The Duchess of Sussex's Maternity Fashion: October 2018 -

[Pranter]

Stunning look tonight...love that silver edge detail on the Dior dress...the movement of the dress is so elegant on the move. She looks great...a bit more of a bling earring.

Love the clutch with the bee on it!

Meghan looks gorgeous tonight. She's been looking fantastic throughout the whole tour so far.

 

[Nico]

Looking demure and regal. Couldn't ask more.
She dares Dior. Interesting ...

 

[Pranter]

Everything but her earrings were Dior.

The little glitter adds Something lovely to this already lovely dress and very fit for the situation and the place !

 

[DuchessMia]

Lovely dress and cape. I agree the detailing on the cape makes it pop.

 

[COUNTESS]

I agree!
This looks so much better than those clingy outfits she's been wearing.

I agree. The red dress was stunning and the other outfits very nice, too. The idea that being pregnant should be a billboard for the abdomen is unfathomable. She looked lovely and comfortable.

I love this look...I really can't find anything I don't like...the color is amazing! Love the embroidery and style...slight vintage feel. Hair, shoes, purse...perfect accessories.

The red dress has a retro or vintage vibe and the gloves complement that look. But, yes another thing to hang onto and not lose.

She really is styling Vintage. Think Audrey Hepburn. A great minimalist and stylist.

I think Meghan’s dress is inspired more by the white runway dress than the red one.

It seems a delicious amalgamation of the two with the flowing style of the dress (maternity, styled with an inverted pleat) and the focal point of the embroidered caplet. Very elegant and very beautiful.

Her beige evening caftan with its silver trim was lovely. I wondered how she was going to pull that one off as Moroccan women seem to wear dresses more in the vein of a thoub like those in Jordan (unless you are a romantic and follow Queen Noor and sort of float through the ether in her very own caftan style) . . . actually, it is a bit of a mishmash from family photos so I guess the women have taken their own dress style with them when they marry so there is no right or wrong.

I think this Dior gown has a lovely, elegant style and flow. However, I would have wished to see it in a more colorful shade. Perhaps something soft and subtle in lilac or light, pale green, or even pale pink. I don't think this cream or sand-like shade does much for Meghan's complexion (at least not in photos).

I do like the shiny, silvery detail on the sleeves, but it's not very visible except in close-ups. I think it would stand out more on a colorful dress in a soft, light-colored shade. Of course, there's nothing wrong with this selection, but I'm not very enamored of the overall look in this shade. It looks fine on Meghan, but I think it would have looked better in a soft color. But I suppose beige and soft cremes are part of her basic monochrome color-palette aesthetic.

Having just watched a video on the tour I like it even more. It moves beautifully and the colour seems like thick latte cream and the edging is even more beautiful than I had thought as she was holding her hand out to shake hands and the side on view was gorgeous and lush looking.

 

[Pranter]

I think the color I saw it called was Champange ...it looks blush in some lighting and cream in other lighting.

Here are additional views which show a bit more detail. In some of these photos, the gown appears to have a slivery beige sheen to it (right, like champagne) that doesn't come across in other photos. And yes, there is a luxe creaminess to it as well, that probably comes across better in person:

Nice to see her wearing some more relaxed pieces on this trip, and that she's repeating a jacket. I like the top.

 

[JuliannaVictoria]

She looks so comfortable here. I wish that she would have opted for better boots, but oh well. Love that J Crew jacket.

We have a change of outfit for the second engagement:

I think out of all the gowns Meghan has worn, this one has to be my very favorite. Its simple in its design lines and not overly embellished yet it serves to really give Meghan quite an exotic look.

Meghan really looks like a happy and healthy mother-to-be.

A fine and appropriate look for Meghan, but the beautiful horses are the stars!

 

[Pranter]

I think everything she's wearing at the Equestrian Center is recycled except the boots.

I like the pleated soft black dress she is wearing to the shopping excursion.

I can't think of much to say about the black pleated dress and white jacket. It looks fine, the jacket is nice, she looks comfortable. I'm just not a huge fan of those kinds of pleats.

 

[Lyonnaise]

Some are saying that the black pleated dress Meghan is wearing today is the dress she wore on her first visit to the ACU, without the black t-shirt over it.

Her jacket appears to be the same jacket she wore at a polo match while she and Harry were dating.

The DoS has been nailing it fashion wise on this tour. She looks simply gorgeous. ..stylish and regal...every time I click in for a peek!

I don't think it's the same. The one she wore on ACU was longer, while this one in Morocco is at the knee length.

In addition to the length seeming different, the pleats themselves look different to me. The dress today appears to have slightly wider/deeper pleats than the skirt she wore to the ACU.

 

[Pranter]

Some on Twitter are saying it's a Loyd/Ford pleated mini dress.

To be honest I usually really, really dislike almost everything Meghan wears or at least the way she styles it and it's been a million times worse as her pregnancy progresses. That said, she's really hit the nail on the head with this tour and I think much of that is down to the fact that she's actually wearing clothing that fits.

The red dress was absolutely stunning. I'm a bit blah about the accessories but I absolutely love the dress, the color, the fit, everything about that. I love, love, love the look of the blue blazer with the white shirt and black pants. It looks fabulous and comfortable and the blue adds that needed pop of color while the black and white striped cuffs fit so beautifully with the black and white outfit. I'm not a fan of the change to the black top. It looked so much better with the longer flowing white shirt. I think the black and white striped sweater was terrific with the black pants and looked even better because it fit as it was supposed to. I'm pretty blah about the black pleated dress and white jacket. It looked fine but nothing special there. As for the evening gown...I appreciate the idea of going with a Moroccan influence and the cut and fit are great but I think I would have much preferred this in a beautiful blue, green, or purple. I'm really not a fan of that champagne color anyway and I don't think it does much for her as well as the fact that those deeper jewel tones would have been beautiful with the silver accents and I feel like they kind of get lost with the champagne. Overall the clothing that actually fits does wonders for her look on this trip and I vehemently hope that continues once she's back home. I'm not sure who finally stepped up and told her that if she were going to be on a very public tour she really, really had to start wearing clothing that fits appropriately for her changing shape but three cheers for whoever it was.

I agree. I have loved everything she has worn on this trip. I look forward to seeing what she wears when she meets the King.

 

[Ista]

I love the color of the blue dress, and the fact that it's nice and flowy, but aside from that, I truly think this is a terrible, unflattering dress on her. The sleeves and the cut of the neckline are the main problem, but those gathers and tucks at the front also contribute to the unflattering look. I think she should swear off anything voluminous and ruffly.
