The Duchess of Sussex wowed in a customised version of a red Self Portrait dress, when she and the Duke touched down in Tonga on Thursday.
Meghan, who has famously eschewed colour in favour of neutral tones, swapped her forest green Jason Wu dress for a $628 bright red floral dress, perhaps in a nod to the Tongan flag.
Despite making a rare fashion faux pas by leaving the tag on her red outfit, the 37-year-old mum-to-be looked radiant in the red design.

The Self Portrait website reads: ‘The belted waist emphasises the feminine figure while ladylike floral embroidery and a pleated skirt creates a flattering silhouette’.
