That said, the Duchess failed to take her own advice on several red-carpet occasions.
Fashion critics have called her out one too many times since she stepped into the spotlight.
However, the bird silhouettes were a superfluous reference to ornithology and the geographic theme of the evening.
She sorely missed the mark with this one, bypassing the semi-formal attire and jumping straight into black tie.
The gauzy bandeau blouse emphasized her short torso and looked imbalanced against the never-ending legs of her trousers.
Mid-rise bottoms would have evened out the proportions, but swapping her blouse would have worked just as well.
Instead, some intentional accessorizing would have shifted the focus away from the ill-defined waistline.
Thus, she can’t be faulted for supporting small businesses and more affordable brands.
Altogether, it isn’t the most horrendous outfit in her style repertoire, but it did lack cohesiveness.
However, 2018 was an eventful year for Markle, to be fair.
She was understandably very busy.
However, we hope to never again see the stunning former actor disappoint in another ill-proportioned outfit.
