in on Saturday, May 19th, 2018 to see American actress Meghan Markle marry Prince Harry. As usual, the extended royal family attended
the wedding, but Markle's close connections to Hollywood also meant that the event featured
quite a few well-known American celebrities as well. All of the guests dove deep into British fashion
for the event, pulling out all the stops with regal suits and elaborate fascinators and
accessories. Here are some of the best dressed attendees.
George and Amal Clooney The Clooneys were definitely among the most
fashionable at the royal wedding, with Amal looking absolutely stunning in a mustard yellow
custom Stella McCartney dress and matching fascinator, complete with a bejeweled veil. George didn't go with quite as bold of a color
choice as his wife, but he did match her in a light grey suit and a light yellow tie. Meghan and Amal reportedly became friends
once Meghan moved to the United Kingdom, with a People source saying that the pair have
a number of shared interests. Luckily for Markle, her new digs will keep
her friend close, with the Clooneys settling down with their young twins in a home just
a 30-minute drive away from Windsor Castle.
Pippa Middleton She had an important part to play in the last
royal wedding as the maid of honor to her sister Kate, and even though this time around
Pippa Middleton was just attending as a guest, she didn't let her fashion sense slip. Middleton looked fabulous in a simple, light
green floral dress as she arrived with her husband, James Matthews. Middleton's dress is actually available online
for anyone who wants to get her look, although you'll need to drop a cool $695 at The Fold
in London for the privilege. Priyanka Chopra The Quantico actress and friend of Meghan
Markle had a bit of a scare shortly before the royal wedding, sharing on Instagram that
her dress still wasn't ready just the night before the event.
Luckily, everything ended up coming together
and Priyanka Chopra wound up looking like a princess herself in a grey Vivienne Westwood
dress and airy Philip Treacy hat. Chopra also had a pretty, spring-like makeup
look, courtesy of Pati Dubroff, who highlighted Chopra's look on her Instagram. Lady Kitty Spencer Forest green is not a color you often see
in high fashion, but Lady Kitty Spencer made a pretty convincing argument for it with her
royal wedding dress. Spencer, the niece of the late Princess Diana,
wore a dark green Dolce & Gabbana dress with a floral skirt and a feathered matching fascinator.
The picture of grace and elegance, she accompanied
her ensemble with orange shoes, tuned to match the flowers on her dress. Oprah Winfrey Of course Oprah scored an invite to the royal
wedding. The queen of the entertainment world looked
regal in a pale pink Stella McCartney dress, complete with matching pumps and a flowered
hat courtesy of designer Philip Treacy. The actress looked absolutely stunning in
her dress, although, as it turns out, she nearly had a fashion faux pas take over her
day.
As Oprah's close friend Gayle King revealed
during her commentary on CBS' This Morning, Oprah had initially planned to wear a cream
dress to the wedding, but realized the day before that the dress was a little bit too
close to bridal white. Abigail Spencer Markle's Suits co-stars were some of the fashion
stars of the royal wedding. Abigail Spencer, who played Dana "Scottie"
Scott on the series, looked fabulous and served up some 1930s vibes in a blue polka-dot dress
from Alessandra Rich, accessorizing with a floral fascinator. Gina Torres Another one of Markle's former Suits co-stars,
Gina Torres looked absolutely stunning in a red and white Costarellos dress, along with
a matching nude clutch and fedora.
The actress was all smiles on the happy day,
and she has a lot to celebrate: She's about to get her own Suits spin-off on USA. Kate Middleton She gave birth to her third child with Prince
William just a month ago, but that didn't stop Kate Middleton from looking fabulous
at the royal wedding. The Duchess of Cambridge showed up to the
wedding in a primrose yellow silk tailored coat from Alexander McQueen. She completed her ensemble with a Philip Treacy
hat and Jimmy Choo shoes.
McQueen was also the designer Middleton wore
for her own wedding in 2011. Sofia Wellesley Many on social media were surprised to see
that singer James Blunt scored an invite to the royal wedding, but it was really his wife,
Sofia Wellesley, who stole the show. Wellesley looked stunning in a floral Valentino
gown, complete with strappy heels and a cream fascinator. Wellesley, a British socialite, married the
"Beautiful" singer in 2014.
David Beckham Victoria Beckham is usually the fashion queen,
and although she looked fabulous in a navy suit at the royal wedding, it was her husband
David who really stood out. David looked dapper in a grey vest and long
black suit, while Victoria paired her long dress with bright red heels and a dark blue
fascinator. This isn't the first royal wedding the Beckhams
have attended: they were also at Prince William's wedding to Kate Middleton in 2011. Serena Williams Markle's longtime friend Serena Williams was
dazzling at the wedding ceremony in a draped pink Versace dress and a matching statement
fascinator.
The tennis star reportedly had to pull out
of the Italian Open in Rome in order to attend the ceremony, although she'll be back on the
court soon enough: she is scheduled to play in the French Open, beginning on May 27th. Doria Ragland Markle's father Thomas was unable to attend
the wedding due to health issues, but her mother, Doria Ragland, was present and definitely
stole the show. Ragland, a yoga instructor and social worker
in Los Angeles, wore a custom light green dress and coat designed by the creative directors
of Oscar de la Renta. She wore shoes from Aquazzura and a hat by
Stephen Jones.
Meghan Markle Of course, the absolute best dressed at the
royal wedding was the bride herself. People have been speculating about Markle's
dress since the engagement was announced, and she did not disappoint, picking an ivory
Givenchy stunner. Markle looked timeless and elegant, accessorizing
her dress with a 16 and a half foot veil and letting the train trail behind her as she
made her slow and regal walk down the aisle. Markle also wore Queen Mary's diamond tiara,
loaned to her by Queen Elizabeth the second.
Markle's dress was fairly understated against
the regal trappings of the wedding, and she was praised for going with a more simplistic
fashion choice. Vanessa Friedman wrote in The New York Times, "It was not a Cinderella choice, not one that
spoke of fantasy or old-fashioned fairy tales, but one that placed the woman proudly front
and center." Thanks for watching! Click The List icon to subscribe to our YouTube
