Meghan Markle Returns to Nottingham in Joseph Coat for First UK Outing

Meghan Markle made an appearance at The Community Recording Studio in Nottingham, the location of her and Prince Harry's initial royal engagement after their announcement in 2017. For this visit, she donned a burgundy double-face cashmere coat and a matching knit from Joseph, complemented by Jennifer Chamandi heels. This outing came on the heels of several British high-street fashion choices: a Marks & Spencer blazer and jeans in London the day before, and Boden trousers during a dinner with Malala Yousafzai earlier that week. Although British Vogue had released a list of British brands anticipated for her return in August, Meghan chose not to adhere to it. During her first Nottingham visit, her Strathberry bag and Mackage coat—available at Harrods—sold out rapidly. She later shared with The New York Times that this reaction heightened her awareness of the attention her clothing received and the messages they represented.
