What we love most about Meghan’s look is how perfectly transitional her choice of a classic trench-style dress is. In warmer weather, a trench dress is an easy piece to throw on with heels and look instantly polished (just like Meghan!) while in colder months it makes for a fantastic layering piece – try wearing it open over a sweater and jeans with knee-high boots. Regardless of how you style it, a trench dress is a wardrobe staple, which is why we’ve gone ahead and rounded up 9 of our favorite dresses that will take you from now through fall and beyond in royal style.
