Meghan Markle is pretty in pink.
The Duchess of Sussex looked radiant in a metallic jacquard dress by Colombian designer Johanna Ortiz ($2,150) for a visit to the National Centre for the Arts in Bogotá, Colombia, as she and Prince Harry continued their tour of the country on Thursday.
The “Suits” alum, 43, paired the chic patterned maxi — which featured a sweetheart neckline and a keyhole cutout — with brown Jimmy Choo sandals.
The royal wore her down hair in soft curls and accessorized with a Cartier necklace and other gold jewelry as she and her husband enjoyed an afternoon of cultural performances.
Harry, 39, had a relaxed summertime vibe for the outing in a beige blazer and trousers with a blue shirt.
The couple was joined by Colombian Vice President Francia Márquez and her partner, Rafael Yerney Pinillo, as well as Xiomara Suescun, the director of the National Centre for the Arts.
Johanna Ortiz — a native of Cali, Colombia — has been a notable designer in Markle’s fashion rotation.
The mom of two rocked a printed halter dress by Ortiz during her and Harry’s trip to Nigeria in May.
She also made a statement to the British royal family when she opted for a strapless gold dress from the designer to be honored at the Women of Vision Awards in May 2023.
The duchess looked elegant as she and her husband kicked off their four-day trip to Colombia Thursday morning.
Markle wore a navy halter-style vest ($598) and matching cropped trousers ($448) from Veronica Beard for a meeting at Márquez’s official residence in Bogotá.
The mom of two pulled her hair back in a sleek bun and styled the ensemble with Pippa Small stud earrings ($680), black Manolo Blahnik satin pumps ($725) and an ivory Loro Piana bag ($4,700).
