Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, made headlines once again for her fashion choices during her visit to the Invictus Games.
While attending various events at the Games alongside her husband, Prince Harry, Meghan opted for a pricey and sporty chic style that left some critics unimpressed.
The Duchess, known for her love of designer pieces, surprised everyone by choosing a $217 Banana Republic shirt dress for her first Invictus event.
This was quite a departure from her usual high-end attire, which often includes expensive accessories like Hermes scarves and Valentino flats.
However, Meghan didn’t disappoint in adding a touch of luxury to her ensemble, as she was seen wearing a diamond pinky ring valued at a staggering $96,000.
Critics argue that Meghan is using the Invictus Games as a platform to boost her commercial value and sell her own clothing line.
However, her unconventional fashion choices seem to have left the audience underwhelmed.
Instead of adhering to the prescribed sportswear, Meghan has been combining items in strange and unconventional ways.
For instance, she paired shorts that were deemed too short with an elegantly designed jacket.
She even swapped her sneakers for high heels, which not only scratched the floor but also caused the cleaners extra work.
During a speech to the soldiers, Meghan wore a short shirt dress and left all the buttons open, showcasing her slim legs.
This fashion choice drew criticism, with renowned designer Valentino remarking that even among models, there are no legs like Meghan’s, and such revealing clothes are unsuitable for formal events.
Adding fuel to the fire, rumors circulated that Meghan did her own hair and makeup for the event.
However, the source who leaked this information was met with skepticism, as it was suggested that Meghan’s makeup had a distinct “Cheeto dust bronzer” look.
Additionally, there was backlash when it was revealed that her goyard tote was from a vintage shop, as some felt she was using the Invictus Games as a fashion runway for expensive luxury items.
Critics argue that Meghan’s attempt to use the Invictus Games for image repair is disrespectful to the veterans.
They believe the focus should solely be on honoring and supporting these incredible individuals who have overcome challenges and hardships.
Meghan’s past actions, including her attacks on the royal family and disrespect towards Queen Elizabeth, have tarnished her reputation on a large scale.
Instead of trying to play the relatable mom, Meghan should focus on using her own time and resources to repair her image.
The Invictus Games should remain a platform to celebrate the achievements of the veterans, rather than a stage for personal agendas.
It seems that many are not buying into Meghan’s attempts to reinvent herself and are calling for genuine respect and understanding from the Duchess.
