The Duchess of Sussex once again wowed crowds as she arrived at Central Hall Westminster for a charity gala music evening with her husband Prince Harry on Thursday evening. Dressed in blue, the Duchess smiled and waved at onlookers as the couple entered the venue together. It was the newlyweds' second outing of the week, having attended the WellChild Awards on Tuesday, to which Meghan wore a stunning black Altuzarra trouser suit. The Duchess chose an elegant blue dress by Jason Wu, coordinating Aquazurra shoes and a Dior clutch bag for Thursday's gala, with her husband looking equally smart in a suit.
