Princess Charlene Plays With Proportions in an Oversized '80s-Inspired Suit

Like Meghan Markle, Princess Charlene of Monaco favors sleek and sophisticated styles in neutral tones, so it's no surprise she stepped out in a greige blazer and matching trousers for a recent appearance with Prince Albert. The unexpected part? The Monégasque royal wore an oversized menswear-style jacket and extra-wide pants instead of her usual slim silhouette.

While Charlene's new suit is similar in color to the Alexander McQueen jacket and skinny pants she wore to meet Duchess Sophie and Prince Edward on October 13, her cashmere-blend Max Mara blazer and loose trousers gave off an entirely different vibe. The outfit fits right in with the '80s-inspired looks at the spring/summer 2026 shows this fall, where baggy blazers, strong shoulders and other power looks ruled the runways.
