MEGHAN Markle looked chic in grey Roland Mouret for the second day of her royal visit to Dublin today - but fans were more concerned about her choice of bra.

Given that the Duchess of Sussex was wearing her favourite boat neckline dress, you'd think she'd have the undies nailed by now.

But royal fans tweeted that she "needs some support in the innerwear department", while others called her choice of bra a "fashion fail".

Model Tameka Jacobs, 38, previously claimed Meghan stuffed her bra while appearing on Deal Or No Deal in 2006.

Speaking to the Toronto Sun, she claimed all the models, including the future royal, used the trick - and would "crack up" about how much foam was inside their bras.

She added: “Meghan’s aspirations were to win an Oscar or be on Broadway, so if you’re in a mini dress, high heels, with your boobs taped together and pushed up when what you want to do is serious acting, then it’s tough.”

Meghan previously donned a Roland Mouret dress costing £1,350, which was very similar to today's style, on the night before her wedding to Prince Harry.

Back in May, she was pictured arriving at Cliveden House with her mother Doria Ragland - in a blue dress cut in the same style.

Like today's outfit, the stunning fit-and-flare wool-crepe frock had a waterfall hem detailing - although it was a short sleeved style.

We haven't spotted a grey version of the frock on the open market yet, but it's still available in blue and red - although we're afraid it doesn't come cheap.

If you're desperate to steal her style but on a budget, we've shopped around to find some high street alternatives that feel smart but adaptable, just like the real deal.

Bucking royal tradition, which sees royal's with delicate clutch bags, Meghan accessorised her outfit with a black Fendi tote costing £2,890 today.

The Peekaboo Essential bag comes in a range of colours - including beige, grey and navy.

Meghan accessorised with a pair of Birks Snowflake diamond and white gold earrings - which cost a huge £9,000.

While she continued to move away from her signature 'messy bun' with a slicker hairstyle - so is Meghan growing out her tendrils for good?

Meghan made another ‘faux pas’ after crossing her legs again yesterday… metres away from Kate’s perfect ‘Duchess’ slant.

While here's why her LBD is such a ‘shocking’ choice (because the designer slammed her wedding dress as a rip off).

And the royal trip is a far-cry from her wild holiday to Dublin back in 2013.
