Royal family experts accurately predicted Meghan Markle’s decision to forego attending Charles’s coronation and insightfully discerned her underlying motives.

There was speculation that Meghan opted out of the event to avoid being overshadowed in the sea of celebrities, where her presence might not command as much attention as she desired.

One astute expert even foresaw Meghan’s forthcoming “grand entrance,” anticipating that she would select an occasion where she could bask in the spotlight as the sole star.

Meghan’s attendance at the Women of Vision Awards in New York validated this foresight. Her arrival at the ceremony was orchestrated to mirror a regal appearance, and her choice of attire ensured she would be impossible to overlook.

Cloaked in opulent gold from head to toe, Meghan donned a resplendent gold brocade dress, complemented by a matching gold purse, earrings, bracelets, and sandals.

The ensemble, including the dress designed by Colombian designer Johanna Ortiz, Tom Ford sandals, and a Carolina Herrera purse, amounted to a substantial investment in her appearance.

However, Meghan’s extravagant outfit stirred criticism for its apparent incongruity with the event’s purpose.

While other award recipients dressed modestly, some in business attire or casual jeans, Meghan’s sartorial choice seemed out of place for an event dedicated to honoring individuals championing women’s rights rather than a typical Hollywood gathering.
