Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s 10-day trip to South Africa flew by with the couple, as well as four-month-old Archie Harrison, visiting six countries during their time overseas. The trip, which marked the Duchess of Sussex’s official return from maternity leave, saw Meghan attend many solo engagements, a lot of which were focused around women’s rights and ending gender-based violence in South Africa.
With multiple outfit changes a day, the 38-year-old used her platform to highlight local designers, promote sustainable fashion and to rewear beloved items from her last royal tour. She also wore one style of dress a total of six times, which means we’re guaranteed to see a spike in the sophisticated but relaxed look.
