Several claimed the cut simply didn’t flatter her. “This style of dress doesn’t suit her body type. She needs to wear a dress with sleeves. She is very wide in her shoulder area,” one comment read. Another added: “The dress doesn’t even fit her well. It’s wrinkled. The area near her breasts is too big.”

Some went further still, calling the look aging. “I don’t like this type of dress. Besides making the person look older, the dress doesn’t suit their body,” another critic argued.
Comparisons to Melania Trump
The fashion debate even spilled into royal-adjacent comparisons. One user contrasted Meghan with former First Lady Melania Trump, writing: “Meghan’s dress was ill fitting [sic] and wrinkled. Melania looked impeccably beautiful, as always.”
The comment referenced Melania’s appearance at a UK state banquet, where she wore a striking Carolina Herrera gown — floor-length, yellow, with long sleeves and a pale pink belt — during her Windsor Castle visit with then-President Donald Trump at a dinner hosted by King Charles III.
