Meghan Markle upcycles a radiant red gown for a surprise gala appearance
The Duchess of Sussex was back on the red carpet this weekend.
Meghan made a surprise appearance on Saturday night at the 2024 Children's Hospital Los Angeles Gala, held at the JW Marriott Los Angeles Live. For the occasion, she delivered a bold sartorial statement in a scarlet dress by Carolina Herrera – but this wasn’t her first time wearing the daring design. Rather, she repurposed the bustier column gown having previously worn it in 2021 for the Intrepid Museum Salute to Freedom Gala.
The radiant red dress still made an impression for its second outing, thanks to its fitted waist and plunging neckline. This time, Meghan opted to wear the gown without its detachable train, instead choosing the sleeker column silhouette. Her legs peeked out from a slit in the skirt, allowing a better look at her red, open-toed slingbacks.
Keeping the focus on her dress, Meghan accessorised simply with small diamond earrings, her gold Cartier Love bracelet, and a smattering of gold rings. Elsewhere, she added more sparkling touches by way of her glowing beauty look, which included a shimmering gold smokey eye, flushed cheeks, and a nude manicure, while her hair was styled in soft waves with a middle parting.
Though Prince Harry wasn’t at the event, the duchess didn’t walk the carpet alone. Instead, she was accompanied by longtime friend Kelly McKee Zajfen, who looked elegant in a ruffled lavender gown. Later in the night, Meghan also mingled with her fellow gala guests, including children who have benefitted from Children’s Hospital Los Angeles.
