Meghan Markle Just Suffered The Most Relatable, If Unfortunate, Wardrobe Malfunction

Meghan Markle Just Suffered The Most Relatable, If Unfortunate, Wardrobe Malfunction

Spare a thought for Meghan Markle’s stylist, as we have a feeling she’ll be in all kinds of trouble after the Duchess’ stunning Givenchy ensemble, worn on the last day of the royal tour in New Zealand, started making headlines for all the wrong reasons.

Blame it on our harsh antipodean sun, but as Meghan Markle greeted well-wishers on the streets, her divine Givenchy pleated skirt was rendered unmistakably see-through.

But Meghan is far from alone when it comes to royal see-through slip-ups: in addition to pretty much every marie claire staffer polled this morning, Princess Diana experienced a similar wardrobe malfunction in a sheer white skirt back in 1980; as did Kate Middleton while wearing cream McQueen at Ascot in 2017, reports USA Today.

Royals, hey? Clearly (excuse the pun), they're just like us.
