In the '80s, the world experienced the Diana effect.

But it took several decades for a new royal to take the place of the People's Princess — and then along came two. Much like Diana, Kate and Meghan's sartorial choices are the subject of intense interest, which is buoyed by the lack of alternative information the public has to feed on. The royals' outfits drive conversations, clicks, and column inches, but what is the cold, hard, numerical footprint? Are the royals really as influential as their Vogue covers would have us think? The answer is yes and, sometimes, no.

A third of the U.S. population believe the UK to be a "world leader in fashion" thanks to the Duchesses' efforts, consultancy firm Brand Finance reports. Before Meghan became an official member of the royal family, she was expected to drive £150 million into the British fashion economy. Why? Simply because people couldn't get enough of copying her look.

"A majority of her outfits immediately trigger staggering spikes in online demand," notes Morgane LeCaer, fashion insights reporter at global fashion search platform Lyst. "It is, of course, reminiscent of the effect that some of Kate Middleton’s outfits have, and, while the two Duchesses have a different sort of impact on online shopping behaviours, they both offer powerful brand moments to the labels that they choose to wear." Lyst reports an endorsement from Meghan can lead to a 216% bump in search traffic, while her sister-in-law is responsible for a 119% lift.

"The Duchess [of Cambridge] still shops the high street and continues to move merchandise off the shelves."

When Meghan wore Canadian brand Mackage for a Northern Ireland trip, Business of Fashion reports that it resulted in media impressions worth $20 million. "We've never seen an impact like this," co-founder Elisa Dahan told the site. Royal support can also help

LONDON: With inspiration ranging from the yachts of the super rich to tropical beach colours, designers at London Fashion Week are seeking to ride out the tough economic times with creations that stand out and sparkle.

An array of colours and bold prints has prevailed on the catwalk since London Fashion Week began on Friday. Fashion theory may state that when times get tough hemlines drop but several names showcasing their designs for spring/summer 2012 have kept skirts short and dresses tightly fitted.

Designer Julien Macdonald said he was taking his clients on a journey from the yachts of Saint Tropez and Monte Carlo to China and Japan, with a collection filled with Asian print designs and embellished evening and cocktail dresses.

With their hair tightly gelled back, models wore white tuxedo jackets, metallic belts and waistcoat dresses, accessorised with Porsche-designed sunglasses and military caps.

"The collection is exclusive, it's very expensive. Only the richest people in the world can afford to buy it," he said.

Macdonald, known for luxury designs which usually sell for hundreds of dollars, often hosts more than 400 people at his shows but this year picked a smaller, more intimate setting.

"I just invited the best. I said no to 550 very upset people," he said. "The recession affects every designer. People just want special things. If you've spent the money on the clothes, you want to look a billion dollars."

At London Fashion Week, which runs until Sept. 21, dozens of British and international designers are showing their lines, eager to entice cash-strapped buyers with their collections.

At Issa London, tropical colours, flirty dresses and luxurious katfans set the catwalk alight, as Brazilian designer Daniela Helayel brought Rio de Janeiro's Ipanema beach to the British capital. One model ended the show dressed as a samba dancer with an embellished corset and crown of feathers.
