What do Meghan Markle and Sienna Miller have in common? Well, apart from lucrative acting careers, that is. We’re specifically thinking of a sartorial symmetry between the two celebs: a love for blue-and-white striped shirts. Only this week, Miller was spotted in head-to-toe pinstripes at Wimbledon, while it was back in 2018 that the Duchess of Sussex watched a match in a very chic get-up of a striped shirt and white trousers.Â
Incidentally, we’ve also spotted this classic style on the feeds of Instagram’s best dressed this summer, with the likes of Anne Laure Mais and Ellie Delphine of Slip Into Style embracing the striped shirt’s tailored charm. I myself recently found a second-hand Ralph Lauren iteration in a local charity shop—in the men’s section no less—and have enjoyed embracing its oversized appeal with jeans and chunky sandals. There’s definitely something rather ‘90s Sloane Ranger about the pinstripe shirt (which definitely isn’t a bad thing). However, we’ve loved seeing how influencers have mixed up the look with everything from leather trousers and slip skirts to colour-pop heels.
