The Duchess of Sussex is due to give birth any day now.

While a royal baby is an obvious cause for celebration, in this case, it also rather tragically means waving goodbye to one of the best royal maternity wardrobes to date.

Of course, Meghan Markle was no sartorial novice prior to her pregnancy. But in the last few months, the former Suits actor has proven her maternity style credentials with aplomb.

From stepping out in a retro mini dress on International Women’s Day to colour-blocking on a recent visit to Birkenhead, the 37-year-old royal keeps things fresh by paying homage to an eclectic mix of trends.

Markle is also renowned for championing female British designers, such as Stella McCartney, Victoria Beckham and of course, Clare Waight Keller for Givenchy, who designed her wedding gown.

In a very short period of time, the mother-to-be has managed to completely dismantle the myth that pregnant women are slaves to slouchy garb – think tracksuit bottoms and stretch-top jeans. No. They can radiate in printed maxi dresses by Carolina Herrera or fix up and look sharp in snazzy tailoring from high street labels.

Click through the gallery above to see Markle’s best pregnancy looks, which comes complete with Oscar de la Renta, Calvin Klein and copious pairs of Manolo Blahniks.
