Since her marriage to Prince Harry in 2018, Meghan Markle has been celebrated as a modern style icon, seamlessly blending chic, professional attire with her regal duties.
However, fans will remember that her penchant for sophisticated fashion was in full display during her portrayal of paralegal Rachel Zane in the television series Suits.
Recently, the Duchess of Sussex drew inspiration from this beloved character, as evident from a video shared on the social platform X (formerly Twitter).
In the video, created in association with Fischer House and the Invictus Games, Meghan exuded corporate elegance, sporting a sharp striped blouse paired with a sleek black pencil skirt and high heels. She confidently addressed the veterans, once again showcasing her knack for blending style and substance.
This resurgence of her Suits style reminds us of a nostalgic post shared last month by her former co-star, Patrick J. Adams. In his now-removed post, Patrick had shared behind-the-scenes snaps from the set, revealing Meghan's timeless fashion sense.
One particularly striking picture showed her in a high-waisted grey skirt, complemented by a patterned white top adorned with a ruffled neckline. Her entire look was elevated with impeccable heels, and her hair cascading in wavy elegance.

Reflecting on their time filming the legal drama, Patrick shared a sentimental note saying, "I miss my friends", further deepening the bond fans felt with the cast.

Discussing the wardrobe choices of Meghan's character Rachel, the show's costume designer, Jolie Andreatta, told Harper's Bazaar US: "Meghan and I loved Rachel's clothes... Designing Rachel's look was like being a kid in a candy store."

While she's consistently incorporated elements from her Rachel Zane wardrobe into her duchess duties, Meghan often opts for floaty silk skirts, shirt dresses, and wide-leg suits for her public appearances.
But the Duchess knows when to switch gears. At the 2023 Invictus Games held in Düsseldorf, Meghan stunned attendees at the closing ceremony.

Her look was completed with a pair of nude heels and a gracefully styled low bun. Remarkably, the Duchess managed this stunning transformation without her trusted glam squad, having chosen to handle her styling personally throughout the trip.
Meghan's transition from the confident paralegal Rachel Zane to the Duchess of Sussex is a testament to her evolution, not just as a global style icon but as a woman of substance, effortlessly blending her love for fashion with her royal responsibilities.
