Meghan Markle shines in same dress she wore for Prince Archie’s first birthday on Mother’s Day in Nigeria
Some outfits never go out of style.
Meghan Markle stepped out on Mother’s Day in the same dress she wore for Prince Archie’s first birthday party in 2020.
The Duchess of Sussex, 42, was spotted donning the sunny yellow Carolina Herrera style — which she paired with nude Aquazzura slingback heels – at a reception at the State Governor House in Lagos, Nigeria, on Sunday.
Markle, who pinned her hair up for the occasion, dazzled in the flowing design as she walked hand in hand with her husband, Prince Harry.
She accessorized with an Ariel Gordon Diamond Hex Tennis Bracelet ($5,000), Jennifer Meyer Large Hammered Disc Earrings ($3,250) and a gold Aurate Collar Necklace ($6,000) reminiscent of one once worn by her late mother-in-law, Princess Diana, during a visit to the same country in 1991.
The Duke of Sussex, 39, sported a beige blazer, white button-up, a black tie and slacks.
In pictures from Markle and Harry’s Netflix docuseries, the “Suits” alum wore the same dress while celebrating her son turning 1 year old in May 2020.
At the time, the former actress styled the gown without any jewelry and wore her hair long and loose.
Aside from Archie, now 5, the couple also share 2-year-old daughter Princess Lilibet.
Markle and Harry have spent the past few days in Africa as they were personally invited by Nigeria’s Chief of Defense Staff, General Christopher Gwabin Musa OFR.
Ahead of the reception, they spent their last day in the country visiting Ilupeju Senior Grammar School to watch the Giants of Africa basketball exhibition, per People.
As they arrived in Lagos from the capital of Abuja, they were greeted at the airport with a traditional dance performance by local dancers, per the outlet.
The Duchess arrived wearing a white button-up shirt and a traditional Nigerian skirt she received during their visit.
As for the Duke, he wore the same fit as he did to the reception.
Markle has made several fashion statements since arriving in the country on Friday as she donned a Heidi Merrick backless peach dress with gold accessories, including vintage gold Lanvin button earrings.
