Prince Harry and Meghan Markle landed in Melbourne on Monday night for an informal four-day tour of Australia. The visit marks their return Down Under eight years after their first overseas trip as newlyweds. The couple, who stepped down as senior royals and now live in California, planned charitable engagements in Melbourne, Canberra, and Sydney.
Swapping their home in sunny Montecito for Melbourne, the Duchess of Sussex and Prince Harry began their tour with a focus on Australian brands in her wardrobe. On day one, Meghan wore a sleeveless dress by Australian label Karen Gee, paired with Dior shoes and jewellery from Real Fine Studio, as reported by Vogue. This monochrome look in neutral creams and khakis echoed her style from an earlier tour of Jordan, where she favored Veronica Beard outfits. The pared-back approach continued later with a suede skirt and jacket from another Australian brand, St Agni, during a visit to the Australian National Veterans’ Art Museum. Despite their independent life post-royal duties, the pair lined up several charitable engagements across the cities, though specifics remain undisclosed in initial coverage.
