The duchess could be seen occasionally flicking the cape off her hand as she walked through Westminster Abbey with the Duke of Sussex to her seat.

Followers of Meghan’s fashion @MeghansMirror said the dress was bespoke Emilia Wickstead, and that the duchess was carrying an emerald green Gabriela Hearst handbag and wearing Birks Snowstorm earrings.

The blogger described her as “a vision in green”, while Meghansfashion.com hailed her as “glamorous”.

Meghan continued her trend of wearing block colours.

She has already worn red, white and a shade of blue – the colours of the union flag, but also those of the US star and stripes flag – on her final round of official engagements.

For her carefully choreographed farewell tour, she chose a fitted turquoise blue T-shirt dress by Victoria Beckham to the Endeavour Fund Awards, and a red Safiyaa dress and cape at a military music festival, and a white organza Topshop blouse and Roland Mouret’s Moka skirt for a private visit to the National Theatre.

She also opted for a cream jacket, white top and black trousers for a visit to a school in Dagenham, London.
