Meghan Markle’s latest appearance did more than just light up Kevin Costner’s charity stage — it sparked a conversation about her wardrobe. According to experts, Markle’s dazzling display of gold and diamonds was about more than just fashion. The Duchess of Sussex has been carefully shaping her public persona since stepping back from royal duties in 2020. She is now being accused of sending “conflicting messages” through her wardrobe choices.
Meghan Markle’s wardrobe choices have more to do with fitting into Hollywood, expert claims
At Costner’s high-profile One805Live! charity event in Summerland, Meghan Markle’s wardrobe choices were all the rage. According to Page Six, Markle stepped out in a $2,490 navy blue Carolina Herrera halter dress and stacked her look with multiple shiny jewelry. Besides her $160,000 engagement ring, she wore Princess Diana’s $24,000 Cartier Tank Francaise watch, a $7,000 Cartier Love bracelet, and an additional tennis bracelet worth $5,000.
The glittering ensemble followed weeks after both seasons of her Netflix lifestyle and cooking series showed clothing racks filled with multi-thousand-dollar designer pieces and a kitchen stocked with Le Creuset cookware.
PR expert Ryan McCormick told the Daily Mail that Markle’s down-to-earth persona now feels blurred. He said, “Wearing that kind of expensive jewelry communicates, ‘I am in the upper class.’” McCormick added, “This definitely makes it harder for the Duchess to be perceived as ‘one of us.’” Meanwhile, he noted that the combined value of Markle’s jewelry at the charity event amounted to several times the average American’s yearly salary.
Additionally, royal commentator Kinsey Schofield suggested that the duchess’s luxurious style may be less about curating authenticity and more about fitting into her Hollywood social circle. She told the tabloid, “Her habit of wearing hundreds of thousands of dollars in jewelry feels less like a play for an audience and more like a way of ‘keeping up with the Joneses’ in Santa Barbara.” Schofield added, “I simply think she’s competing with her very famous and very rich neighbors.”
While Meghan Markle balances her lifestyle brand, the public still wants glimpses of the approachable duchess she once was, and her wardrobe remains a topic for public scrutiny.
