Prince Harry and Meghan Markle made a welcome return to public life last week with their three-day whirlwind visit to New York City.

While the couple was all about business, visiting a 9/11 memorial at the World Trade Centre site and advocating for vaccine equity at the Global Citizen Live event, the mini-tour was also a chance to admire the duchess' stellar style.

Meghan, 40, pulled out all the stops for their final appearance at the Global Citizen Live event in Central Park, sporting a white embellished mini dress by designer Valentino.

The mum-of-two was summer-ready, despite the fact that it was technically autumn in the States, in the chic frock which retails for a cool $6,200 (£3,300).

The 'San Gallo Couture Mini Dress' featured beaded embroidery and floral accents around the collar, cap sleeves and hemline which caught the sunlight as Meghan and her husband Harry, 37, addressed the crowds.

The former Suits star paired the crisp dress with a pair of black stiletto heels by Gianvito Rossi and a black Dior handbag personalised with the letters 'DSSOS' for Duchess of Sussex.

Fans gushed over Meghan's look on social media, with one Instagram user declaring it, "Gorgeous!!"

"I love this dress. Very fun and cute," added another, while a third wrote, "The details on the dress are so pretty."
