Meghan Markle has been snubbed by a popular British designer who voiced their admiration for Kate Middleton but said they would not want to work with the Duchess of Sussex
Meghan Markle has been brutally snubbed by an A-list designer after they refused to work with her.
Famed British fashion icon Julien Macdonald has openly admitted his preference for the Princess of Wales over Meghan after being quizzed on who he would like to collaborate with. The designer was in attendance at the Fragrance Foundation Awards in London when he opened up about the Royals he dreams of dressing.
Julien – who was once crowned British Fashion Designer Of The Year – didn’t hold back when he gave his take on who he wouldn’t work with either. He slammed Meghan as he admitted she is not on his style list, despite her love of fashion and her huge lifestyle following who draw inspiration from her outfit choices when she hits public events.

Speaking to the Daily Mail, he said: “Kate’s amazing… I’d love to dress her in one of my dresses. I’ve got a great relationship with Camilla, the Queen. She’s incredible.” He was then asked if he would like to see Meghan wearing one of his designs to which he promptly replied: “No, I prefer Kate and Camilla.”

Julien also admitted that Camilla will ask him for style advice when they encounter one another as he added: “She does every now and then. When I see her at different events, I always say, ‘You look really nice, Camilla’, and she’ll say, ‘Do you like it? Oh, I’m glad you approve’.”
The scathing comment comes after celebrity stylist Rochelle White previously pointed out the differences between Kate and Meghan’s individual style. She compared Meghan’s fashion choices to the more traditional styles seen being worn by Kate, as she pointed out that the Princess of Wales opts for a more classic theme to her styling, with fitted dresses and tailored trousers while Meghan takes a more relaxed and personal approach to her fashion looks.

She explained how “Meghan has more of trendy edge when it comes to her style,” and noted that on the other hand “Kate is very classic and chic in her fits and style with traditional pieces thrown in.”
Rochelle went on to describe how “with Meghan, I feel she is very much herself and has elements that really showcase her personality and personal style,” adding that the Duchess clearly likes “off the shoulder tops, shorts, co-ords and racer back tops, she doesn’t hide what she likes and what works for her.”
