These are all the royal ladies who look fabulous in trousers - from Duchesses Kate and Meghan to Queen Letizia

The Duchess of Sussex kept things low-key and chic during a visit to Cardiff, Wales, by wearing trousers for a second time on an official royal visit. The former Suits actress paid tribute to the country by wearing the Welsh brand, Hiut Denim. The brand was set up after a denim factory closed down 35 years ago, leaving 400 people out of work, as they decided to "bring manufacturing back home. To use all that skill on our doorstep. And to breathe new life into our town".

After getting some serious outfit-envy, we have taken a look over the years at other royals who have made a fashion statement with trousers, from the Duchess of Cambridge's timeless take on the wardrobe staple to Queen Rania of Jordan's fashion-forward dressing. High waisted, cropped and vibrant colours all feature in the gallery - which are your favourite? 

Meghan looked stunning in these wide legged trousers on her second official engagement with Prince Harry in Brixton in 2018. The former Suits actress - who dressed in a mix of Canadian and British labels - was stylish in a pair of £450 wool wide-leg trousers from Burberry, which were teamed with a grey coat by Smythe, and a sweater from Autograph by Marks & Spencer. 

Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge pulled off a nautical look in June 2017 during a visit to the 1851 Trust roadshow at the Docklands Sailing and Watersports Centre in London, of which she is Patron of. Her classic outfit featured a pair of navy cropped J Crew trousers, which she teamed with a white top and tailored blazer from Zara. A pair of tweed loafers completed her look.

She also looked stunning as she arrived at the RAF base in Cyprus to honour military personnel serving overseas during Christmas, in December 2018. The mother-of-three wore an olive green blazer by Smythe with wide lapels and statement button details, a pair of classic trousers from Jigsaw and a simple white T-shirt.

Queen Rania looked smart as she stepped out of her car in New York to make her way to the We The Future event in New York back in 2017.

Letizia styled a pair of high waisted white trousers with the same red stilettos, this time replacing her patterned blouse for a red short sleeved top.
