People are divided over Meghan Markle’s floral maxi dress – with some likening it to an M&S duvet... (original) (raw)

THE newest member of the royal family, Meghan Markle, turned heads when she accompanied Prince Harry to a society wedding.

The pair were attending the wedding of Princess Diana's niece, Celia McCorquodale on Saturday, four weeks after they tied the knot themselves.

While Prince Harry wore a classic waistcoat and coattails, the Duchess of Sussex opted for a long-sleeved floral maxi dress, complete with fascinator.

The 36-year-old wore the £3,922 long sleeve cocktail dress by Oscar De LA Renta – who styled Meghan’s mum Doria at her wedding.

But people have been quick to question Meghan’s style, commenting on how baggy and ill-fitting the dress seemed – similar to opinion on her Givenchy wedding gown.

One person went as far as to compare her expensive frock to a duvet, but at least an M&S one.

One person posted: “Is Meghan Markle okay?

“Why is she always drowning in her outfits ?”

Some even compared her fascinator to a bath sponge, saying: “That outfit looks like a departure from her usual style, but if she needs to borrow one, I have several of those "hats" hanging out with the shower gel in my bathroom...

“I guess one can't be flawless all the time.

“It does at least look very comfortable.”

Another wrote: “Meghan Markle needs a stylist. I said what I said.”

A third tweeted: “Her style is alright but the clothes are ill fitting.”

And in keeping with the bath theme another person posted: "And, don't forget the flowered bath robe that's too big for you!"

But one person did defend the former actress, posting: "I like her style."

And another praised her dress, commenting: "Meghan Markle showcases a softer, floral feminine look at Harry's cousins wedding in a blue floral Oscar de la Renta gown."

This person appreciated her entire style, writing: "Oh you gorgeous girl."

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex travelled to St Andrew and St Mary's Church in Stoke Rochford, Lincolnshire for the wedding.

Celia McCorquodale, Prince Harry’s cousin, wed George Woodhouse.

And the 29-year-old wore the same diamond tiara Princess Diana wore at her wedding to Prince Charles.

Royal fans couldn’t decide if they loved or loathed Meghan Markle’s wedding dress – here’s what they said.
