Duchess Meghan wore a cream Khaite bodysuit for the Invictus opening ceremony

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex attended the opening ceremony of the Invictus Games today, Saturday April 16th. The wide-shots of the crowd are particularly moving. We haven’t seen an Invictus Games since 2019, and so much has happened since then, including a global pandemic. More than six million people have died from Covid since the last games were held. These veterans fought for their countries and then they fought to make it to the Hague, to celebrate their wounded warrior community. It’s so moving.

Prince Harry wore a grey suit with no tie, because the man said “f–k ties.” Meghan’s bodysuit has been ID’d as a piece from Khaite, but I don’t know the ID on the trousers. The trousers are GOOD. Those pants are maybe my favorite thing she’s worn in the Netherlands? The necklace is Cartier, and the shoes are probably Manolos.

As for the speeches… Meghan introduced Harry, and she almost cried speaking about his service and his work to make the games happen. Harry was super-emotional too. All of this has been such a rollercoaster.
