All eyes were on Meghan Markle as she made her first official appearance alongside the queen during Monday's Commonwealth Day service. Her white and navy ensemble paired perfectly with future sister-in-law Kate Middleton's navy coat, though Middleton wasn't the only royal family member Markle turned to for fashion inspiration — she also wore some of Princess Diana's favorite designers. Her $1,199 white coat was designed by one of Diana's preferred designers Amanda Wakely, and her custom-made white beret was designed by Stephen Jones — who Diana worked with to create some of her most iconic looks. Royal watchers and Twitter users were quick to pick up on the subtle nod to her fiancé's late mother, and some people found it emotional, especially after CNN Reporter Kate Bennett tweeted about it.
