Meghan Markle's Latest Outfit Incorporated 4 Flattering Styling Tricks
Meghan Markle just stepped out with soon-to-be-husband Prince Harry at the 25th Anniversary Memorial Service To Celebrate The Life And Legacy Of Stephen Lawrence. By now, it’s no surprise that her style was on-point, but we were particularly pleased to see Markle incorporating some flattering styling tricks into her outfit. Oftentimes, a cute outfit is just as much about the fit as it is the style, so we love picking up tricks from some of the world’s most stylish women—Markle included.
The first feature of Markle’s Hugo Boss dress that made for an instantly flattering fit is the belted waist. By cinching her body at it’s smallest part, the belt slenderised the look, without being too tight. In addition to the belt, the neckline of the dress also drew attention towards her waist, with the v-neck drawing the eyes back to the slimming belt. Still modest enough for royalty, the v-neck showed just enough skin to elongate her neck without bearing showing too much. A final feature of the dress that made it so well-suited for Markle’s body was the silhouette. By opting for an A-line midi, the style Markle wore showed just enough leg, but flared out below her waist, once again highlighting her slimmest part.
And it wasn’t just Markle’s dress that made the outfit so flattering; her shoes also played a large part in the equation. Nude heels are always a good bet, as they create the look of an elongated leg. The pointed-toe version she choose was especially elongating, however, as the pointed toe creates an even longer line for the eye to follow, all the way to the tip of the toe. According to Footwear News, the nude suede pumps were Manolo Blahnik BB pumps and seem to be a favourite style of hers, as it’s allegedly the third time she’s stepped out in the style. While her exact dress isn’t available for purchase online, there is a similar style available. We’re guessing this dress, along with the shoes, are about to sell like wildfire—considering that the Meghan Markle effect seems to be in full swing. To get your hands on the look before it’s gone, keep scrolling to shop her style.
