Meghan Markle has long been known to favour exclusive and pricey designers.

And she made her preferences clear once more during her Colombia tour last week – with the total value of her clothing and jewellery coming in at a cool £90,000.

 

The Duchess of Sussex, 43, who lives with Prince Harry and their two children, Prince Archie, five, and Princess Lilibet, three, in their $14million Montecito home, joined her husband for a four-day tour of the South American nation last week.

The Sussexes packed in a busy schedule during their trip, dubbed a DIY royal tour, attending a show by Colombian folk dancers in Bogota, visiting a school, sampling a banquet and giving speeches.

The mother-of-two and her husband were given full security detail by Colombia’s vice president Francia Marquez, who invited the couple after she watched their Netflix show and was ‘moved’ by their story.

Throughout it all, Meghan proved once again she is the princess of style, wearing a number of elegant – and expensive – looks.

Her jewellery alone, which included several of her staples – Princess Diana‘s £17,800 Cartier watch and a £15,011.84 ‘Against Evil Eye’ bracelet from Lorraine Schwartz, added significant value to the price tag of her items.



Meghan gave a sweet nod to the hosting country, wearing multiple pieces by Johanna Ortiz, who is from Colombia and one of her favourite designers.

She also wore items designed by Andres Otalora and Silvia Tcherassi, also from Colombia, while her Hannia Char boater hat was handwoven by Colombian artisans – proving that Meghan is personalising her looks for each tour.

Meghan wore just one high street outfit the entire time – a sleeveless shirt from Mango – instead favouring stylish and often bespoke pieces from her favourite designers.

In total, her clothes and jewellery came to £89,964 – but as several items were gifted, the true value may be far higher.

Significantly, this figure also doesn’t include her £140,000 engagement ring.

By combining old staples and several new items, Meghan made sure she put on a fashion display fit for royalty in her four days in Colombia.

Here, FEMAIL calculates the total value of Meghan’s wardrobe for the whirlwind tour, only taking into account the cost of items once – while some items have been worn before.
