Guys, we have a confession. We can’t stop thinking about Markle’s stunning Giorgio Armani dress from her tell-all interview with Oprah. The black silk gown, which costs a cool $4,700, featured a white lotus flower, which, psst, is known to symbolize enlightenment, rebirth and resilience in the face of difficulty. The duchess also paired the dress with a black belt, adding matching heels to complete the elegant look.

So....how do we copy it? We enlisted the help of Stitch Fix stylist Caitlin Yacopetti, to break down how fans can get a similar look for less.

1. Confetti Print Bishop Sleeve Belted Maxi Dress

“Meghan stunned in the gorgeous black Armani silk dress in her Oprah interview! While not everyone can afford this price tag, I’d tell my clients that this look can be easily replicated by pairing a long-sleeve V-neck black maxi dress with a wide, square buckle black belt to cinch at the waist for a classic, elegant look,” instructs Yacopetti. Good thing this garb that meets Yacopetti’s checklist is now available at SHEIN for just $21. The elegant V-neck dress has three-quarter sleeves and actually comes with a matching belt.
