Meghan manages to look effortlessly elegant, whether she’s rocking a glam evening gown or a pair of high-waisted jeans.

Princess Diana ripped up the royal dressing book with her figure-flattering, low-cut frocks, androgynous suits and chic coats – and it looks like Meghan is emulating her style.

Alex Longmore, a top celebrity stylist, told The Sun Online: “Meghan will become the number one fashion icon because her appeal is worldwide. I don’t like to compare her to Princess Diana because she’s her own person but the phenomenon is just as big. There is so much positivity around her and people relate to her.”

Here, we take a look at some of Meghan’s outfits that pay homage to Diana’s timeless look.
