Monochrome Meghan dons a £185 black and white Reiss dress as she joins Adwoa Aboah

The Duchess of Sussex has joined forces with Annie Lennox to mark International Women’s Day with a star-studded panel discussion hosted by the Queen’s Commonwealth Trust. 

Dressed in a £185 Reiss dress and £1,245 Alexander McQueen blazer, Meghan, who was announced this morning as vice president of the Trust, was joined by model and activist Adwoa Aboah and Julia Gillard, former Prime Minister of Australia.

During the discussion, pregnant Meghan spoke excitedly about 'our little bump' and joked that she could feel the 'embryonic kicking of feminism'. 

'I'd seen this documentary on Netflix on feminism and one of the things they said during pregnancy was "I feel the embryonic kicking of feminism,"' Meghan said. 'I love that. So boy or girl or whatever it is, we hope that that's the case, our little bump.'  


Today's event, hosted at King’s College London, was designed to bring together a special panel of female 'thought-leaders' and activists to discuss some of the obstacles faced by women today. 

She was greeted on arrival with a somewhat awkward kiss from Lord Geidt, former Private Secretary to the Queen and current chairman of the Queen's Commonwealth Trust. 

Meghan, who is eight months pregnant, teamed her sixties-inspired 'Azzura' dress with a £540 Stella McCartney bag and £495 Manolo Blahnik 105 BB pumps. 

It is the first time the 37-year-old has stepped out in Reiss, the UK label loved by her sister-in-law the Duchess of Cambridge, while her tailored McQueen blazer is an old favourite.
