Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's royal wedding is finally here. There were months of speculation and rumors around the wedding, but nothing was more anticipated than the design of Markle's dress.
Prior to the big day, people debated whether Markle would opt for a big or small-name designer. Many also speculated whether she'd go with a more traditional or experimental design.
Inevitably, some wondered what Markle's dress would look like in comparison to the one worn by her now sister-in-law Kate Middleton. Markle has been known to swipe a few pages from Middleton's style playbook, and it looks like she incorporated a few of these touches in her wedding gown as well, while adding her own personal style in the process.
If you need a refresher, here's what Middleton's Alexander McQueen gown looked like during her wedding to Prince William in 2011.
The dress featured a flowing gown that her sister Pippa Middleton helped keep in place as she made her way towards Westminster Abbey. She paired it with a veil over her sparkling tiara.
For her wedding at St. George's Chapel on Saturday, Markle opted for a white Givenchy gown with a flowing train trailing behind her.
The dress featured a wide boatneck neckline with long sleeves that helped provide a more modern yet still elegant silhouette. While Middleton had lace sleeves on her gown, Markle opted for a fuller long-sleeve design.
Both dresses featured lace detailing as part of their designs, as well as a traditional veil. Markle's was notable for its length, which overlayed the train of her gown.
Both dresses also managed to showcase each of their personal styles while looking traditionally stunning as well.
