As far as regal couples go, none has pushed fashion boundaries more than Meghan and Harry. The American bride-to-be’s penchant for laid-back ensembles is giving the royal family’s usually conservative style a much-needed modern makeover – without losing the elegance they’re known for. Below, we break down three of the duo’s fit-for-aristocracy outfits so you can master the looks for yourself.

A flowy dress in an on-trend emerald green is a soft, feminine complement to the prince’s tailored suit and tie. To keep things feeling polished and ready for an official outing, add a sleek black blazer and suede pumps – but leaving your hair down means you won’t be too buttoned-up.

Want to make an impact at your next appearance? Go monochrome. A gorgeous allover cream is bold and beautiful (beret optional, but so recommended) and is sure to stand out from the crowd. Stick to streamlined silhouettes and a natural beauty look to tone down the drama – a princess is never over the top. For the guys, match a tie to your jacket for a sharp, traditional vibe.

Power dressing as a couple is all about color coordinating. Work the room together in a trusted navy suit and a matching midi dress – your style will be all the statement you need, without saying a word. Opt for a loose updo and a subtle print for approachability.
