Meghan Markle left royal fans feeling unimpressed with one of her outfits during her and Prince Harry’s quasi-royal tour in Colombia. On the first day of their visit, the couple participated in various activities, including a folkloric presentation at the Delia Zapata National Art Centre in Bogotá.
Meghan showcased a chic new cut-out dress by Colombian designer Johanna Ortiz (£1,669), which featured a striking deep slit and was paired with Jimmy Choo’s Etana mules in tan (£675). To complete her look, she accessorized with her signature jewelry, including Cartier’s Juste un Clou necklace (£15,500), a gold Tank Française watch (£28,200), and a yellow gold Love bracelet (£7,050).
She also wore Lanvin’s gold Arpege Sleeper earrings and a vintage High Tea yellow gold coral bead flower ring.
However, royal fans did not like the dress’s slit in the middle and some of them deemed it inappropriate for such a visit.
One fan wrote on X: “She simply doesn’t know how to read a room about clothing styles and what’s appropriate. That slit is too high especially how she crosses her legs. At least it’s by a designer of Columbia’s heritage.”
Another one agreed: “Another entirely inappropriate outfit, far too much flesh showing.”
A third one added: “Cute dress, not for this occasion.”
A fourth one suggested: “The slit should be sewn a bit more.”
A fifth one commented: “Meghan needs to cover up more when visiting governments.”
A sixth one opined: “It’s a lovely colour and fabric but not quite the thing for a ‘royal visit’ or whatever they’re calling it.”
