Meghan went all out for the
evening event, hosted by the U.K.’s Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson. She wore a
Black Halo belted sheath dress (the brand is based in her hometown of L.A.), a
pair of black strappy Aquazzura velvet pumps, a new Gucci suede and leather
shoulder bag, and a pair of Birks diamond swirl earrings.
The Black Halo “Jackie-O
Belted Dress" is a classic (and retails for a kind-of, sort-of,
if-you-feel-like-splurging affordable £266. It is so classic, in fact, that
Meghan is far from the first celebrity to sport it. The dress, which comes in a
range of colours, has been a red carpet staple for years.
Blake Lively wore a white
version of the dress to the 2007 CW Up fronts at Madison Square Garden in New
York City:
Kim Kardashian wore the
white version of the dress to the one-year anniversary part for The 944 Magazine
in Los Angeles in 2007:
Tyra Banks wore a tan
version to the 4th Annual New York Times Sunday with the Magazine event at
TheTimesCenter in New York City in 2009:
Katherine Heigl wore the
dress in blue to the Peter Alexander Flagship Boutique Grand Opening and
Benefit in Los Angeles in 2008:
Dozens of celebrities have
been photographed in the iconic dress over the years. Other members of the
Black Halo club include Britney Spears, Fergie, Kelly Clarkson, Kelly Ripa, and
Lisa Rinna. Welcome to the club, Meghan.
