Meghan, 41, was recognized as one of this year's honorees for her global advocacy to empower and advocate for women and girls.

The former actress wore a strapless $2,623 Johanna Ortiz dress in a metallic gold hue to celebrate the occasion. The statement-making style featured a tiny diamond-shaped keyhole and a sexy front slit.

Wearing her hair to one side, Meghan completed the award-worthy look with a pair of $1,690 strappy gold Tom Ford heels, a yellow Carolina Herrera clutch, Princess Diana's heirloom diamond bracelet, and a yellow gold Cartier Love bracelet.
