Meghan Markle looks like a Bond girl in thigh-split dress at Kris Jenner’s 70th birthday

The Duchess of Sussex is no stranger to a suave evening do, but she went full party girl on 8 November when she stepped out alongside the Duke of Sussex at an A-list party. Meghan Markle, 44, was spotted on her way into the $165 million mansion of Amazon founder billionaire Jeff Bezos in Beverly Hills as he played host to Kris Jenner’s 70th birthday party. Former Suits actress Meghan looked endlessly chic in a slinky black dress.

Her evening gown featured a figure-skimming cut, as well as a high neckline, long sleeves, and a thigh-split skirt. The glamorous maxi dress was paired with peep-toe heels with a trendy bow adorning them and a matching olive green velvet clutch bag. Meanwhile, her glossy raven locks were slicked back into a chic low bun to reveal a pair of statement earrings.
