Meghan Markle has issued an update as the Duchess of Sussex’s dress sparked a fan frenzy.

The Duchess of Sussex’s team confirmed that Meghan, 42, wore a dress designed by Oscar de la Renta at the ESPY Awards on Thursday evening.

People Magazine, which has a strong relationship with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, originally reported the dress to be a custom Oscar de la Renta design.

However, representatives from the brand Staud appeared to claim the dress was their creation.

Sussex fans flooded to social media, conflicted by the mixed reporting.

One said: “I still think it’s the Staud dress perhaps customised for her because to me the design is the same.”

However, another Sussex fan added: “The Staud dress doesn’t have the same halter or train as Meghan’s dress.”

One confused social media user posted: “Another magazine said it’s custom Oscar de la Renta.

“Now they are saying it’s Staud. Which designer made this dress I beg?”

The account “What Meghan Wore” has now confirmed the Duchess of Sussex wore an Oscar de la Renta dress, thus ending any confusion.

They posted on social media: “It has been reconfirmed by Meghan’s team that the dress is @OscardelaRenta as reported.”

The duchess’s ESPY look was reminiscent of her Stella McCartney wedding reception gown from 2018.

It was seen by many Sussex fans as a sweet nod to the couple’s joyous wedding day.

To accessorise, Meghan wore a £2,658 diamond loop ring. The mother-of-two first wore the accessory in 2022 for the Invictus Games in The Hague.

Meghan additionally wore her Lorraine Schwartz emerald diamond stud earrings, first seen at Trooping the Colour and the Lion King premiere, both in 2019.

Finally, she donned her Cartier “Love” bracelet, while her husband Prince Harry chose an Armani suit for the evening.
