Whether you’re a fan or a critic of With Love, Meghan, there’s no escaping the fact that the Netflix show, which has just released a “holiday special” has generated much discussion. This is not just due to Prince Harry’s cameos or Meghan’s festive hosting advice, her wardrobe has also been the focus of much speculation. Aside from crips white shirts and sumptuous cashmere, the Duchess of Sussex can also be seen in a green gown, an item she’s had in her wardrobe for some time.
The bias-cut satin dress is Galvan’s Ushuaia gown, a best-selling style for the brand. Meghan wore it for a 2022 photo shoot with Variety, which has prompted some of her fiercest critics to suggest she took it without asking, a claim her spokesperson has denied as “categorically false” and “highly defamatory.” Dress drama aside, however, it is undeniably a perfect party outfit, which is handy for this time of year when one is facing endless invitations to various dressed-up events.
There are, in fact, a handful of similar green dresses on offer currently, suggesting that Meghan has inadvertently tapped into a micro trend. Festive without feeling in any way novelty, a green dress suits every skin tone and will look just as good with black or muted accessories as it will clashing jewel tones for the maximalists among us.
It also, as Meghan proves simply be re-wearing her Galvan creation, won’t go out of style. So, consider this your ultimate party piece that isn’t, in fact, just for this Christmas.
