Meghan Markle’s footwear style is a lesson in quiet luxury. Even before her time as a member of the British royal family, Markle has had an affinity for Aquazzura’s delicate stilettos and Gianvito Rossi pumps. Now the former actress owns a collection of Manolo Blahnik and Jimmy Choo pumps and designer boots by Tamara Mellon and Stuart Weitzman.

Over the years, she has cultivated a shoe repertoire that balances timeless refinement with modern ease. Whether she’s attending a red carpet event in barely there sandals or going out with husband Prince Harry in Sarah Flint flats, Markle’s shoe style choices make a statement.

Check out some of her standout shoe moments and how her footwear style has evolved over the years.
