Duchess Meghan makes a bold return to party dressing for the closing ceremony of the 2023 Invictus Games.

The Duchess attended the final event of the tournament with Prince Harry, where the couple cheered on performances from Rita Ora and Eurovision star Sam Ryder. For the occasion, the duchess wore a strapless column dress by Cult Gia, with an overlay of floral leather appliqués stitched along the sides with subtle silver detailing and an open gap in between. The top was layered over an opaque mini-length underlay, leaving the midi-length skirt to incorporate tiny peek-a-boo cutouts. Meghan added a pair of beige pointed-toe pumps by Aquazzura and accessorized briefly with small diamond hoops and a gold Cartier bracelet.

For her glam look, the star wore her hair in a sleek bun with a center part, paired with a natural makeup look and glossy pink lips.

The fun and colorful piece features similar details to the jaw-dropping look she wore to the 2023 Women of Vision Awards in NYC last May, featuring bold color and peek-a-boo detailing. Johanna Ortiz’s strapless, metallic-gold dress featured a small diamond-shaped keyhole cutout and a mid-leg slit. She completed the look with strappy gold Tom Ford heels, a small gold Carolina Herrera clutch and an array of gold jewelry.

Since landing in Germany on Tuesday, Meghan has worn a series of chic monochromatic looks for tournament day events, ranging from a late-summer shorts suit, to a silky brown button-down and slacks, to a cinched Zara romper. A crisp blazer. Earlier today, she looked elegant in a silk cream ensemble courtesy of Kuyana, paired with high-waisted trousers.
