This has been a whirlwind couple of weeks for the Duchess of Sussex, who has just finished her gruelling 16-day tour Down Under.
She undertook 76 engagements with more than 30 outfit changes — adding up to an eye-watering £130,107.50. Nearly all cost four figures, and a few cost five — with the highest a whopping £17,000 (the cheapest was a snip at £380).
All of her pricey favourite designers got a look-in, from Stella McCartney, Givenchy and Burberry to Australians, such as Dion Lee and Martin Grant or Kiwis like Karen Walker and Maggie Marilyn.
Where most people, especially Hollywood A-listers, would pull out their most extravagant, eye-catching creations, Meghan stayed classy with a subtle, often monochrome palette. Her wardrobe reflected causes close to her heart. Her black jeans were by Australian brand Outland Denim which employs women who have survived human trafficking.
Her environmentally friendly pointed-toe pumps were from Rothy’s — made from recycled bottles. The first splash of colour came for the state dinner in Fiji, with a bold ‘Fijian blue’ dress from British luxury label Safiyaa. The elegant, unfussy design was a wonderfully modern take on formalwear.
But all of this comes at a price. Here, we tot up the cost of Meghan’s incredibly lavish wardrobe . . .
