Meghan Markle's Sheer $75,000 Engagement Photo Dress Will Make You Say, "Oh My!"
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle recently released a pair of gorgeous new engagement photos, and we couldn't help but be instantly drawn to Meghan's choice of a sheer, embroidered gown for one of the snaps. The dress in question comes from British couture house Ralph & Russo, and is rumored to be worth a whopping £56,000 (almost $75,000).
We love that she took advantage of the opportunity to have a proper princess moment in couture, but Meghan's choice of designer also shows how savvy she is; this was the perfect opportunity to show off a rare piece of British couture. Ralph & Russo has the honor of being the first British brand in almost 100 years to be elected to show on the official schedule at Paris Haute Couture Week.
Take a closer look at the dress ahead, accessorized accordingly with her one-of-a-kind engagement ring, then shop similar versions of her ensemble, and be sure to read up on the details about Meghan's ivory sweater, which she wore for the black and white photo that was released.
