The newly made Duchess of Sussex attended the Royal Ascot horse races in Berkshire in a charming white dress that made a splash.

At the royal races, there is one of the most stringent dress codes. Ladies from the royal family can not wear dresses that expose their shoulders. The length of the skirt should be below the knees. In addition, a required attribute is a hat.

For her debut at the races, Meghan Markle again preferred the Givenchy French fashion house and chose an elegant silk shirt-dress embroidered with lace.

Most likely, Megan's choice was not random. The risky venture of Cristobal Balenciaga back in the 50s turned a shirt dress into a trendy little thing. And to this day, this model remains incredibly popular. With each new fashion season, a dress-shirt appears before us in new design interpretations.

Dress details

Length - midi, which fully meets the requirements of the dress code.

Finishing - lace motifs, symmetrically sewn on the shelf of the dress.
