Chloe’s CEO Mocks Meghan’s Fashion Choices, Designers Pay to Avoid Association
Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, has been facing criticism for her fashion choices once again.
This time, it was her off-the-shoulder cream-colored ensemble that she wore for a World Health Day event in New York City that sparked controversy.
Twitter erupted with comments from disappointed royal fans who felt that Meghan could have put more thought into her outfit before stepping out.
One user remarked, “Watching Meghan dressed like a half-wrapped parcel, playing the victim and preaching to the world turns my stomach.”
Another criticized her by saying, “She thinks that just because an outfit is expensive, it automatically looks great.
It's actually amazing how bad Meghan looks every time.
She's proved that you can wear couture and still look cheap.”
The scrutiny continued when Meghan and Prince Harry were spotted on an exclusive Caribbean island.
Meghan opted for a timeless Panama hat and an ivory crochet maxi dress from Chloe, which retails at £5,400.
However, Chloe's description of the dress, sold in 2022, raised eyebrows.
They referred to it as “the long flared tank dress by Chloe, designed by aware designer Dujour-Gabriella Hurst.”
The dress was part of their spring-summer 2022 collection and had already sold out, with a price tag of $6,650.
It seemed that Meghan had purchased the dress a year ago, anticipating a paparazzi moment on a luxurious island resort.
However, critics argued that the dress did not fit her properly and looked like something she would wear while hoping for an invitation to the Hamptons that never came.
They believed that Meghan was trying too hard to portray a different kind of wealth but missing the mark.
One of the notable features of the dress was its lack of lining, which exposed a significant amount of skin.
Thankfully for Meghan, the paparazzi shot was not too close.
Critics likened the dress to something one would see under a microscope and commented on Meghan's recent affinity for cut-out dresses.
They described her style as a combination of a s**y young mother and a quest for quiet luxury, suggesting that she was not achieving the desired effect.
Adding fuel to the fire, Chloe's CEO took to social media and made a playful remark about designers needing to pay Meghan not to wear their clothes.
This comment highlighted Meghan's perceived ability to make expensive outfits look like rejects from flea markets.
It also highlighted the strained relationship between Meghan and major French and Italian brands.
Sources from Givenchy, Chanel, and Versace denied any association with the Duchess, stating that while she may purchase their clothes like anyone else, no contracts had been signed.
This move by fashion heads further emphasized Meghan's predicament as she attempted to navigate the fashion industry without significant support.
Whenever Meghan wears an outfit from a particular brand, rumors circulate about potential ambassadorships or deals.
For instance, Dior had to quickly announce a new brand ambassador to dispel rumors that Meghan had caused.
