11 Royals Who Are Just as Stylish as Meghan Markle

by Nicole Akhtarzad Eshaghpour

I’m sorry! I’m just not that into Meghan Markle—or as we now call her: Meghan, Duchess of Sussex. I mean, she’s fine and all, but in terms of style, I don’t find her as inspiring as the rest of the internet seems to.

Maybe I’m just salty because she’s an American princess and I’m not, but nonetheless, there are a handful of other royal ladies from around the globe whose fashion choices I very much am into. You likely already know some, while you may have never heard of others, but one thing is for sure: They’re all worth keeping an eye on. To see the ladies who made my list and to read a little bit about each, simply continue on below. Then don’t think you’re done until you’ve shopped my princess-inspired picks at every price point.

Princess Charlene of Monaco

As a former Olympic swimmer for South Africa, Princess Charlene of Monaco may have been on our radar regardless of whether she married into royalty, but either way, we’re sure glad she is because this jumpsuit outfit is next level.

Princess Deena Aljuhani Abdulaziz

It’s no surprise that this princess-slash–fashion editor has unbelievable style, but that doesn’t stop me from getting excited every time the street style photographers snap her in a new fashion week outfit.

Lady Amelia Windsor

At only 22, the young royal is already a fixture on the fashion scene, taking her casual-cool style to shows and events and earning a spot on last year’s Vanity Fair International Best Dressed List.

Princess Sirivannavari Nariratana of Thailand

Fun fact: Aside from performing her royal duties and looking incredible on the front row at fashion week, Princess Sirivannavari Nariratana of Thailand (seen above attending Giambattista Valli Haute Couture earlier this month) also crushes it on the badminton field. Now that’s a triple threat I’d like to be.

Princess Maria-Olympia of Greece and Denmark

While there’s some disagreement on the internet about whether or not she’s really a royal, one thing is for sure—she’s got great style and an Instagram account to prove it.

Viscountess Emma Weymouth

Any royal who will wear a crop top and look this chic in it gets an A-plus in my book. Extra points for also being a Dolce & Gabbana Muse alongside Lady Kitty Spencer.

Ladies Alice and Violet Manners

As fixtures on the London social and party scenes (at least, that’s what the internet tells me), the Manners sisters not only look like incredible fun to hang out with, but they’ve also perfected the “coordinated but not too coordinated” sister outfit thing.

Lady Kitty Spencer

Since her spotlight-stealing Dolce & Gabbana royal wedding look, I’ve been mildly obsessed with Kitty Spencer’s simultaneously regal and rebellious style. Her uncanny likeness to her late aunt, Princess Diana, doesn’t hurt either.

Talita von Fürstenberg

As the granddaughter of Diane von Fürstenberg and Prince Egon von Fürstenberg of Germany, Talita von Fürstenberg has both style and royalty in her blood—as evidenced by her presence on the fashion circuit as well as her jet-setting Instagram activities.

Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge

You guessed it: I’m totally Team Kate. Call me a sucker for simple silhouettes and a good old-fashioned uniform, but I’ll always have a place for the Duchess of Cambridge on my best dressed list.
