Meghan Markle is pretty in pink.

The Duchess of Sussex looked radiant in a metallic jacquard dress by Colombian designer Johanna Ortiz ($2,150) for a visit to the National Centre for the Arts in Bogotá, Colombia, as she and Prince Harry continued their tour of the country on Thursday.

The “Suits” alum, 43, paired the chic patterned maxi — which featured a sweetheart neckline and a keyhole cutout — with brown Jimmy Choo sandals.

While Markle styled the convertible dress with two straps, it can also be worn strapless, with one-shoulder or with a ruffled shoulder bolero.

The royal wore her down hair in soft curls and accessorized with a Cartier necklace and other gold jewelry as she and her husband enjoyed an afternoon of cultural performances.

Harry, 39, had a relaxed summertime vibe for the outing in a beige blazer and trousers with a blue shirt.

The couple was joined by Colombian Vice President Francia Márquez and her partner, Rafael Yerney Pinillo, as well as Xiomara Suescun, the director of the National Centre for the Arts.
