And whew, when the gates opened for the ‘Pink Palace’ edition, the fashion faithful came dressed to reign.

Plus, Meghan, Duchess of Sussex’s recent red carpet moment included a winning silhouette from fashion brand Greta Constantine and a subtle nod to Princess Diana.
In Honour Meghan, Duchess of Sussex and Prince Harry stepped out in Victoria, British Columbia, on Friday, August 7, for the David Foster Foundation’s 40th Anniversary Celebration. For the occasion, Meghan slipped into Greta Constantine’s Fabrizio gown, keeping the styling deliberately pared back. A simple gold bracelet and her delicate butterfly-shaped diamond-and-sapphire earrings provided the finishing touches — the latter a particularly sentimental choice, having once belonged to her late mother-in-law, Princess Diana. Greta Constantine is an accessible ready-to-wear womenswear luxury line fronted by Jamaican-blooded designer Kirk Pickersgill. IG/@gretaconstantine
