Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are set to make their first public appearance together since their ill-fated New York paparazzi car chase at September’s Invictus Games, according to The Telegraph.
The couple will be seen side by side during the closing ceremony.
However, the focus is now on Meghan’s wardrobe for the event.
Last year, she spent over £500,000 on her outfits, which received mixed reviews.
Many question whether the money could have been better used to support veterans.
This year, Meghan had her eye on a red-hot Magda Butrym crochet gown, inspired by Lily Allen.
Unfortunately, her order was cancelled by the brand due to her recent scandals.
If she manages to get her hands on the dress, it is expected that she will face criticism for trying to draw attention with a gaudy outfit that may not be suitable for the occasion.
Critics argue that Meghan often fails to dress in styles that complement her shape or disguise any flaws.
Instead, she opts for expensive couture pieces without considering their suitability.
Some suggest that she should have followed the advice of stylists and opted for a more casual look, such as an Invictus t-shirt and jeans for most of the time.
For formal events, she could have reused outfits with perhaps one new addition.
However, Meghan’s fashion sense seems to differ from other women as she always strives to stand out from the crowd.
Recently, a royal fashion expert commented on Meghan’s habit of wearing coats in warm weather.
Miranda Holder, the expert, found it odd and suggested that it could be a style choice.
She noted that Meghan often appears overdressed, both literally and figuratively.
While Meghan did need clothing for her trips, she failed to listen to stylists and ended up wearing dresses that didn’t suit her, only to complain about not being treated well.
In contrast, other members of the royal family, such as Catherine, Camilla, and Sophie, have extensive wardrobes with dedicated staff to coordinate their outfits and accessories for any occasion.
Meghan’s choice to wear a winter coat and scarf in 80-degree weather has raised concerns and led to speculation about her state of mind.
It begs the question of who would want to be seen with her.
Even her bodyguard was seen walking ahead of her, emphasizing the disconnection between Meghan and those around her.
While it is evident that Meghan needed clothing, her focus on price rather than fit became a point of contention, leading Prince Charles to intervene.
It seems that Meghan’s fashion choices have caused some friction within the royal family, especially as Harry navigates the world of personal expenses for the first time.
Although Max Mara may not be as prestigious as Dior, it is still an expensive brand for most people.
As the Invictus Games approach, all eyes will be on Meghan and her fashion choices.
Whether she manages to find a suitable outfit that doesn’t overshadow the event remains to be seen.
