Meghan Markle paid a touching tribute to the ANZACs on Saturday morning when she arrived at Sydney's Hyde Park in a New Zealand designer's dress.
On the fifth day of their marathon tour of Australia, Meghan and Prince Harry laid a floral wreath at the foot of the revamped war memorial in Sydney's Hyde Park.
Harry wore a full military uniform to the morning's proceedings, while Meghan, in perhaps a nod to the alliance between Australia and New Zealand, wore a $2,927AU black frock by New Zealand designer Emilia Wickstead.
She also wore a pillbox style hat by London milliner Philip Treacy and paired it with a matching clutch bag.

Meghan isn't the first royal to wear an Emilia Wickstead piece. Kate Middleton dressed in a lilac wool-crepe frock to the Global Mental Health Summit less than a fortnight ago.
But the Duchess of Sussex has a complicated relationship with the designer.
Following her wedding in May, Wickstead told the Daily Mail the designer Givenchy gown she walked down the aisle in was a rip-off of one of her designs.

'Her dress is identical to one of our dresses,' she said.
'Apparently a lot of commentators were saying, 'It's an Emilia Wickstead dress'.'
The designer also went on to criticise the fit of the gown and her hair styling for the big day.
Despite this, Meghan wore one of Wickstead's designs in July, a sleeveless, mid-length, black dress.
Wickstead, a New Zealand national, is based in London and is frequently worn by the Duchess of Cambridge.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex arrived at the park with NSW Governor David Hurley, a former chief of the defence force and were welcomed by the Australian Army marching band.
Wearing her hair half up in loose waves and going for a natural makeup look with a hint of blush, Meghan laid a wreath at the steps of the renovated war memorial with her husband under an overcast Sydney sky.
She stood faithfully by Harry's side as he saluted the cite and bowed for a minute's silence in tribute of fallen soldiers.
The war memorial, a monument close to Harry's heart, is being unveiled after receiving a $40million spruce up.
After the opening ceremony, the parents-to-be toured the memorial and the new education facilities inside with Prime Minister Scott Morrison and New South Wales Premier Gladys Berejiklian.
Prince Henry, Duke of Gloucester, opened the memorial in 1934 and now Prince Henry, Duke of Sussex, has opened the new wings.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
