Princess Kate and Meghan Markle did not have to look far when they chose which designers to wear to Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank’s royal wedding.

Both the Duchess of Cambridge and the Duchess of Sussex wore the same designers Friday who designed their wedding gowns.

Princess Kate, 36, dazzled at Eugenie's wedding at St. George’s Chapel in a dark pink Alexander McQueen dress. She accessorized the dress with a hat by Philip Treacy, a favorite milliner of the royal family.
