No one has as stronger a hold on our collective purchasing decisions than Meghan Markle. And with her Netflix documentary with Prince Harry just one day away from its release date and plenty of events on the calendar, we're about to enter a period of Markle-inspired spending—guaranteed. Just take her latest look, for example, which she wore to the 2022 Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Ripple of Hope Gala held in New York City.
For the glamorous event, which saw the couple take home an award for their work pertaining to racial justice and mental health with the Archewell Foundation, Markle chose a stark white, long-sleeve dress by Louis Vuitton, which featured a high slit and an off-the-shoulder neckline. Custom made by the brand's womenswear designer Nicolas Ghesquière, it was a clear symbol of hope, the perfect message to send at the evening's occasion. With her dress, she added Princess Diana's aquamarine ring that she wore on her wedding day, Cartier Love bracelets, and a Givenchy clutch.
After seeing the look, one dress immediately came to mind: Reformation's new Maves dress, a similarly off-the-shoulder style with long sleeves and a mini hemline. Equally gorgeous with a much smaller price tag—it rings up to just under $300—the dress is a perfect alt for Markle's custom Louis Vuitton pick. Shop it and more off-the-shoulder options below.
