It turns out that the royal family experts were right. Meghan Markle did not wish to attend Charles’ coronation, as they correctly identified.
After Meghan Markle declined the invitation, it was suggested that she did not want to get lost in the celebrity crowd. Therefore, she would not have received much attention. Another expert predicted that Meghan would make her “big appearance” soon, choosing an event where she would be the only star. The Duchess’ appearance at the Women of Vision Awards in New York confirmed this prediction.
Almost as a royal appearance, Meghan arranged her arrival at the ceremony. There was no way she could go unnoticed with her attire. Meghan Markle wore a gold gown from head to toe, while Megan chose a shiny gold brocade dress. Gold earrings, gold bracelets, and gold purses were in her hands. There were even gold sandals. The price wasn’t cheap at all.
Johanna Ortiz’s dress is estimated to be worth $2,000, Tom Ford sandals at $1,500, and Carolina Herrera purse at more than $1,000. The same outfit might not have raised any objections if it had not been deemed totally inappropriate.It wasn’t a Hollywood event, but the presentation of awards to women who distinguished themselves in the fight for gender equality. Unlike Markle, the other winning nominees wore modest clothing – some wore business suits, others wore jeans.
