Meghan Markle is taking a lot of fashion risks during her 16-day royal abroad with Prince Harry

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex attended the Australian Geographic Society Awards ceremony at the Shangri-La Hotel in Sydney on Friday night after their visit to Tonga. Meghan was presenting awards to young people to honor their achievements in conservation and adventure.  

For the event, Harry wore a navy suit with a light blue tie. The former “Suits” actress chose a bold, black and white Oscar de la Renta gown that featured birds all the way from the bodice to bottom of the dress. 

It was a show-stopping, gorgeous look and all-too-appropriate for the awards (and Harry’s speech on the environment):

Over the course of the couple’s trip, the duchess has worn a series of stunning dresses. 

Most fans loved her bold look at a state dinner in Fiji, where she donned a $1,430 blue dress by Safiyaa complete with a cape (giving us serious Gwyneth Paltrow vibes). The color of her dress was “Fijian blue” ― a sweet tribute to her hosts ― according to The Sun reporter Emily Andrews.

The duchess has also worn two all-white looks, which, of course, hark back to her dreamy royal wedding gowns from May 19.
