Meghan Markle is serving nonstop inspiration for festive party dressing this season.

While promoting her As Ever Christmas special and accompanying collection, the Duchess has showcased a series of standout looks – from a chic khaki co-ord to a dazzling emerald gown, and now a stunning burgundy slip dress. 

Her latest look, a pure silk design from Heidi Merrick, features a plunging V-neckline and elegant tie-shoulder detailing, offering a modern twist on a classic evening silhouette. 

The rich plum hue is universally flattering, making it a standout choice for winter events, especially when teamed with metallic gold accessories. 

Unsurprisingly, the dress has completely sold out since Meghan’s appearance, and is now only available in ivory and black. But there’s no need to panic.

We’ve tracked down the best alternatives, including an impeccable option from John Lewis. This silk chemise offers a similarly luxurious feel, with a flattering V-neck and softly skimming fit – all at half the price. 

You’ll also find gorgeous burgundy slip dresses from M&S, Nobody’s Child and Reformation.

Available in ivory and black
