Meghan Markle turned heads on the first day of her Colombian tour with her husband, Prince Harry, in a colorful print dress.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle spent the first day of their Colombia trip with Vice President Francia Marquez and had full security detail.

Meghan looked gorgeous alongside Harry as they watched folk dancers perform on the first day of their Colombian tour.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have just arrived in Colombia for a four-day visit at the invite of Vice President Francia Marquez.

On their first day, the royal couple was treated to a vibrant tribal dance at the Delia Zapata National Centre for the Arts. Photos showed Meghan talking with Marquez and pointing at some costumes in the center. She was also seen shaking hands with the dancers after the performance.

For their visit to the center, Meghan looked elegant in a colorful maxi dress by Johanna Ortiz, who is of Colombian heritage. According to the Daily Mail, the dress is billed as a $2,150 burgundy Navajo Weaver Metallic Tweed Maxi Dress. It features a thigh-high slit and a stylish cut-out in the middle.

Meghan styled her hair into loose waves to complement the outfit and wore her usual Lorraine Schwartz' Against Evil Eye' bracelet. The former "Suits" star also appeared to add her favored $12,800 Cartier 'juste un clou' necklace.

Earlier during the day, Meghan flaunted her style by wearing a different outfit. The Duchess of Sussex wore a £596 [$766] collared vest from New York-based brand Veronica Beard. She also wore the matching navy, ankle-grazing trousers, priced at £349.33 [$449].

The trouser set looked incredible on the Duchess, with the waist cinched to highlight her slender figure.

Meghan completed the look with black Manolo Blahnik high heels and a cream $4,700 handbag from Italian designer Loro Piana.

The former actress accessorized with the same Lorraine Schwartz bracelet, which reportedly costs about $18k. She completed the elegant outfit with a $4,700 calfskin handbag created by Italian brand Loro Piana.

On the social media platform X, royal fans were full of praise for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, with many noting how beautiful Meghan looked in her outfits.

One person wrote, "I actually can't stomach how gorgeous this woman is sometimes, like I gasp."

Another royal fan asked, "How much of the hate thrown at MeghanMarkle is just because she is really pretty?"

A third person noted, "They hate this woman not only cause she's confident, beautiful, intelligent, eloquent and successful in her own right but is glowing, happy & happily married to [Harry] outside their toxicity, and they hate it, they want her to be miserable like them and hide away in fear but she doesn't."

Harry and Meghan were invited to Colombia by Vice President Francia Marquez, who welcomed them with her husband, Rafael Yerney Pinillo.

The couple spent over 30 minutes at Marquez's residence, where they exchanged welcome gifts and were offered traditional pandebono, which is Colombian cheese bread.

Marquez is providing Harry and Meghan with full security protection throughout their visit, which some have branded a "quasi-royal" tour but is actually a "cultural and social" visit.

The duo will travel to the cities of Bogota, Cartagena, and Cali, where they will visit the first 'free town' for Africans and attend a music festival.

Harry and Meghan plan to participate in various local performances to experience and celebrate Colombian music, theatre, and dance.

Their official engagements also include Harry's meeting with Team Colombia of the Invictus Games and Meghan's sit-down with some of the leading female entrepreneurs in the country.

Marquez revealed that she invited Harry and Meghan to Colombia after watching their Netflix documentary "Harry & Meghan," which greatly "moved" her.

According to the Daily Mail, she made the statements during a media brief and revealed that Meghan was actually asked to visit last year, but it got delayed due to the duchess' busy schedule.

She said, "Last year, we held a meeting on July 25, the day of Afro-descendant women. We wanted to invite Meghan, an Afro-descendant woman, to that meeting so she could share her experiences. We sent her a letter inviting her, and she replied saying that she couldn't come, but that she really wanted to get to know the country. Since then, we have been working for a year for this visit."
