Published Apr 05, 2026
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex attended an event honouring exceptional young people of the Commonwealth this evening in London, as part of their roles as Commonwealth Youth Ambassadors.
Meghan, who since her wedding has exclusively worn neutral shades for official engagements, surprised onlookers by arriving in a sunny yellow dress by American designer Brandon Maxwell.
The crepe shift dress is currently in the sale and available to buy online at both Moda Operandi and Stylebop.
She paired the fitted midi-length dress with nude courts, Adina Reyter diamond earrings and a neat bun.
The official engagement is one of many that the newlyweds will attend as they continue the work that the Queen started during her lifetime of service to the 53 Commonwealth nations.
