Wearing a cherry-red dress as she stepped out of the plane at the Nuku’alofa airport, the Duchess of Sussex looked chipper while waving to the assembled welcoming crowd. But sharp-eyed fans noticed one tiny fashion faux pas in her otherwise tasteful dress-and-heels ensemble: a merchandise tag still hanging from the hem of her Self Portrait dress. In the midst of her stacked travel schedule, which involves numerous outfit changes daily in between events like [delivering speeches](http://time.com/5433080/meghan-markle-tour-speech/ "undefined") on the importance of education for girls and [visiting local markets](http://time.com/5432847/meghan-markle-fiji-security/ "undefined"), Markle can be forgiven for forgetting to clip the tag. After all, as one of the most-watched women in the world, she’s constantly having to pull out brand-new looks for each event while on the road. We can only imagine the complexity of her luggage situation. And who among us hasn’t forgotten to remove a tag before heading out the door, even without the pressure of being a royal fashion icon? Markle later changed into a white gown for a state dinner with the the King and Queen of Tonga — and for that ensemble, no errant tags were spotted lingering anywhere on her outfit. > [](https://twitter.com/sophie%5Fwalsh9/status/1055309032695549952) > [](https://twitter.com/KensingtonRoyal/status/1055293390252838912) > [](https://twitter.com/KensingtonRoyal/status/1055381486780657665) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5434706/meghan-markle-tag/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5434706/meghan-markle-tag/"},"headline":"Meghan Markle Had a Very Relatable Fashion Moment","datePublished":"2018-10-25T15:03:05.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:55:39.384Z","description":"Always check for tags","url":"https://time.com/5434706/meghan-markle-tag/","keywords":["Newsfeed","royals","meghan markle"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt1d099190dff9dc29/69893d73096a9411c46a3c44/markle-harry-tonga.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Raisa Bruner","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/raisa-bruner/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt1d099190dff9dc29/69893d73096a9411c46a3c44/markle-harry-tonga.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"The Duke And Duchess Of Sussex Visit Tonga - Day 1","caption":"The Duke And Duchess Of Sussex Visit Tonga - Day 1","creditText":"Pool/Samir Hussein—WireImage","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/5434706/meghan-markle-tag/","name":"Meghan Markle Had a Very Relatable Fashion Moment"}}]}] ```
