Meghan Markle’s jumpsuit compared to Kate Middleton’s dress

Meghan Markle is loving life in NYC.

Last night, the Duchess of Sussex stepped out in a black-and-white jumpsuit by Gabriela Hearst — and fans on social media were quick to point out the similarity to a gown recently worn by her sister-in-law, Kate Middleton.

Markle, 40, looked sleek in her strapless outfit as she joined Prince Harry, 37, for dinner at Locanda Verde after the two visited the United Nations to mark Nelson Mandela Day.

Wearing a strapless black jumpsuit with flared legs, black and white ties at the back and a wide white band at the top, the duchess’ look was similar in style to the Roland Mouret dress the Duchess of Cambridge wore to the “Top Gun: Maverick” premiere.

Markle wore her hair in a sleek ponytail for her dinner date, adding minimal accessories including black Aquazurra sandals ($725) and a Shiffon 18k gold diamond “1972 tennis” pinky ring ($2,800) and 14k gold “Duet” pinky ring ($595).

Unsurprisingly, Team Meghan and Team Kate had different opinions on the look.

“Wow this outfit looks familiar. Where have we seen it before?” one fan commented. “Right, the Duchess of Cambridge wore something similar to the Top Gun Maverick Premiere. Too bad Megs isn’t original.”

A Sussex fan clapped back, writing, “The pick me’s have arrived! Kate’s dress was actually the same designer and style as something Meghan had worn previously. Meghan knows how to modernise and style a look. She looks fabulous here.”

Meanwhile, more fans argued on Twitter. “Its so so different,” a Meghan fan wrote. “Look at the back. Meghan markle is a style icon. Kate looks to her for styles.”

“Of course. Catherine has far better taste,” a Middleton fan replied.

Markle and Middleton aren’t the only ones choosing the banded, monochromatic look; Scarlett Johannsen wore the exact same jumpsuit as Meghan to the People’s Choice Awards in 2021, and Queen Maxima of the Netherlands wore a jumpsuit version of Kate’s Roland Mouret gown back in 2017.

Another royal watcher tweeted a side-by-side photo of the two duchesses with an Oscar Wilde quote, stating “Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery that mediocrity can pay to greatness.”

At the end of the day, the Duchess of Cambridge’s look probably isn’t where the duchess drew her inspiration; Markle has been a fan of Gabriela Hearst designs for years.

No matter who’s your favorite, we’re loving this black-and-white look on both duchesses — no comparisons needed.
