The Duchess of Sussex arrived at the Nigerian Defence Headquarters in Abuja this month looking both elegant and ethereal in a white St Agni Studio strapless gown that would not have looked out of place at the heart of a wedding.

Styled with her signature tousled bun, the radiant look mirrored the shoulder-bearing ensembles she wore on her big day at St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle in 2018, which became one of the most celebrated royal fashion moments in history.

But this is not the first time Meghan has stunned in a white dress and given us bridal inspiration.

The former actress has stepped out in white power suits, flowing ivory gowns and flirty mini dresses since marrying Prince Harry, following a pattern that leaves us wondering if she’s forever en route to her next wedding.

In Tonga in 2018, Meghan looked as radiant as any bride for a state dinner. She wore a Theia gown with structured capped sleeves and a touch of sparkle on the shoulders which could have easily been plucked from a bridal boutique

Where Kate Middleton‘s signature style is dress coats, tailoring and glittering glamour on the red carpet, it appears Meghan’s might just be the wedding dress, or something remarkably close to it.

Aside from her famed wedding gown, floor-length white frocks reign supreme for the Duchess.

Another addition to Meghan’s collection of bridal-esque ensembles made its debut in Tonga in 2018 shortly after her nuptials, when she looked radiant for a state dinner wearing a Theia gown.

It boasted structured capped sleeves and a touch of sparkle on the shoulders, which could have easily been plucked from a bridal boutique. It prompted the question: is this her third wedding dress?

Continuing her bridal-inspired fashion streak on the royal 16-day trip through Australia in 2018, there were more notable white dresses. First was a simple shift dress by local designer Karen Zee which was both regal and relaxed, and then came an ivory Zimmermann frock topped with a Stephen Jones fascinator, making Meghan look every bit the modern bride.

Next was the Maggie Marilyn chic white tuxedo dress she stepped out in on the same tour, followed by a striking white Louis Vuitton dress worn during a visit to New York in 2022. Both fit for a regal princess, their structured silhouettes elevated the designs from simple white dresses to statement pieces worthy of an impromptu wedding ceremony.

Recently Meghan shook up her bridal wardrobe with a crisp white Altuzarra suit in Nigeria that seemed tailor-made for a stylish registry office wedding.

Paired with minimal accessories, the sharp lines and impeccable fit exuded sophistication while maintaining an air of simplicity. This look was quintessentially Meghan and another example of how she infuses her workwear wardrobe with a touch of matrimonial magic.

Let’s rewind to her actual wedding, the royal one, not the metaphorical fashion ones. Meghan’s choice for her wedding evening reception was a sleek, halter-neck Stella McCartney dress that oozed elegance and modernity. The epitome of understated chic, it perfectly complemented the grandeur of her ceremony dress designed by Clare Waight Keller for Givenchy. While the first dress was all about the fairy tale, the second was about sleek sophistication. And since then, it seems Meghan has kept a piece of that bridal magic in her wardrobe and is always ready to say, ‘I do.’
