I like her black and white dress and her white evening dress. The evening dress is one of the few formal things she's worn that I think suits her. The black and white is exactly the sort of print I thought she'd choose and it looks nice.

She was having lunch in the white dress apparently

Ah. Well it fits her nicely at least!

I like the black and white foliage/zebra print dress very much. I’d have tweaked it though - shortened the shoulder straps an inch and also made the front slit shorter. I don’t mind the front cut-out, it’s a fairly small one, just a little design feature.

The strapless white dress she wore for a lunch with the Nigerian Minister of Defence I cannot get on board with, however. I don't think it’s remotely suited for that kind of function, even if it does suit her (which it does).

The dress looks brown and gold on Sky, I really like it.

Yes, it’s quite lovely! A picture here though showing why I think the shoulder straps could have been shortened - it’s sitting very ow on her chest.

Ooh. It still looks black and white to
me. Is this one of the “what colour is it?” dresses?

She looks very thin in that picture

God, i think she looks utterly amazing. All arms and legs. So attractive.

Based on these pics I think the fit was terrible https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13407083/Meghan-Prince-Harry-dine-Nigeria-defence-minister-royal-tour.html

I find it so frustrating that she always gets it nearly right.

Maybe it had just rucked up at that point? It must be hard to keep everything perfect whilst you are moving.

I've shortened many a shoulder strap, and don't get me started on pinning and hemming clothes 😂

mathanxiety · 11/05/2024 17:25

I think the dresses fit really well and she looked fabulous.

Eaumyword · 11/05/2024 18:00

I like the white dress and her hair and makeup look great.
Thinking the other dress looks black and beige in a tropical print, rather than black and white? Personally feel it is too low, showing way too much chest area and that is a bit much with legs out too. Never like her hair scraped back, too severe.

Choux · 11/05/2024 18:11

Someone mentioned her style in Suits and by coincidence I watched an episode last night on BBC1. It might have been episode 1 as it covered how Mike got his job at the law firm. She had boobs and curves in that episode. She looks so different in that black and white dress. Either the boobs were chicken fillets and a push up bra or she has been on a major diet.

Here’s another rocking the white suit look - the Duchess of Gloucester opening the Danish Fair in London today.She had a sunray-pleated white skirt with this ensemble, and looks stunning. The flowers with the outfit are perfect.

I'm yet to see anything I like on Meghan for this trip. I think she should have reworn the Pom-pom dress (although I think I was the only one who liked that last time!)

eggplant16 · 11/05/2024 19:24

She is very slim for sure. Maybe I'm a fool but they genuinely look like they are enjoying themselves.

Just came on to say the same thing. She looked great.

Choux · 11/05/2024 20:04

And she's there to watch it!

eggandonion · 11/05/2024 20:10

I think the Gloucesters have been very reliable supports recently.
If I was a designer lending clothes to royalty I would get one of my staff to adjust straps and hems and so on.

I let a loud ‘It’s CPV!!!!’ to the Cliffs household.

Mr Cliffs was confused.

Ha! Me too 🤣 (luckily Mr S knows who she is too - we know people who were at her wedding!)
