Meghan Markle is channeling one of Princess Diana’s quintessential fashion moments with her latest outfit.

The Duchess of Sus𝓈ℯ𝓍, 42, sported a chic outfit reminiscent of Princess Diana’s staple look of a blazer and all-white ensemble on her return to Los Angeles after her and Prince Harry’s Nigeria trip on Monday, May 13.

Meghan was pictured at Los Angeles International Airport wearing the Jamilla linen blazer in camel by Loro Piana, paired with a white sweater also by the brand and white jeans, channeling her late mother-in-law’s signature ’90s look.

The Duchess of Sus𝓈ℯ𝓍 also wore a pair of white and tan leather and canvas YSL Chris slippers — nearly identical to the flats worn by Princess Diana in 1994.

Meghan was snapped wearing the same outfit in a photo posted by Ghana-Jamaica Chamber of Commerce president, Derrick Cobbinah, on Instagram during what appeared to be one of her last engagements with Prince Harry during their three-day Nigeria trip, before departing on May 12.

The oversized blazer and monochrome white base layer was a look favored by Princess Diana when it came to her off-duty dressing throughout the 1990s.

Diana was pictured on several occasions sporting the chic style combination while out and about in London during her time off from public engagements.

Meghan has adopted a similar way of dressing when it comes to her own engagements, often opting for sleek, monochrome looks.

Princess Diana is still admired for her blazer and white base layer combo.

During her trip to Nigeria last week, the Duchess of Sus𝓈ℯ𝓍 took a departure from her usual aesthetic, going instead for sweeping dresses and bold colors.

Among the striking ensembles worn during her stay in the West African country was a blush silk Heidi Merrick ‘Windsor’ dress, a red Oríré ‘Dire’ dress and a bright yellow Carolina Herrera column gown.
