Meghan, Duchess of Sussex spotted out and about, part 3

[skullbabe]

Part 3 of a nice, unproblematic thread to discuss some of the fab outfits from the Duchess of Sussex, and some of the many great causes she (and Harry) and Archewell supports. h/t @queentim for the original threads.

I really liked this outfit and the way the skirt flowed as she walked - really good choice and quite pared back compared to some other people on the red carpet.

What would you suggest as an alternative to shorts and a Tshirt in temps above 30°C and humidity you could cut with a knife?

My goodness. You are comparing Hollywood cinema to Jamaica cinema

Not sure how to respond to be honest. And what the point is.

It's a Jamaican venue, in Jamaica, where a movie about one of Jamaica's heroes was aired. The venue was 100% suitable for the movie and its subject.

Are you trying to imply that there's something second rate about the venue?

Are you referring to Jamaica or the small town where the poster lives?

I'm not saying it is second rate but I am saying that it is not Grauman's and you would therefore dress in a more suitable way. Maybe you need to read the whole thread.

Ah, so a "Hollywood or London" red carpet and venue and more deserving of certain dress than a "Jamaican or Caribbean" red carpet and venue

There's something I'm not comfortable with here

Thank you. That's what was getting to but couldn't quite put my finger on it

Fortunately they do not need their public/SM profile, as they are multi-millionaires by inheritance. Their public profile is by choice.

It wasn't a ball gown. That ensemble wasn't anything like an Oscars gown.

Hats off to you for bringing such passion to your attempt at a hatchet job - but your agenda here is very obvious, and your comments are silly.

It's not about "deserving" - don't try to bring things up that aren't there. It's about suitability.

Nope. I think when Meghan showed she was at her breaking point in S. Africa, but luckily Harry took her away from there

Ditto

And therefore not a typical Hollywood premiere outfit.

It wasn't flashy, it wasn't blingy, it was monochrome and tasteful, her hair and makeup were not designed to overshadow anyone else - she was there to pay respect to a Jamaican icon whose music was known and loved throughout the world, not to turn it into The Meghan and Harry Show, and she succeeded.

Except, as been explained numerous times, what attendees wore to celebrate the premiere of a national and global musical icon, was quite suitable.

You are the one who keeps trying to pigeon hole your ideas going on now 5 pages of a thread.

So don't blame posters for responding to your own words.

Totally agree. I thought it was just me who felt uncomfortable with some of the comments.
Some posters need to be really careful about the way they are coming across.

No - a large chunk of that was trying to explain the point to @Roussette .
What YOU think is suitable, others don't - it's really that simple.

Yes thank you. Seems it was caught by a couple other posters as well

Can you elaborate on that @Lampzade as I was the one who posted photos of the venues?

I am responding to your comment, which was in response to the comment on the small town/ pajamas.

Americans and Jamaicans alike live in areas where there are hot summer temperatures and high humidity. Apart from northern Maine, the coastal northwest, and the desert southwest, high humidity is the order of the day in the US in summer.

What YOU think is unsuitable, others don't. What aren't you understanding here?

Furthermore, you've gone on now about a certain standard for certain countries.

You introduced it, so people are free to comment on your comments.

Gee whizz that's exactly what I said. To correct you though I didn't say it was for different countries but different venues. I would say the same thing if it was some poky little cinema in Wigan. Not the place for extravagant clothing LA premiere style.

Happens all the time. Those undertones are there regularly. Those doing the baiting know what they are doing and don't care. Best ignored most of the time. Watching the frenzy as they try to outdo each other can be amusing in a pathetic sense at times. Then you get the name changes and the cycle starts again.
