Surprise! Meghan Markle, Prince Harry, and Markle’s mother Doria Ragland all made an appearance in New York City on Tuesday night, where Markle accepted a Woman of Vision Award from the Ms. Foundation for Women.
It’s been a minute since the Duchess of Sussex hit the red carpet, though, from the looks of her perfectly put together gilded ensemble, you’d think she used to walk red carpets for a living. The 41-year-old wore a gold strapless Johanna Ortiz dress with a diamond-shaped cut-out under the bust and a center slit at the skirt.

She kept it simple with the accessories, opting for minimalist Tom Ford heels and two subtle bracelets, and wore her hair down and parted to the side in classy waves.
Prince Harry and Ragland let Meghan do the shining, each opting for more subdued ensembles. Harry wore a baby blue skinny tie for a pop of color against his black suit, while Ragland went for a black dress with sheer long sleeves and matching pointed-toe pumps.
Markle was presented with the Woman of Vision Award by co-founding Mother of the Ms. Foundation (and longtime Meghan bestie) Gloria Steinem, who also posed with the duchess on the red carpet.
In her acceptance speech, Meghan Markle spoke about reading Ms. Magazine in her youth.
“As a young girl, I would come home, I’d settle in after a day of school, pull up my TV tray with dinner and I would turn on my evening ritual: Jeopardy! And I’d glance at the coffee table, where I’d see an array of things: it could be the cat’s collar, my homework, some mail that had just been brought in—and some magazines. The magazines said Ms. on them,” she told the crowd.
