Time magazine recently released its list of the 100 most influential people of the year. Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle were honored in the Icons category.
This is the first time the duo have posed for a magazine cover. “They have been groomed to near perfection by Hollywood’s best stylists,” commented The Telegraph . The people behind this look are stylist sisters Clare and Nina Hallworth.
Prince and his wife’s outfits in magazine
Prince Harry appeared on the cover wearing a black outfit with a bohemian bracelet. Meanwhile, Meghan Markle wore a crisp white jumpsuit with rolled-up sleeves. The contrast in color made the actress stand out even more.
Hairstylist James Johnson shared that the voluminous hair helps to highlight Meghan Markle’s authority. On the other hand, her strong posture conveys power. Meanwhile, the prince standing behind, leaning his hand on Meghan Markle’s shoulder shows feminism, wanting his wife to shine.
In addition, Prince Harry and his wife also brought a different look, with a more natural color. Meghan Markle wore an olive green suit with a white shirt. Contrary to the cover image, the actress appeared in a ton sur ton outfit with Prince Harry. She wore a turtleneck sweater, combined with a winter coat and long pants.
The duo’s look is unpretentious and simple. The outfits also represent an aesthetic that, according to The Telegraph ‘s Tamara Abraham , is also synonymous with “super-rich”.

The author is not talking about the wealth that can afford luxury handbags. Instead, Tamara Abraham argues that this wealth requires impeccably sourced fabrics, impeccable tailoring, and a complete lack of brand logos.
Phoebe Philo’s Céline, Brunello Cucinelli and Gabriela Hearst are all prominent brands that embody this luxury. In fact, the lack of logos is part of their appeal.
Meghan Markle’s olive green outfit comes from The Row. The brand is known for its luxurious, quality and timeless designs.
Fashion style after withdrawing from the royal family
Even in her royal days, Markle loved crisply tailored clothes. She also tried to stick to a single colour scheme. She was rarely seen in large prints or bright colours.
When she moved to Montecito, California, Meghan Markle’s style changed. The Zoe Report said the actress leaned more towards a sleek, workwear-inspired aesthetic.
To make the classic white outfit more meaningful, Meghan Markle wore Princess Diana’s gold Cartier Tank watch. This is a tribute to her late mother-in-law. Meghan Markle also wore two pink diamond rings by Shiffon. The pair represents the image of a woman supporting her husband.

Meghan Markle has been known to wear jewelry that has sentimental or personal value, so the watch and ring play a role in this theme.
On the other hand, the wide-leg, pleated trousers she wears on the cover are a stark contrast to the formal midi dresses she wore during her time as a British royal.
Vogue says that no matter where she is, Meghan Markle always uses fashion intentionally. Her outfits may seem simple. However, they often convey the values she holds dear, highlight her favorite designers or emphasize messages.
In addition, the bohemian bracelet symbolizes difference, separation from the aristocratic style that flows in the prince’s blood.
Prince Harry William usually wears classic suits in two main colors: navy blue and black. On the contrary, Prince Harry is interested in dark blue suits by Paul Smith or cool blue suits by J.Crew. However, this is the first time the prince has shown “adventure” in the field of tailoring. The forest green suit shows that the prince is not a stereotype.
