Striped dresses are so flattering

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are enjoying some quality time together. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex enjoyed a dinner date last Wednesday ahead of Markle’s birthday (she turned 42 on August 4), and they were certainly dressed for a romantic evening.

The Duchess tapped one of her go-to patterns for the celebration: stripes. Markle looked as elegant as ever in a strapless bodycon maxi dress with thick horizontal stripes, while Prince Harry wore a blue button-down and trousers.

This isn’t the first time Markle has worn stripes. It’s one of the styles she has repeated over the years — the Duchess wore striped pants to daughter Lilibet’s first birthday celebration, and last summer, she wore a striped button-down blouse while supporting her husband at the Harry East Memorial Tournament.

Whether you’re wearing them in a shirt, dress, or pants form, stripes are a flattering choice that works to elongate your figure, and we found so many different striped dresses starting at just $30. Read on for more striped dresses.

Markle isn’t the only celebrity to wear strapless dresses recently — Reese Witherspoon also chose the style when she walked the green carpet with her daughter Ava Phillippe at Oceana’s annual Sea Change summer party. And this striped strapless dress by Edikted looks so similar to the Duchess’ recent dinner look.

Featuring a strapless silhouette, the dress allows your arms and chest to breathe, which makes being out in the heat more bearable, and the back has a slit that allows more space for you to move about. It comes in a polyester and rayon knit fabric that’s breathable and stretchy, and one five-star reviewer called it a “must-have dress for summer.”
