Fans accuse the Duchess of Sussex of copying the designer’s signature look during her latest public appearance.
Meghan Markle’s recent appearance at the Fortune Most Powerful Women Summit in Washington, D.C., turned heads for more than one reason. The Duchess of Sussex opted for a sleek, all-cream ensemble, but online observers were quick to point out its striking resemblance to a look once worn by Victoria Beckham.
The event saw Meghan discuss her and Harry’s partnership with Netflix and her new series, With Love, Meghan. While her remarks drew attention, it was her outfit that set social media alight. According to Express, fans suggested the Duchess may have taken “inspiration” from Victoria Beckham’s signature minimalist style.
One online user wrote, “Now that I see it, I can’t unsee it. It’s as if she thinks copying Victoria will help her show succeed.” Another added, “Ms. Markle clearly has a new girl crush.”
The comparisons come amid reports of a strained relationship between the Sussexes and the Beckhams. Rumours suggest that Harry once accused Victoria of leaking private details about Meghan to the media. Since then, David and Victoria Beckham have appeared to move closer to the royal family, often seen at events with King Charles, Prince William, and Catherine.
