Regardless of whether she steps out with the royal family or makes a low-key outing with Prince Harry in Montecito, the Duchess of Sussex is known for her elegant and enviable style.
But when she's not being papped in public, Meghan can relax in more daring outfit choices – including sleek beachwear. The former Suits actress shared a very rare glimpse inside her designer holiday wardrobe during episode six of the Netflix docuseries Harry & Meghan, looking every inch the beach babe in her black scallop swimsuit designed by Marysia.

Coined the '+ NET SUSTAIN Palm Springs Reversible Scalloped Recycled Seersucker Swimsuit,' the swimwear staple retails at $398 and is crafted by Polish-born and New York-based designer Maria Dobrzanska Reeves. Meghan completed her off-duty attire by shielding her face from the Californian sunshine with a pair of black sunglasses and a sweet straw hat.

Prince Harry's mother Princess Diana pioneered royal swim style, regularly enthralling fans with striking swim sets and bikinis. From monochrome to leopard print, jet black to stripes, tangerine to turquoise, the beloved late royal rocked it all.
The Duchess of Sussex's most significant public moments are illustrated with striking images of her donning optic white ensembles. Meghan and Prince Harry's appearances in the lead-up to the momentous Harry & Meghan Netflix series were no exception. But do you know the symbolism behind Meghan's choice to wear white?
