Meghan Markle's White Dress Features a Trend That Isn't Going Anywhere

The world is anxiously awaiting the reveal of her wedding dress next month, but in the meantime, Meghan Markle just stepped out in a white dress that's perfect for daytime spring and summer occasions that are a little more low-key than a royal wedding. After months of cold weather in the UK, we've gotten used to seeing Markle bundled up in sweaters, trousers, and coats, but since spring is in full swing, we're finally getting a glimpse of the future royal's warm-weather style.

The dress that Markle stepped out in today for a reception with Prince Harry is by Altuzarra, and she accessorized it with a crossbody bag, pumps, and a blazer draped over her shoulders. The pinstriped and belted dress features a trend that we think is classic enough to ensure that it'll be around for awhile: big buttons. (For context, this detail is currently adorning tons of tops, dresses, outerwear, skirts, and even swimwear on the market, but it was Khaite that really set the trend in motion.) We love that Markle certainly isn't a slave to trends, but she does seem to want to embrace ones that are more subtle and timeless than, say, the vinyl and PVC trend.
