Despite Meghan re-securing the top button, some Twitter users accused the not-so-royal moment of being “deliberate.”
“Meghan stole the show with her deliberate wardrobe malfunction,” said one.
Beaumont Etiquette founder and expert in all things proper, Myka Meier, tells PEOPLE that wardrobe malfunctions don’t qualify as breaking royal protocol — they’re simply accidents.
She adds, “A blatant disregard of a rule which was set in order to show respect would when you would consider a break in royal protocol, which the Duchess of Sussex did not do.”
