Meghan Markle hadn’t put a foot wrong style-wise her entire royal tour up until the last day – and as far as we are concerned, she still hasn’t.
But maybe her stylist is questioning their choice of skirt for Thursday’s trip to Rotorua just a tad.
Because well, in the sun it turned a lil’ bit see-through.
The calf-length, blue and black striped skirt was gorgeous and matched the Duchess of Sussex's I'm-not-even-trying-to-look-this-sophisticated look perfectly.
It just had the unfortunate quality of being a little too thin for New Zealand's harsh sunlight as she spoke to people in the crowd that had gathered to meet her and Prince Harry.
Although to be honest, it's probably only those at home looking at the photographs who noticed that you could briefly see the 37-year-old's navy underwear.
Either way, she rocked the wardrobe mishap like the total boss that she is.
Yesterday concluded the royal couple's mammoth 16-day tour of Australia, Fiji, Tonga and New Zealand.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex as flying back to London today and what a way to end their royal tour.

Look, I'm just here to see what cape Harry is wearing.
Capes are so under-rated these days.
Last...last day of the tour?
Oh...that's...well, we'll miss them, won't we?
(Slightly muffled, but generally ill-concealed jubilation)
Don’t get too excited, there will still be endless articles about every single item of clothing she wears, and more ‘loving tributes’ to Diana. Also, the alleged ‘wardrobe malfunction’ was apparently caused by the heavy fabric ‘strobing’ on camera. Surprised Mamamia got that one wrong, their usual source - the Daily Mail - were all over it!
Sob.
I genuinely never realised aussie women were so crazy interested in the royals. My Nan used to get a bit excited by the prospect of some of them coming for a visit, but I don't remember any of the other women in the family or girls I went to school with at the time being all that excited.
Like, did I miss a royal revival or something? Or is a follow on of that whole "Cool Britannia" deal?
It plays into the fantasies that fairy tales feed girls from an early age. Some day, a prince will come and lift you up out of your unsatisfactory life. Unfeminist AF, because in none of these fairy tales are the women instrumental in securing their destiny. The witches/stepmothers are actually the better role models in the area of self-determination.
Elevated interest: It's the antipodean tour of Harry and Meghan.
Selfishly, I have very little interest in Harry and Meghan and dislike having to wade through all the leading posts regarding them.
I think that the editors are trying to up the feelgood factor while staying topical with the tour, but really leaves me pretty bored.
But, we're not core audience, so I just grizzle and snipe a little and otherwise, grin and bear it.
