Meghan Markle was, hands down, one of 2018′s biggest style stars. 

The Duchess of Sussex, who officially became a royal in May when she wed Prince Harry (in a beautiful custom Givenchy gown ), has her royal style down to a science. 

The former “Suits” star has her signature styles and go-tos, like the classic boat neckline and dark colors, but she’s not afraid to break royal convention by wearing crossbody bags or skipping pantyhose .  

And much like her royal sister-in-law, Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, she has the clout to increase a brand’s exposure and even make a garment sell out after just one wear. The phenomenon has aptly been dubbed “The Meghan Markle Effect. ” 

The duchess has worn countless outfits this year, some of which have given us lasting closet envy. From her classic wedding gown to her Australian royal tour looks , take a look back at the royal’s most gorgeous looks of 2018:
