After giving birth to a baby boy [1] on May 6, 2019, Meghan Markle [2] was soon ready to make her first appearance alongside her new family. Meghan and Harry posted for photos at Windsor Castle [3], where they introduced their son to the world. Meghan opted for something comfortable and classic, a staple in her wardrobe: the white trench dress. Meghan owns a few neutral versions of the silhouette, including one blush version by House of Nonie [4], along with her long-sleeved number from Line the Label [5], which she wore for her engagement portraits.
Aha! So it seems Meghan just might have a go-to piece for momentous occasions such as this one. We don't blame her for sticking with what works. This time, she enlisted British designer Grace Wales Bonner [6] to craft her look, an artist who recently collaborated with Dior on the brand's Cruise 2020 collection [7]. The double-breasted design features marble buttons, pockets, and a tie waist, and Meghan finished the ensemble with Manolo Blahnik pumps and a Jennifer Meyer necklace with three turquoise stones [8] — a subtle reference to the number of loved ones [9] in her growing family, perhaps? Read on for an all-angles view of Meghan's special outfit, then shop inspired trench dresses.
