Meghan Markle has stunned guests during her solo in Los Angeles as she attended the annual Fifteen Percent Pledge Fundraising Gala.<\/p>\n

The Duchess of Sussex donned a pink strapless dress with a long black train, accessorised with her drop earrings.<\/p>\n

Meghan appeared calm as she walked along the red carpet, posing for the cameras in her high heels.<\/p>\n

Her custom gown was designed by New York-based luxury womenswear brand, Charles Harbison of Harbison Studio.<\/p>\n

The gala honours Beyonce’s mother, Ms Tina Knowles, known for her commitment to supporting black communities.<\/p>\n

The Fifteen Percent Pledge is a reference to the “black people who make up 15 per cent of the US population”.<\/p>\n

It was founded by Canadian creative director Aurora James and helps to support businesses.<\/p>\n

Royal fans took to social media praising the duchess’s style.<\/p>\n

One user wrote: “Perfection. Meghan has done it again,” while another said: “Perfect timeless gown.”<\/p>\n

Others noted the significance of an A-lister like herself supporting black-owned businesses and designers.<\/p>\n

One social media said: “I’m so happy to see her there, this is a cause that brings Black women together. The organisation does such great work.”<\/p>\n

The duchess has been having her own business success with her As Ever brand, releasing a series of chocolate bars<\/a> as part of her Valentine’s Day collection.<\/p>\n

The range features botanical-print packaging and includes ingredients such as bee pollen, hemp hearts, and edible flower sprinkles.<\/p>\n

The collection featuring all four flavours has already sold out, less than 24 hours after they were released.<\/p>\n

Bundles of the product are still available; at the time of writing, however, the only way to get all four bars will set fans back \u00a3134, but that does include two jams and a candle as well.<\/p>\n

Meghan did leave Netflix staff a selection of As Ever gifts at their Hollywood office, GB News understands.<\/p>\n

As Ever sales inventory was long ago moved to another warehouse and is not housed at Netflix.<\/p>\n

However, products that have been left at Netflix are limited to gifting, sampling or promotional items.<\/p>\n

Netflix employees were able to sample leftover products that might be close to expiration in order to clear space at the headquarters, which is a common practice at PR agencies and communication departments of consumer brands.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Meghan Markle has stunned guests during her solo in Los Angeles as she attended the annual Fifteen Percent…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":274424,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[430,156,4866,111,139,69,9855],"class_list":{"0":"post-274423","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-celebrities","8":"tag-celebrities","9":"tag-entertainment","10":"tag-meghan-markle","11":"tag-new-zealand","12":"tag-newzealand","13":"tag-nz","14":"tag-royal"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/274423","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=274423"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/274423\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/274424"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=274423"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=274423"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=274423"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
