Duchess Meghan rewore a Roland Mouret dress to promote her V-Day collection

Yesterday, the Duchess of Sussex launched her As Ever “Valentine’s Day collection.” The As Ever team posted some beauty shots of the jam and strawberries, but they also added some new photos of Meghan. Something really funny happened too – within seconds, the Mail had ID’d Meghan’s entire look in the new photo and published the cost of her outfit. Meanwhile, the Princess of Wales had a whole-ass day of events with two different outfits, and it took hours to get the IDs on Kate’s clothing and they barely mentioned the cost of those two outfits, nor did they hysterically tally up the cost of Kate’s jewelry. It’s pretty crazy considering… Kate is “theirs,” she’s the one they’re paying for.

Anyway, Meghan is wearing her “£1,700 Roland Mouret dress she wore while pregnant with Archie” in the IG pic. I actually didn’t remember this dress at all, but she apparently wore it to a Royal Foundation dinner in 2018. There’s another Meghan pic on As Ever’s IG – a sweet one with Harry’s dog Pula. Pula seems to stick close to Meghan because she’s the one closest to the food.

As for the Valentine’s Day collection… at long last, As Ever is selling stand-alone strawberry jam. She “soft-launched” the strawberry late last year, as part of a jam trio gift box (I bought it as a gift for my favorite neighbor). Meghan’s also offering Raspberry jam again, she’s finally got that back in stock just in time for V-Day. The collection dropped mid-day Monday, and I just checked As Ever’s site – everything is still in stock, including the sad-sack orange marmalade. Not every jam flavor is a hit! The raspberry hits like crack though. It looks like the apricot sold out too. My guess is that even with tons of inventory, the strawberry and raspberry jams are going to sell out within days.

    The raspberry and the strawberry are nice but I love the marmalade. It’s my favourite. I bought some for my English mum and she loves it too, she’s not normally a marmalade fan.

    • IdlesAtCranky says:

      Me too! The marmalade is wonderful, I love it.

      I was hoping for more chocolate, for Valentine’s Day, but ah well…

      • Beth says:

        There may be more to come – As ever said ‘first launch’ of the Valentines collection, suggesting more than one.

  2. Hypocrisy says:

    Looks like I’m sending jam instead of chocolates to my kids this Valentine’s Day…

  3. Smices says:

    Chocolate may still be coming. This was labeled the first launch for Valentines Day so hopefully a second V Day launch is still in the works.

  4. ThatGirlThere says:

    I really only bought the apricot because the raspberry was sold out but damn if it isn’t delicious!

    • Debbie says:

      I have it on good authority that the raspberry jam “hits like crack.” (Wow, I’ve never heard that expression before.)

  5. How dare she drop these lovely valentine goodies on Cants big three event day lol!!

  6. Jais says:

    I’m on my last jar of raspberry so this was exciting. I love how Megan is just making jams and girls scout cookie movies and doing her thing. Good for her. And a sweet dress rewear.

  7. Eliza says:

    I wish I could afford all of her products. I want tea, honey, jam and sprinkles. Chocolate too.

  8. CM says:

    The orange Marmalade is DELICIOUS and I’ve never liked it before. I highly recommend!

  9. Shiela Kerr says:

    Purchased the Raspberry trio.

  10. Kittenmom says:

    So happy! I adore the strawberry so I bought the trio. Got a single raspberry too. I’m disappointed that there is no more apricot – I absolutely love that stuff. As for the orange marmalade – I was certain I wouldn’t care for it as citrus isn’t generally my thing. color me shocked – it is absolutely incredible on top of a buttered english muffin. Not ready for more yet, but I definitely would restock in the future.

    • windyriver says:

      I did just the opposite; three raspberry (to restock) and one strawberry, to try. I like the orange marmalade and I’m glad that one at least has stayed in stock, but I’ve always loved apricot and I think that’s my favorite of all of them so far.

    • Jais says:

      All the kids around me love the orange marmalade. Raspberry is my fave but there is a contingent of orange marmalade lovers so justice for the marmalade, lol.

  11. Embee says:

    The reference to a dress she wore while pregnant is funny to me because my mother (who is a reformed Trump voter) got a “news” article that Meghan gave birth to their third son yesterday. I was confuzzled but this may explain it!

  12. Debbie says:

    Yet more proof that Meghan was using her own money to pay for her wardrobe while she was a working royal. You can bet that if Chuck had paid for the Roland Mouret dress she wore to the Kensington Palace event, the Dumb Mail article would have pointed that out and blind sighted the queen (postmortem) by re-wearing it to announce an As ever launch.

  13. Nicole says:

    Okay you have my attention with strawberry. I will take a look.

  14. ChillinginDC says:

    I saw. I think I will wait to get anything. I was an orange marmalade buyer and I didn’t like that one either Kasier.
