Meghan Markle is a famous fan of trend diplomacy–that's, sporting manufacturers or motifs that align together with her agenda. However is her newest look a nod to the royal household, or just a coincidence?
On Could 10, Markle joined Prince Harry in Nigeria, the place the 2 are celebrating the tenth anniversary of the Invictus Video games, the sporting event for wounded veterans which Harry based in 2014. The journey adopted on the heels of Harry's solo trip to England, the place he hosted one other anniversary occasion.
That affair was attended by numerous the late Princess Diana's family—together with her brother, Charles Spencer—after King Charles and Prince William each declined Harry's invitation, citing scheduling conflicts. In keeping with the BBC, the King's “full programme” included a backyard social gathering which was attended by a number of working royals.

A pair days later, for the event in Nigeria, the duke and duchess tore into their summer time wardrobes: Meghan wore dusty rose floor-length costume by Heidi Merrick, which she paired with a gold choker necklace and matching gold earrings. On her wrist she wore her Cartier Tank watch, in addition to her Cartier Love bracelet. Prince Harry matched the vibe to a tee in linen separates, which he paired with camel-colored desert boots.
Notably, the title of Markle's costume is the “Windsor," which is also the surname of the royal family. According to the Instagram account What Meghan Wore, the style is from 2018, meaning it may have been sitting in Markle's closet for several years. Or maybe she sought it out secondhand, knowing that fans would quickly identify the “Windsor dress” and see it as a gesture of goodwill following Harry's snub in England. The reality is, we could by no means know!
