From the moment that Meghan Markle stepped out in that Stella McCartney gown for the evening reception of her Royal Wedding, a million brides-to-be swooned.

The former Suits star's pared-back party dress has now been pinned on wedding mood boards from Windsor Castle to Whitby and the high-street swooped in with fast fashion replicas right left and centre.

Eventually, the gown's original designer, Stella McCartney, released the original design on Net-A-Porter (thankfully, there are a few sizes left in stock).

Now, the Duchess of Sussex's best friend and rumoured wedding stylist Jessica Mulroney has replicated her friend's iconic fashion moment.

Bridal stylist Mulroney appears to have dressed one of her gorgeous clients in a very similar style to the second Royal Wedding dress.

After photographs of the happy couple on a cobbled street in Brooklyn were posted on Instagram, users noticed how much the blonde bride's dress resembled Markle's evening gown.

'This is my fav dress. Meghan’s 2nd wedding dress', one wrote, whilst another added: 'Looks like Meghan’s evening dress.'

A close-up image shows that the ivory, slinky, high-necked and exposed-back dress, though similar, is not identical to 37-year-old Markle's, since hers features a slightly wider collar.

The unnamed bride also mirrored Meghan's low bun and dangling earrings, though made it her own with a bold bouquet and sultry make-up.

Imitation is always the sincerest form of flattery and, considering Markle's mate Mulroney was on the job, we're sure new mother Markle doesn't mind one bit.
