Meghan Markle glows in metallic dress by Colombian designer Johanna Ortiz during tour of the country
Meghan Markle is pretty in pink.
The Duchess of Sussex looked radiant in a metallic jacquard dress ($2,150) by Colombian designer Johanna Ortiz during 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 features a sweetheart neckline and a keyhole cutout — with brown Jimmy Choo sandals ($875)
While Markle styled the convertible dress with two straps, it can also be worn strapless, one-shoulder or with an included voluminous bolero shoulder ruffle.

The royal wore her down hair in soft curls and accessorized with a selection of Cartier pieces — including her yellow gold Juste Un Clou necklace ($16,200), Love bracelet ($7,350) and Tank Française watch, the latter inherited from Princess Diana — as she and her husband enjoyed an afternoon of cultural performances.
Harry, 39, had a relaxed summertime vibe for the outing in a tan blazer and khakis 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 wore 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 Veronica Beard vest ($598) and pants ($448) 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 kyanite earrings ($680), black satin Manolo Blahnik BB pumps ($725) and an ivory Loro Piana bag ($4,700).
With the couple’s tour scheduled to continue through Sunday, expect at least a few more looks before the Sussexes return stateside.
