Meghan Markle’s Fashion Blunders and Wedding Dress Drama: A Royal Fashion Fiasco
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry embarked on a memorable tour to Australia, Fiji, Tonga, and New Zealand in 2018.
During their visit to Rotteria, New Zealand, the couple engaged in a royal walkabout.
Meghan, dressed in a striking Givenchy bespoke navy pleated skirt, unknowingly revealed more than intended.
She paired the skirt with a navy crew neck blouse from the same designer label and complemented the ensemble with navy suede Manolo Blanique BB pumps.
This, however, was not the first time Meghan made a fashion mistake during a royal tour.
On a previous occasion, she was spotted with the return label still attached to her dress upon arriving in Tonga with Prince Harry.
These minor mishaps have raised eyebrows among fashion enthusiasts and critics alike.
Recently, the tailor who found himself caught in the middle of the bridesmaids' dress debacle at Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's wedding broke his silence.
Speaking to the Daily Mail, he expressed no surprise at the tears shed during the ordeal.
The tailor, along with three staff members, worked tirelessly at Kensington Palace and Winter Castle just four days before the wedding.
They discovered that none of the six bridesmaids' dresses, made by another designer, fit properly.
Reflecting on the incident, the tailor remarked, “I've no idea what measurements Givenchy had received, but with our experience and knowledge, we could see straight away that all six dresses had to be fixed, as they weren't going to fit.”
He continued, “It should be the fact that the bridesmaids looked fabulous.
We had to work tooth and nail for four days, four of us working until 4 am three nights in a row to make them fit.
We left Winter Castle at 10 pm the night before the wedding.”
Despite the meticulous efforts to rectify the situation, no complaints were made about the bridesmaids' dresses on the actual wedding day.
This vindicated Catherine, the Duchess of Cambridge, who had raised concerns about the fitting.
The tailor's account shed light on the immense pressure and hard work involved in ensuring the success of such a high-profile event.
However, not everyone was sympathetic towards Meghan.
Some individuals, including Katy Perry, criticized her ill-fitting wedding dress.
The scrutiny surrounding Meghan's fashion choices seemed relentless.
A story published in the Daily Star, known for its critical stance towards the Sussexes, highlighted Meghan's alleged disdain for her sister-in-law, Catherine.
The article quoted Camilla Tominey from the Telegraph, who suggested that Meghan resented Catherine's privileged access to fashion designers.
The article also emphasized the hierarchical structure within the royal family, which Meghan seemed to overlook.
While Catherine will eventually become Queen Consort, Meghan will remain the Duchess of Sussex.
The distinction in their roles and responsibilities should not be disregarded.
Meghan's lack of understanding regarding the hierarchy and Catherine's experience as a royal further fueled the controversy.
Furthermore, the article revealed that Meghan and Catherine both admired designer Erdem Moraliglou.
However, Catherine, being higher in the pecking order of royal wives, received priority access to the designer's creations.
Meghan's assumption that she could have whatever she desired due to her skin tone was met with criticism.
It became apparent that fashion designers would prioritize dressing the future Queen Consort over the wife of the fifth in line to the throne.
Meghan Markle's fashion blunders and the wedding dress drama have stirred discussions about her choices and perceptions within the royal family.
While her style may have faced scrutiny, it is essential to remember that behind the scenes, countless individuals worked tirelessly to ensure the success of these significant events.
