Meghan Markle’s presence at SXSW sparked controversy over her attire, drawing both praise and criticism online. While some admired her ensemble, others likened it to bedsheets, fueling a flurry of disparaging comments on social media.

Despite the fashion chatter, Meghan’s participation in the panel discussion, “Breaking Barriers, Shaping Narratives: How Women Lead On and Off the Screen,” alongside Katie Couric and Brooke Shields, highlighted important issues regarding women’s representation in media.

Her outfit, a Giuliva Heritage ensemble, showcased craftsmanship and sustainability. However, opinions on her attire remained sharply divided.

Beyond fashion, Meghan addressed personal experiences of online abuse during her pregnancies, advocating for a safer online environment, particularly for women and children.

Despite ongoing scrutiny, Meghan and Prince Harry’s commitment to causes like the Invictus Games remains steadfast, with Meghan echoing a broader call for societal change towards kindness and empathy.
