From a laser-cut mini dress [1] to a crisp pantsuit [2], Meghan Markle [3] donned several standout looks for the 2022 Invictus Games [4], which also saw Prince Harry in attendance. In fact, the event hosted in the Netherlands marked their first joint visit to Europe since making their royal exit [5].
Markle's choice to mostly wear white during her trip reads like a fresh start, offering hope in a moment marked by a pandemic and a war in Ukraine. At the welcome party, she wowed in an all-white Valentino suit [6] consisting of a double-breasted blazer and tailored trousers. Accessorising with Valentino Garavani's studded leather shoulder bag and a few of her signature jewellery pieces [7], Markle made a case for elegant power dressing.
She exuded that same effortless sophistication at the opening ceremony in a Princess Diana-inspired draped bodysuit [8] by New York label Khaite, tucked into smoking pants, and again at the IGF Reception, where she posed alongside Prince Harry in a refined Valentino mini dress [9], embellished with floral laser cutouts across the shoulders and neckline. She also conveyed casual elegance at a sitting volleyball competition, in an ivory belted jacket by Brandon Maxwell paired with blue jeans and a gold pendant necklace encrusted with moon and star motifs.
