However Kate, the Duchess of Cambridge, failed to make the list at all. The conclusions were released by online fashion platform Lyst at part of its Year In Fashion Report.
It was based on a study of searches made by over 100 million shoppers worldwide.
Using the data Lyst selected what it argued were the 12 most iconic fashion moments of the year.
They included the Duke and Duchess of Sussex stepping down from front line royal duties at the end of March and Princess Beatrice getting married in July.
Meghan and Harry shocked the world in January when they announced their intention to step down as senior members of the Royal Family.
Instead the couple vowed to become “financially independent” and said they would divide their time between North America and the UK.
However a number of the outfits Meghan wore to her final royal engagements in March became fashion sensations.
On March 5 the Duchess wore a striking blue Victoria Beckham dress to the Endeavor Awards at London’s Mansion House.
The event celebrated serving and former members of the armed forces who used sport to recover from injury or adjust to post-military life.

Over the next 48 hours Lyst reports searches for “vintage wedding dress” went up by 297 percent.
