Meghan paid a special tribute to Princess Diana during the event as she wore the late Princess of Wales’ diamond cross necklace. Meghan also wore a pair of vintage gold knotted earrings from Dior and a £7,050 bangle from Cartier.

The former Suits actress stepped onto the stage wearing a £265 red ‘Dire’ dress from Nigerian designer Oríré. The dress was “ethically” created and Meghan paired it with her Aquazzura sandals.
She accessorised with a £12,500 ‘Baby Reverse’ diamond tennis necklace from Logan Hollowell and £695 Yellow gold and diamond semi hoop earrings from Kimai.
Day three
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex spent just three days touring Nigeria. On their final day, Meghan stepped out wearing a skirt made of Aso Oke, a hand-woven cloth from south-west Nigeria, which she had been gited earlier on the trip.
She paired the skirt with a £265 button-down white shirt from Carolina Herrera and a pair of Burberry sandals she had worn previously. Meghan completed the look with a pendant necklace engraved with Archie and Lilibet’s names (£2,039.50) and her pinky ring from Lorraine Schwartz.
She also added her diamond hex tennis bracelet from Ariel Gordon and Cartier yellow gold Tank Francaise watch to complete the look. She then changed into a stunning outfit for a reception hosted by Nigerian Chief of Defence Staff General Christopher Gwabin Musa.
For the event, Meghan wore a bold sleeveless gown by Carolina Herrera which she previously wore to announce her pregnancy with Princess Lilibet, The Duchess of Sussex also wore the dress for Prince Archie’s first birthday.
She completed her look with a pair of £2,605 ‘Large Gold Hammered Disc Earrings’ from Jennifer Meyer as well as her pinky ring from Lorraine Schwartz, Ariel Gordon tennis bracelet and Cartier watch. Meghan then had one final outfit to show off.
She changed into a £1,692.40 ‘Summer Counts Wool and Wilk’ maxi dress from Johanna Ortiz which featured a floral pattern and halter neck detail. She added a pair of black Heidi Merrick sunglasses worth £171.58 and wore a pair of traditional Nigerian coral drop earrings which she had been gifted on the trip.
Meghan also wore a diamond ‘Snowflake’ stackable ring from Birks worth £5,268.19. In total, her new clothing and jewellery over the three days cost £117,207.26.
Meghan’s expensive outfits come despite the extreme levels of inequality in Nigeria, where more than 112million people are living in poverty. The inequality is not caused by a lack of resources, with Nigeria being the largest economy in Africa, but instead by those in charge being out of touch with the struggles of everyday people.
Instead, it is due to the misallocation of resources, with political corruption adding to the struggles. In one example of poverty in Nigeria, the amount of money the richest Nigerian man can earn annually from his wealth is sufficient to save 2million people from poverty.
