stepped out recently in a sundress by Veronica Beard, cementing Markle’s fashion cred even more. She excited her supporters when she hinted at a preview of season two of her Netflix show “With Love, Meghan.” Along the way, she shared her passion for fashionable, easy-to-wear style. She slayed in a striped dress throughout the promotional tour for her show. This chic ensemble only added to the chatter surrounding her fashion.

The Duchess of Edinburgh made headlines with three separate outings last week, solidifying her position within the royal fashion narrative. Each public appearance has been punctuated by distinctly thought-out outfits which echo her distinct sartorial language without flouting or overstepping royal protocol.

Queen Letizia further enriched the month’s fashion highlights with a night-time outing to Joan Miro’s exhibition, attended by Princess Leonor and Infanta Sofia. Their matched ensembles not only exhibit their familial connection but demonstrate their combined efforts to represent the royal family through fashion.
