Recent runways prove that the royal-inspired fashion of "The Crown" and "Bridgerton" have a place in current trends.

From the real-life royal influences of&nbsp;the British monarchy to the&nbsp;respelendent world of&nbsp;Bridgerton,&nbsp;high-society fashion sets the bar high when it comes to dressing the part. Modern designers have also delved into the styles of the upper echelons, updating the traditional elements for today&#39;s wardrobes. As shows like Shonda Rhimes&#39; period drama and&nbsp;The Crown&nbsp;bring royal fashion back into the spotlight, L&#39;OFFICIEL&nbsp;finds seven royal&nbsp;trends that also appear on recent runways.

In the Elizabethan era, pure white clothes were a sign of royalty,&nbsp;because the high-maintence garments came at a great expense and only those who could afford to keep their clothes clean&ndash;meaning that they didn&#39;t have to work&ndash;would own them. Still prevalent in luxury fashion, crisp white dresses connote a sense of tidiness and simplicity.
