Prince Harry's wife swapped out her usual go-to fitted styles for something bolder
Meghan Markle stepped out for a low-key public outing last week in a look that followers of the royal didn't see coming.
The Duchess of Sussex, 42, was spotted alongside her husband Prince Harry, 39, looking radiant in the most unexpected black cape by Carolina Herrera. The piece featured sleeves that cut off at the elbow and a round neck, as well as a tiered detail across the chest.

The Duchess styled her raven locks in loose waves, while her makeup look was glowing and featured a rosy pink cheek and matching lip colour. Completing her makeup was a pair of fluttery false lashes.
View post on InstagramPrince Harry stood next to his wife to host a viewing of The Kinsey Collection showcasing African American Arts and History at the SoFi Stadium in California. The Kinsey African American Art and History Collection and Foundation is an institution dedicated to the research, interpretation, and presentation of the African American experience.
The outing came shortly before the eyes of the world turned to Meghan's sister-in-law Princess Kate as she announced via a video message on Friday evening that she had been diagnosed with cancer. According to a new report in The Sunday Times, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were not informed of the Princess of Wales' diagnosis before the public.
Prince Harry and Meghan later said in a statement: "We wish health and healing for Kate and the family, and hope they are able to do so privately and in peace."
Before Meghan and Harry's outing last Thursday, Meghan showed off her sartorial prowess while out for dinner in Texas, though her chosen outfit was a far cry from her regal cape. The Duchess wowed in a fitted double denim look with a chic blazer from Heidi Merrick and the 'Goatskin and Grosgrain Slingbacks' from Chanel.
