Well, well. Look who did NOT wear beige for her big night out! Do you think the Duchess of Sussex heard from her fans, most of whom begged her to ditch the beiges, camels and khakis? Meghan stepped out last night for the Paley Honors tribute to Tyler Perry. They posed together on the red carpet as well, and Meghan was being directed by a publicist on the carpet, because the photographers went absolutely crazy. There were even photographers positioned in the parking garage to get shots of Meghan entering and leaving the event.
As for Meghan’s look, she wore a strapless black Oscar de la Renta gown with a slit in the skirt. It’s very flattering and lovely. While I’m happy she didn’t wear beige, I’m falling on my knees in gratitude that she didn’t do a flat, too-sleek center-part chignon. Meghan pulled her hair back in a “messy” updo, but her hair looks fluffy and cute. The sleek center-part style is so ageing and I hope she abandons it forever. What else? Her diamond necklace is from Logan Hollowell, and she wore rings from Lorraine Schwartz and Engender.
The British media is making a big deal about how Meghan was there because Tyler Perry gave her family a place to live in LA in 2020. Like… since then, Meghan and Harry have genuinely become close friends with Tyler, so much so that Tyler is Princess Lili’s godfather. They’re family now.

Absolutely stunning !
I agree with Kaiser that Meghan looks better with a loose chignon or her hair down. The mid-part look at the Invictus ceremony makes her look a bit like Wallis Simpson, who loves to compare the two (totally different stories).
She’s so beautiful and this is lovely but sooooo boring. It doesn’t do her the justice she deserves in a gown. This is Jennifer Aniston dressing. This woman looks utterly incredibly in jewel tones, I wish she would wear them more!
I love everything about this styling hair, makeup, jewelry, clothing, everything! She looks amazing in it and very comfortable. It feels very Meghan. Not every event has to be a huge splash. I love color too, but sometimes you don’t feel like it. She’s not dressing for an audience; she’s dressing for herself and I love that and her look.
Wow. I love that dress. And I love her in it.
Wow, she looks amazing!
No wonder Kate and William are so put out by her. You can spin things many ways, but both of them could be jealous of her looks and presence. All the other distress they have exhibited about Meghan could have just spun out from that.
A very classic and pretty look. Meghan usually wears color for red carpet events. She wears white, beige, etc for business, charity events.
Exactly, black tie affair. Love her hair down, and to me, any hairdos looks good on her.
Man the UK press really hates Meghan to have nice things. Trashtler Mag tried to insinuate hypocrisy bc elitism and other bs simply bc of Meghan’s stunning diamond choker.
It rings hollow when Slumlord’s Wife wears diamonds, pearls and carries Chanel. These trolls are so ridiculous.
I was chuffed to see our Sis in sparkling diamonds and draped in joy, right after that dull State Banquet. It bothered me that the RF went out of their way to ensure Harry’s Princess never wore another tiara. God bless the child that’s got his own.
I might be wrong, but isn’t Logan Hollowell selling lab created diamonds and one of the companies Meghan invested in?
The necklace is beautiful, understated, and perfect with the dress. Classy, simple, and looks more expensive than the all the leftovers dripping in diamonds combined.
Logan Hollowell’s website indicates they use recycled gold, ethically sourced gemstones and conflict-free diamonds. Logan Hollowell, the jewelry designer, is an LA transplant from North Carolina; her earliest best-seller collections Big Dipper Constellation and Queen Water Drop “set her free.” Her jewelry company filed for CA LLC registration in 2014. Company growth appears to have been organic with no outside investors. Here’s 2021 article: https://dot.la/logan-hollowell-2655012986.html
The ‘Fortuna Tennis Necklace’ is listed on LH website as created with lab-grown diamonds. But Telegraph writer Sarah Royce-Greensill stated “Meghan’s version is set with natural diamonds, Hollowell confirmed.” IIRC Meghan has worn lab-grown diamonds elsewhere.
Meghan looks eloquent and that necklace she is wearing is stunning as well. The photos on Instagram shows how she and Kerry Washington were rocking out at their table to some tune being played. Looked like they had a very nice time.
I saw a video of that on twitter but also a photo and they were sitting Tyler Perry right next to Meghan. Definitely not D-listers.
*looks elegant
Her face and beauty do all the talking! What a stunning woman she is … no need to wear lots of jewelry when you are this beautiful
Meghan is systematically making the left-behinds who practically LIVE for moments to wear their big clunky, chunky old jewels look passé with her ethos of classic and classy, minimalist exquisite jewellery pieces.
100% agree … she has perfected the less is more approach. Look at her makeup, it looks she isn’t wearing any even though we know she is. Meghan’s makeup is really Daniel’s masterpiece.
I could not agree more. Meghan looks classic and modern, all in one effortless package. She can’t help it, she’s just this poised and gorgeous naturally. Deal with it, haters.
IKR!
She is so beautiful, love the fresh hairstyle. The dress is very boring though. My guess is that she did not want to have what she was wearing upstage the guest of honor.
Agree, she doesn’t want to upstage the guest of honour, unlike a certain Princess who chose to wear an eye-popping red outfit with the skirt deliberately hoicked way above her knees to show off/show up the South Korean president and his wife.
I think it’s fine to dislike and criticise the thing’s Kate’s done (or hasn’t done, LOL) and criticise her style; but comments like this I find cross a line. They seem weirdly slut-shaming and old-fashioned. Why does it matter if her skirt is over her knees? Are we living in 1954?
@Snoozer It was an ankle-length skirt that somehow managed to end up hiked up so far that the bottom hem was halfway up her thighs, whilst she exited a car in a manner so awkward and ungainly that you would really have to TRY to do it but also was perfect to show off her bare legs to the entire world.
She has never publicly exited a car in this awkward manner before, and dear GOD has she publicly exited cars quite a lot.
@SNOOZER. Calling out a flasher flashing was not slut-shaming. It’s unbecoming for anyone to expose oneself in public places. Not to mention that’s a state visit occasion and the guests were the VIP not her. It’s rude & disrespectful to the country of SK.
I’d call it understated, not boring. IMO the dress is beautiful but doesn’t photograph as well as it should when paired with a black background.
She’s a senior royal, who at this time, will be Queen Consort. The institution is based on conservative values. She’s not put to the same standard as an ordinary person. This is what she signed up for.
I think she’s wearing what she wants to wear, just like she does when she wears neutrals. I don’t think she gives any thoughts to what other people are saying, because she just radiates happiness and is stunning. However, those shoes woo!! More power to her because I do not understand how anyone can stand in shoes with angled heels like that. My lower back could never allow it. And why are the BM acting brand new? They announced that she was on the committee along with Harry this summer. They are friends, he is their child’s godfather, why wouldn’t she be there bare minimum but especially as she’s on the committee? Or are they trying to do their whole,” Hollywood hates her!” , blah blah blah?
Yes, those shoes! They’re crazy high and the heels are so slender. Well done to her for wrangling them and a train, and managing not only to stay upright but to look elegant and poised and at ease.
I’d be in a heap on the floor if I even thought about trying to walk in shoes like that.
@Dee(2) says:
“I think she’s wearing what she wants to wear, just like she does when she wears neutrals. I don’t think she gives any thoughts to what other people are saying….”
On the contrary, M puts a lot of thought into what she wears and where. She practically said as much. She said: “If there’s gonna be this bright light shining on us whenever we step out, then here’s what I want you to focus on.” And this approach includes outfits as well as the work/event/brand/person she (they) want to promote.
Also, if she’s going to an event to honor someone, she never wears outfits that would detract from that person’s moment.
Yeah but that’s not her giving thought to whether others don’t like that she wear neutrals, that’s her realizing that people pay attention to what she’s wearing so she’ll highlight a smaller brand, or a group. That’s redirecting attention not wearing red because random commenters don’t like that she wears camel.
I don’t think that was in reference to what she wears but regards to doing meaningful work that they care about and not being afraid to use the light that is shown on them as a tool to bring focus to those causes. It had nothing to do with what she wears but about wanting to use their influence to bring focus on causes instead of just what they wear. That is partly why she doesn’t dress so flashy and over the top for events. They are there for the causes that matter to them but she believes in simplicity in how she dresses to avoid taking the focus away from the real reason they are there, the cause or in this case the person she is there celebrating.
She’s really flipping the bird to all the whiners who love to bleat, “but Meghan has terrible feet!” or, “Meghan claimed to hate her feet!!” No one with ugly feet is wearing those shoes. My feet and back hurt looking at those shoes.
She is just stunning, she’s a walking ad for yoga with that posture.
Who says M has terrible feet? These people really are psychos. Btw I can tell you who DOES have terrible feet and that’s Cathy. Her feet are painful to look at!
Lovely
She looks lovely as always bur would it be really bad if she started wearing some more color? I mean her red Carolina Herrera dress looked so lovely on her back in October and I would love to see her in purple or maybe a darker green.
I think she wore black so as not to upstage Tyler, as it was his night. She didn’t want it to be all about her dress. She looks beautiful and elegant though🥰
Kerry was wearing a really lovely and cool dress from Christopher John Rogers. Kerry and Meghan are just two very stylish talented and glowing women.
A lot of women wore black last night. Think she wanted the focus on Tyler. This really is her style.
NO. Omg. She leans towards a neutral palette. She’s been showing that for years now. Y’all are as worsum as the British press about that lmaoooo geez.
Relax kels, It was just a comment about her dress🙂 she has the means and the body to experiment with different colors and styles and i hate that she is limiting herself to just a neutral color palette.
As I and others have said in Thai comment section, the goal was to not upstage the reason they were all there. It looked as if the color theme for the night was black and everyone looked wonderful, especially the guest of honor.
@ Chloe but why do you hate it so much when she obviously doesn’t see it as limiting. I’m relaxed (hence the lmao) it doesn’t take much energy to state how worsum it is that yall can’t accept that.
Wow, I didn’t even notice she didn’t wear earrings! That necklace is stunning, I really like the look overall.
Love the dress.👍
Hate the hair.👎
Wish she had recaptured those glorious CHLA Gala beach waves, only this time with a side part.
She really does seem to be aging backwards…
Also she’s been a fan of simple jewelry compare that to thos dripping in diamonds on salty island. Meghan looks way more beautiful & fresh, less really is more!
And I love her freckles!
she looks gorgeous!! I love that dress. When I first saw it last night I thought it was velvet and I looove black velvet but then realized its not velvet, maybe more of a crepe material? Anyway I think it looks great.
Her hair looks great and not fussy or too overdone. Something about her face looks different – the eyebrows maybe?
But anyway she looks happy and relaxed. Good for her.
And I’m LOLing at the beige hate – I think beiges etc look great on her – but also, she wore a red dress at her last big LA event and broke the British media for weeks.
I think she has had a bit too much forehead botox. It appears to me that her brows have dropped a bit, and she has that telltale bulging forehead vein that people who use too much get- normal muscle tone usually obscures it, but over relax those muscles, and hello! There it is. You’ll notice it on many celebrities.
That said, she looks understated and elegant, but very very glamorous here!
Didnt know that you moonlight as a comedian, @notsosocialB! You shoulda told us….we’d love to watch your act in other venues!
I’ve never had botox. I’m not overly thin. I have that vein in my head. My son teases me that he knows when I’m really mad at him when he can see it “move.” But he’s a little (6’4″) sh!t. (Love him)
What’s up, Kingston? Who’s “we?”
I’ve been here for at least 15 years. A bridge troll I am not.
The beige dress she wore to the Women in Hollywood gala is one of my favorites on her but she really wears a boatload of beiges and neutrals. She does look good in black, crisp whites and blues as well so doesn’t need to go all brights. This same color conversation comes up every time but she has her go to looks and palette it works for her.
The fit. The flow. What a lovely dress. Simple and timeless. The soft tendrils. The makeup. The single strand of diamonds. Meghan said you can keep your tiaras😂.
What was that about someone being irrelevant and hated by Hollywood, Tom Sykes? Come again? Anyway, Meghan looks glamorous and like she’s having a great time, unlike the Burgundy queen.
Here is Princess Meghan looking like the regal beauty she is . Meanwhile not so long ago this week, we had another person who should not be named cosplaying her stewardess on her flight looking ever but like she should be serving princess Meghan .
Meghan doesn’t have to hide herself anymore in case the Windsor women get outshone ..no more being shunted to the back , bundled in unflattering coats in dull neutrals, hair scraped back ..and despite all of that she still stood out with her smile , intelligence and natural grace. Now she is back in her element , on the red carpet where she belongs. How could we forget she is a public figure in her own right .she owns her space and of course she knows how to rock a flowing gown and high heels..she has been in the spotlight and carries herself beautifully..eat your silly hats Kate and Camilla . They could learn a thing or two on how to behave in public.
I think she looks great with her hair scraped back, she has got the right face for it.
Congrats to Lili’s godfather. Meghan’s dress flowed so prettily when she walked–It’s nice in pictures, but looks great in motion. Meghan, Kerry and Oprah looked like they were enjoying themselves with Tyler.
@Sunnyside up , Meghan looks beautiful with hair up or down or pulled back..the point is they were obviously pressuring her to keep herself muted . At the same time you would see Kate with cascading mermaid hair extensions , big flowery hats and in all the colours of the rainbow , parked up front and center , making an exhibition of herself ,not that it did her any good .Just saying that now Meghan can do whatever she feels like without having to kowtow to those women .
She looks Gorgeous love the gown and matching shoes
She looks great – elegant and completely appropriate for the event.
The Hollywood Reporter has a measured and neutral account – they mention that Tyler let H&M stay at his house, but they also say it was because their location in Canada was leaked and that they needed the security that Tyler could offer.
The Hollywood Reporter had one of the nastiest and most unsourced articles this year and by one of the very trolls that Harry was talking about. Interesting that they’re choosing to be neutral and measured this time.
It depends on the writer. They usually task H&M articles to the royal reporters (most of the time a british reporter), that is why they are so negative since those people work for the access from BRF. Always check the writer.
I know, this article was weirdly informative. They talked about Tyler, they quoted his speech, they got quotes from Kelly Rowland, and the bits about Meghan were facts, not opinions. Strange.
Maybe Tyler Perry’s people put the fear in them. As in you will not put mistruths about my goddaughter’s mom in this article. Or someone from the Paley Center. Even though the author of that terrible Hollywood Reporter article defended his “journalism,” it was a v bad look for the magazine. It was a poorly sourced hit piece and for a magazine that’s supposed to be better than that, I think it damaged their brand. But hey, maybe I’m biased. Guess we’ll see if the mag keeps going the tabloid route.
Gorgeous!
I love everything about her look. She’s glowing and looks so comfortable in her skin. I love that Meghan does what she wants with her looks. After dealing with fake style protocols on Shutter Island she deserves to wear what she wants.
“ Meghan was being directed by a publicist on the carpet, because the photographers went absolutely crazy. There were even photographers positioned in the parking garage to get shots of Meghan entering and leaving the event.”
Yes. This absolutely the treatment for someone who Hollywood has turned their backs on 🙂↔️
No one has told hollywood they’re supposed to hate her 🤣🤣🤣
Most of the royals wear far too much jewellery, they could take a leaf out of Meghan’s book and keep it simple. Far more elegant.
Meghan looked lovely but more importantly, she looks happy.
Wishing Meghan and Harry joy and peace
Meghan looks fabulous as usual ❤️ and very unbothered ❤️
Absolute understated perfection!
Meghan looks stunning and I love the necklace. For someone shunned in Hollywood everyone wants to take her picture. The BM is salty as usual because it can’t get photos and exclusives from the Sussexes. Most of the US media knows being being nice to Harry and Meghan will get them access; being @-h0les like the BM gets them nowhere.
She looks so good and so happy! Great to see her out celebrating. That dress is gorgeous. Really works for her. Would have like some simple diamond studs in her ears but the necklace is stunning. Nice she could support Tyler when he’s been so important in her life. He looked really good as well, and so tall. Was a very good day for the Sussexes!
She looks great, more importantly, she looks happy. Tyler Perry is definitely a part of their family now. That man literally saved their lives, then became the godfather of their little girl. It always amazes me that Tyler’s mother was a Diana fan and he wanted to help Harry partly because of that. Diana protected them even from the other side, while Charles still stays sh*tty.
I like her new red carpet style. The red dress and this look gives “effortlessly stunning vibes”. Her hairstyles are looser, her makeup looks are relatively simple, and there is not much jewelry, and she added a great dress. Can’t wait to see the next look.
She is just so effortlessly gorgeous and elegant. No matter what she wears — and I love this gown and the simple accessories — her posture and grace make her look like the true royal she is.
Her style seems so fresh and relaxed lately. Trés California!
Unfortunately, this is not flattering, and this is “going to the gym” hair.
May I look as unflattering as her in my life. I will take her going to the gym look please and thank u.
God I’d give my eye teeth to look like that and her hair looks great instead of being up in some dated, fussy bird’s nest of a mess like Kate.
It looked like a lot of the ladies were wearing black, like Meghan. That dress looks even better in motion. Love the not over the top jewelry and make up. I agree I prefer this hair style to the more severe middle part pulled back tight
Oh she looks so beautiful! The gal loves her neutrals and I think we can stop asking her to wear more color, she is who she is and she likes what she likes. While I do love her in color, I really disliked her Carolina Herrera rewear (even without the long train), the top is just a mess and I really hope we never see it again. This dress is so lovely with the sweetheart neckline, the small train, and the front slit. It’s very minimalist and “very mindful, very demure” as the kids like to say. Also probably didn’t want to steal Tyler Perry’s thunder and if all the other guests were wearing black, “she understood the assignment” (ok I’ll stop now).
I loved the look. My favorite are the shoes and the tan/glow.
Meghan is an effortless beauty.
Harry is a lucky man.
I have to say, I like her with sleek hair as well as her new looser look.
Meghan looks fantastic here, just classically elegant and understated. For me, this is a huge improvement on the red dress and the hair choice for that particular night – and I know that I’m going against the majority of opinions regarding that. Also think the less heavy eyebrow looks much better.
@Mads
ITA. I love this look. The train! The flow! The sweetheart neckline! The diamonds! I hope she has this dress in another color tho. It would be killer in emerald green!
I agree, I like Meghan in red but not that red dress. This dress in red would be good, but I also like her hair in a tight bun, she has the face to take a severe style.
I so agree with you. I strongly dislike the red dress, with or without train. The bust is horrible and ruins the dress for me. I am also no fan of the beach waves. I love her messy buns, soft tendrils to loosen up the look, and the tight buns or pony tails. And the natural make up. And lighter eyebrows.
In short, the look was perfect to highlight her georgeous face and fantastic posture. Pity that’s very likely the last we see of her this year, can’t wait for Whistler!
Meghan looked elegant not gaudy-she had an easy flow with look-it makes her look at ease and relaxed-she is a very lovely woman with very nice way of dressing for the occasion.
