Meghan Markle fans gush over £14 dupe of her £220 cashmere burgundy jumper – and it’s just as cosy
SHE IS known for her fashion-forward wardrobe, and Meghan Markle’s latest outfit proved no exception.
The Duchess of Sussex beat off the autumnal chill in a chic cosy v-neck sweater for a royal engagement yesterday – and fans have been delighted by the news you can get your hands on her look for less.
Meghan, 38, stepped out with husband Prince Harry, 35, for a gender equality meeting at Windsor castle with The Queen’s Commonwealth Trust and One Young World.
The Duchess wowed in a £369 Hugo Boss red lambskin midi-skirt which had been worn the day before by Queen Letizia of Spain.
She paired it with a £219 burgundy cashmere v-neck sweater from Joseph.
And the royal mum to five-month-old baby Archie finished off her look with a 1960’s inspired up-do and Sarah Flint suede heels.

Amazon Essentials Women’s Lightweight V-Neck Sweater, £14.42, Amazon – buy here
But while Meghan’s stylish outfit might not be within everyone’s budgets – a dupe of her versatile sweater has got people very excited.
You can buy an almost identical version of the jumper from Amazon.
The ‘Amazon Essentials Lightweight V-Neck Sweater’ looks very similar to the Duchess’ pricier counterpart.
But thanks to its cotton-blend fabric, it’s just as cosy – and at $18, or approximately £14, it’s far more affordable.
However, if burgundy doesn’t float your boat, it’s also available in a host of other shades – including ivory, dark green and mustard.
The jumper, which features an elegant ribbed collar and cuffs, has received hundreds of five-star reviews.
One happy shopper wrote: “I love these new Amazon Essentials sweaters.
“I bought five (two solid and three stripes) so I have one to wear to work each day.
“They are light so I don’t get too hot but warm enough when the AC is on full blast at work.”
Another commented: “I like this sweater so much that I went and bought a bunch more of it. It’s your go-to basic long sleeve lightweight v-neck.
“Easy to wear under a jacket. Great over jeans.”
And a third shared: “This fits me perfectly, as I like my tops a little loose to hide the lumps and bumps.”
