Meghan Markle gave birth to her son Archie on May 6, 2019. While the beautiful 38-year-old mother has said goodbye to her pregnancy weight, she has nevertheless kept the outfits she wore while pregnant. During September and October 2019, Prince Harry's wife made public appearances dressed in the same clothes she had worn a few months earlier during her pregnancy. A great lesson in recycling from the Duchess of Sussex.
Meghan Markle appeared at the opening ceremony of the One Young World Summit on October 22nd in a long-sleeved, mid-calf purple dress by Aritzia, which she paired with navy suede pumps. While the dress looked familiar to some fans, it wasn't the first time she had worn it to a public event. The former American actress had previously worn the same dress with a long red coat, cleverly coordinated with her pumps, during a visit to Birkenhead in January, five months before the birth of her son.
Her Maternity Outfits Reused in South Africa
While visiting South Africa from September 23rd to October 2nd with Prince Harry and their five-month-old son Archie, Meghan Markle reused four maternity outfits. Upon her arrival on September 23, she wore a sky-blue dress tied at the waist and fastened with a row of buttons down the front. She had previously worn this chic-casual dress in October 2018, when she visited Tupou High School on the island of Tonga in the Pacific.
For her second day in South Africa, Meghan recycled a long dress with green, brown, and white vertical stripes, designed by Martin Grant, which she had previously worn in October 2018 in Australia, for an afternoon on Bondi Beach.
On September 25, the third day of her trip, observers recognized the black jumpsuit with a knotted belt at the waist and a pretty V-neck that she wore in the "Forces For Change" video, made for her contribution to British Vogue magazine while she was pregnant and only published in July. The Duchess appeared at the end of the video in the jumpsuit that clinged to her baby bump, alongside Edward Enningful, the publication's editor-in-chief.
Finally, on October 1, 2019, the beautiful brunette opted for her sleeveless beige trench-coat-inspired dress from House of Nonie for her visit to Johannesburg. She had worn this dress in July 2018 in London for the opening of the Nelson Mandela exhibition at the Southbank Centre.
