Meghan Markle stepped out with Prince Harry for the 2018 Royal Variety Performance at London Palladium, and while she first appeared to be in a gown, this mama-to-be had a trick up her sleeve. Meghan worked a sequin-embroidered top from Safiyaa ($1,149) with a bespoke mermaid skirt from the brand that trailed the floor behind her.

While the shoppable version does not come affixed with straps, Meghan's decision to add a halter made her outfit a lot more functional as she climbed the steps in Aquazzura heels and toted her glittering box clutch, showing off her glowing Birks earrings and stunning engagement ring, right by her husband's side.

Meghan offered us all this brilliant hack right in the midst of the holiday season: create a makeshift dress with a bustier or ornate tank you can wear later with jeans, and get the most out of your look. Scroll to see Meghan's style from every angle, then shop her exact Safiyaa design, along with similar options for you to mix and match with maxis and trousers alike.
