Meghan Markle wears retro £185 dress by Reiss on International Women’s Day



Following the announcement on Friday morning that Meghan Markle has become vice-president of The Queen’s Commonwealth Trust, which champions young leaders around the world, she stepped out for International Women’s Day to take part in a panel convened by the organisation.

The 37-year-old was joined for the discussion at Kings College London by a whole host of powerful women: Annie Lennox, Adwoa Aboah, Julia Gillard, Chrisann Jarrett and Angeline Murimirwa to talk about a range of issues affecting women today.

The heavily pregnant duchess wore a short, retro-inspired shift dress with a high neckline and monochromatic pattern. The printed ‘Azzura dress’ is from British high street brand Reiss. It costs £185 and is still available in the majority of sizes

“The black-and-white Azzura dress channels the mood of the 1960s with its block-colour swirl design and a simple shift silhouette” states the retailers website.
