Meghan Markle generates controversy for her dress to visit disadvantaged children
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex's trip to New York continues to make headlines. In the middle of last week, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle visited the Big Apple to resume their official schedule after becoming parents for the second time and appearing on the cover of ‘Time’ magazine as if they were true Hollywood stars.
The solidarity causes that the dukes have championed since they left the British royal family to go to live in California have starred in official commitments in the city of skyscrapers, but several controversies have also arisen in networks, such as their use of the private plane or the looks The luxurious ones that Markle has worn on this three-day tour.
The style that has generated the most controversy has been the one that she wore on Friday to visit the students of the PS 123 Mahalia Jackson school in the Harlem neighborhood. During her presence, Meghan read her book "The Bench," inspired by the relationship between her husband and hers, her son, Archie, to the children who welcomed her with open arms.
For this occasion, Markle chose a garnet ‘total look’ by Loro Piana, consisting of a cashmere coat, which costs 4,500 euros, and high-waisted, wide-leg trousers, valued at 1,500 euros. The duchess completed the look with some Manolo Blahnik salons that cost more than 500 euros.
The total look was 6,500 euros, an amount that has not gone unnoticed by users of social networks, who have been very critical of the Duchess's decision to wear luxurious clothes to visit underprivileged children.

The truth is that Markle has spared no expense for her big comeback in New York. Several American media have made a compilation of the most expensive clothes that she has worn during her three-day stay in the city. As they point out, the duchess would have spent about 44,000 euros on the outfits of the tour in which she has also been criticized for wearing winter pieces when she is still not cold. One of these items is Max Mara's camel coat which costs 3,700 euros and he brought to visit the UN on Saturday.
But without a doubt, her most expensive look has been the one she wore on Global Citizen Live. Hand in hand with her husband, Meghan appeared on stage as a Hollywood diva, wearing a white Valentino haute couture minidress adorned with rhinestones across her chest and bottom of her skirt.
The design in question is worth 3,800 euros and he combined it with some Cartier diamond earrings valued at 14,000 euros, the Cartier 'Love' bracelet that reaches 6,000 euros and the watch also from the same brand, which belonged to Princess Diana of Wales, which costs 10,000 euros.
