The Duke and Duchess of Sussex met New Zealand’s Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern for a formal reception at the Auckland War Memorial Museum today (October 30).

Meghan took a leaf out of Kate Middleton’s book as she recycled her navy blue Antonio Berardi dress, which she had previously worn back in May 2017 for the Audi Polo Challenge.

The polo event was the couple’s first public appearance after announcing they were in a relationship six months beforehand.

On this occasion Meghan paired the asymmetrical hemline dress with her favourite heels from Aquazzura and her bespoke Dior clutch.

I love the fun polka clutch she wore the first time around, but this styling suited the occasion.

Following the Wheelchair Basketball Finals in Sydney, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry attended the closing ceremony of the Invictus Games on Saturday (October 27).

The Duchess took to the stage wearing an Antonio Berardi tuxedo dress.

Her sleeveless olive green dress was smart, but I was slightly irked by the modifications made to the top half which rendered the look a bit sloppy.

Antonio Berardi’s craftsmanship is second to none, I know this first hand. And I appreciate that the Duchess’ body is changing all the time, but surely they have a seamstress on hand to prevent such things.

To make matters worse, she wore Aquazzura cream ankle strap pumps which were so wrong for the look, leaving her to look like she was wearing ankle monitors.

Not my favourite by a long shot.
