Meghan Markle Wears Caped Safiyaa Gown in Fijian Blue Shade to State Dinner in Fiji

Having traveled to Fiji earlier in the day, where Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's arrival was celebrated with a Veiqaravi Vakavanua welcome ceremony, the Duchess stepped out in the evening for a state dinner.

Meghan, of course, arrived in Fiji looking like an angel in a pearl white Zimmermann dress. But she upped her royal wardrobe game later in the evening when she changed into a blue Safiyaa Ginkgo cape dress for a state dinner at the Grand Pacific Hotel, which was hosted by the President of Fiji.

As the Daily Mail reports, the shade of the Safiyaa gown is a Fijian blue, worn in tribute to the country. And even though Meghan didn't wear a tiara to the state dinner, she apparently borrowed her stunning diamond earrings from a member of the royal family (per Meghan's Mirror and royal commentator Emily Andrews), rumored to be Harry's grandmother, Queen Elizabeth.
