Meghan Markle is getting down to business.

The Duchess of Sussex, 41, and Prince Harry, 37, kicked off a busy week of appearances yesterday at the One Young World Summit in Manchester — and the duchess made a statement with her meaningful fashion choices.

Wearing a red tie-neck blouse ($540) and matching trousers ($590) by sustainable brand Another Tomorrow, Markle took the stage for her first speech in the UK since stepping down as a senior member of the royal family.

According to the label’s website, it carries out “a value system based on three pillars – human, animal, and environmental welfare,” and the Duchess of Sussex’s pieces were crafted from sustainable viscose and ethically sourced merino wool.

The duchess — who is known for sending a message with her style — added red Aquazzura heels and jewelry from female-founded brands that also focus on ethical practices.

She wore one of her go-to rings of late, the Shiffon “Duet” pinky ring ($300-$855), which gives back to female entrepreneurs and is designed to represent women supporting one another through a “pinky promise.”

The mom of two also chose new pieces from ethical brand Tabayer, wearing the designer’s chunky “Oera” 18k gold earrings ($3,300) and matching ring ($3,800).

According to the brand, the jewels were designed to represent the ancient Mesopotamian goddess Inanna and her knot, which is considered a symbol of protection and divine feminism.

Speaking at the event, which brought together young leaders from more than 190 countries, Markle encouraged attendees to use their voices to make a difference.

“We often hear people say ‘The time is now,’ but I’m going to double down on that, by saying your time is now,” she told the audience, adding, “The important work can’t wait for tomorrow, and this week the world is watching as you cement your place in history by showcasing the good that you are doing today.”

Today, the Sussexes departed for Germany to attend the Invictus Games “Dusseldorf 2023 – One Year to Go” event, with the duchess sporting a sleeveless white sweater by Anine Bing ($229) and tan belted, wide-legged Brandon Maxwell trousers ($1,295).

Sources have said the couple won’t be paying any visits to the royal family this week, despite staying at their Frogmore Cottage home, which is in walking distance of the Cambridges’ new base in Windsor.

Even if there won’t be any royal meetups to look forward to, there’s more Meghan fashion ahead as the Sussexes attend the annual Well Child Awards in London Thursday night.
