Meghan Markle’s fashion style during her visit to Nigeria attracted much attention. Unlike her sister-in-law, Princess Kate, who prefers to be discreet when traveling abroad, the Duchess of Sussex chose cool, revealing outfits.
On May 10, Meghan Markle and Prince William began their trip to Nigeria. On their first day in the African country, the Duchess of Sussex attracted attention with a sleeveless peach maxi dress by Los Angeles (USA) California designer Heidi Merrick, priced at $572. Photo: Getty Images.
In addition to the name “Windsor”, the choice of a backless design to appear at school caused the former actress born in 1981 to receive a lot of criticism. However, considering the weather, the dress is suitable to withstand the average temperature of 35 degrees Celsius. Photo: AP/Getty Images.
When attending an outdoor volleyball match at Officers Mess on the outskirts of the Nigerian capital (Abuja) on May 11, Meghan upped the ante by wearing a black and white Joanna Ortiz Tropicana Nights (Columbia) strapless dress, priced at $2,848. Photo: Getty Images.
While Kate Middleton tends to choose modest dresses when traveling abroad or appearing in public, Meghan is comfortable showing a little more skin. This is the most obvious difference in the fashion style of King Charles’s two daughters-in-law. Photo: Daily Mail/X.
Meghan’s fashion highlight in Nigeria was a red halter dress at the Women in Leadership event she co-hosted with Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Director General of the World Trade Organization, in Abuja on May 11. The design, created by local expert Oríré, cost $332. It was the most vibrant dress in the Duchess of Sussex’s mostly neutral wardrobe. Photo: Getty Images.
“It’s been 24 hours since we arrived, and I quickly got the memo that I need to wear more color to match all of you and your incredible fashion sense,” Meghan shared at the chat. Photo: Reuters/X.

Although she prefers to dress revealingly, Meghan knows how to be modest, not too revealing, focusing mainly on her shoulders, collarbones and arms. That way, the mother of two can show off her charm, cover up her not-so-slim waist, while ensuring elegance and appropriateness to her status. Photo: Daily Mail.
On her last day in Nigeria (May 12), Meghan wore a Johanna Ortiz Summer Counts halter dress ($1,995), Burberry sandals, and Heidi Merrick sunglasses ($215) to attend the Nigeria Unconquered charity polo match at the Lagos Polo Club with her husband. Photo: X.
The elegant patterns and colors, along with just enough cut-out details, give Meghan a feminine, elegant look. The dress once again affirms Meghan’s love for neutral colors. Photo: Reuters/Getty Images.
