Meghan wore a Carolina Herrera floral embroidered cape worth £4,800 along with streamlined trousers. The issue arises from the fact that Meghan, a Nigerian woman, proudly wore an item adorned with cotton plants to a black art and history museum. This is despite the historical context that slaves were primarily brought to the US for cotton picking. Critics argue that this choice of attire demonstrates Meghan Markle's tone-deafness. Interestingly, Meghan had celebrity stylist Jamie Mahi for the job, known for fashion transformations and styling celebrities like Adele and Jennifer Lawrence.
This event coincided with another significant announcement - Princess Katherine's cancer diagnosis. Meghan's attendance at the event promoting her lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard, sparked criticism, especially coming shortly after King Charles announced his own cancer diagnosis. The timing led to accusations of insensitivity, overshadowing Meghan's brand launch with concerns about the health of the Princess of Wales.
According to body language expert Judy James, Harry appeared a bit nervous next to his wife at the Kinsey African-American art and history collection event. Meghan seemed more assured, displaying passionate gestures, while Harry appeared as a slightly anxious sidekick, waiting his turn to join in the conversation.
In summary, Meghan Markle's choice of attire at the Kinsey Collection event, along with the timing of her lifestyle brand launch amidst Princess Katherine's cancer diagnosis, has drawn criticism and raised questions about sensitivity and awareness.
