She paired it with a pair of nude pumps and kept her hair down, foregoing her trademark loose chignon. Meghan Markle chose dress designer Grace Wales Bonner to design the dress for the appearance, [People](https://people.com/royals/meghan-markle-wore-london-based-menswear-designer-grace-wales-bonner-trench-for-baby-sussex-debut/) reports.
