Meghan Markle has sparked a fashion fan frenzy after sporting a recycled £4,595 ($5,990) red Carolina Herrera dress to an event in Los Angeles on Saturday.

The Duchess of Sussex, 43, who now resides in California, looked stunning as she took to the red carpet at the LA Children’s Hospital gala.

Appearing to take on the Princess of Wales’s style advice, Meghan chose to rewear a dress that she previously wore to a New York City gala to honour military personnel on the eve of Veterans Day and Armistice Day in 2021.

Princess Kate, 42, is often known for recycling her looks. She chose to rewear her £1,335 peplum-bodice, fit-and-flare frock that she first debuted at Wimbledon in 2022 to an engagement in Southampton last summer.

The glamorous event, held at LA Live’s event deck, featured performances by Demi Lovato and appearances from Hollywood stars like Kaley Cuoco and Jamie Lee Curtis.

Prince Harry was absent from the event last night as he has paid a visit to Lesotho for a series of engagements for his charity, Sentebale.

Express.co.uk revealed yesterday that the Duke has extended his solo trip abroad without Meghan Markle.

According to a well-placed source, the Duke of Sussex, 40, was due to head back to California this weekend to reunite with his wife Meghan, 43, and their two children, but has chosen to prolong his solo trip by an extra few days.

The source added that the Duke will likely head to Johannesburg and Cape Town for “private time” with family and friends. Another secret visit, which has bizarrely been kept out of his official diary, is also planned.

After seeing pictures of Meghan’s look from the LA event last night, Sussex fans took to social media to express their opinions.

One fan commented: “She looks young, beautiful and healthy. Her hair is lovely [pink-heart emoji].”

Another, noticing that it was the same dress she wore in 2021, wrote: “The way [Duchess] Meghan bought this red gown back but in such a simple but elegant way and then changed up her hair like she is that girl.”

Complementing Meghan’s look, another fan wrote: “She stepped out so beautifully.”

Another commented: “What a woman [heart-eyed emoji]”, whilst another wrote, “She looks great!”

Whilst Harry recently undertook solo trips to New York City and London, Meghan is said to have remained in California with their two children.
