Meryl Streep cut a chic figure in a pink suit as she walked the star-studded red carpet at the Peacock Theatre for the 76th Primetime Emmy Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday.

The 75-year-old actress looked characteristically chic, sporting a double-breasted blazer which she paired with matching wide-leg trousers.

Underneath the jacket, the Mamma Mia star opted for a coordinating bow blouse, finishing the ensemble with a pair of silver heels.

The look may have seemed somewhat familiar to style watchers, as it’s not unlike ensembles previously worn by the 42-year-old Princess of Wales.

In June 2022, the then Duchess of Cambridge looked chic in a £1,420 baby pink Alexander McQueen blazer as she hosted a panel discussion on the importance of early childhood development and its links to mental health with senior government ministers.

The royals, who held the meeting at the Royal Institution in London, met then Health Secretary Sajid Javid and then Family Minister Will Quince, as well as representatives from the early years sector and officials from the Department for Education and the Department of Health and Social Care.

She paired the matching pink blazer and pants with a fitted white top and completed the look with a dazzling set of jewelry.

Kate opted for her £3,750 pair of Mappin & Webb ‘Empress’ diamond carriage earrings and matching £2,000 white gold and diamond ‘Empress Mini’ pendant necklace.

Although her suit was tighter than the one Meryl Streep wore to the Emmys, the color was similar.

And there was another notable item the actress wore that bore a striking similarity to one that royalty had worn in the past.

The royal (pictured in Boston in 2022) has also been spotted wearing blouses with bows at the neck on several occasions.

This was the pink blouse with a pussy bow that Meryl wore under her blazer.

The bun has become something of a signature look for the Princess of Wales, who has sported the classic style on numerous occasions.

By pairing this type of top with matching trousers or a suit, the royals have given the impression of professionalism with a touch of charm during multiple royal functions.

But she has also chosen the neckline for glamorous events and celebrations, including a coral dress with a bow at the neck for her nephew Archie’s christening in 2019.

The style could be an unintentional homage to Princess Diana, who wore a white bow-neck blouse with a blue suit when she announced her engagement to Charles in 1981.

It has been suggested that Kate is taking a leaf out of her book of late mother-in-law Diana, Princess of Wales, who opted for a blue suit with a white bow blouse for the official announcement of her engagement to Charles in 1981.

Last year, stylist Susie Hasler, who runs Style by Susie, told MailOnline that the popular royal look provides the opportunity to achieve “very different styles” while also being flattering on “all shapes”.

She added: ‘Kate is traditional and feminine with the clothes she wears, that’s why she has her hair up in a bun.

‘Because of her place in the royal family, she always opts for much more formal and conservative clothing.’

In 2022, the mother of three looked sophisticated and poised in a pink bow-neck blouse and burgundy Roland Mouret suit on the first full day of her US tour with Prince William.

Last year, she wore a similar pale blue silk blouse by Winser London paired with a long pale blue coat for a softer impression to visit the charity PIPS (Public Initiative for the Prevention of Suicide and Self-Harm) in Belfast, which provides support to people who are considering, or have at some point considered, ending their own lives.

In 2017, the Princess wore a floral dress with a bow neckline to visit the Diana, Princess of Wales memorial garden in Kensington Gardens.

The princess has been seen wearing a houndstooth dress from Zara at a couple of engagements.

She paired the look with a striking pair of grey patent leather high heels.

She then kept up that versatile look as the visit took a more playful turn when she and Prince William participated in a cocktail-making race at an open-air market in the city.

The princess has even rocked high street pussy-bow looks, recycling a £16 black and white houndstooth dress from Zara paired with striking grey patent leather high heels on a visit to University College London in 2021.

Kate had worn the dress, which was priced at just under £89.99, on a trip to Bradford earlier that year and it had already sold out online by the time she made her appearance.

She has an extensive collection of dresses with bows at the neck, and wore an elegant pale pink floral dress to mark World Mental Health Day with Prince William and Prince Harry in 2016.

She sported a festive interpretation of the style when she appeared in Mary Berry’s A Berry Royal Christmas with her husband in 2019, choosing a printed red dress for the show.
