Duchess of Cambridge

Prince William and his wife, the Duchess of Cambridge, have just

completed a five day tour of India and Bhutan.  Duchess Kate wore at least 

three outfits per day, designed by British, Anglo-Indian, Indian-American, 

and American designers.  If you missed them, here are some.

The arrival in Bhutan was simple.

They posed in front of the Taj Mahal, with Kate wearing a dress with an

Indian motif, designed by an Anglo-Indian designer.

William and Kate visited a number of locations with children,

and Kate wore a simple, comfortable dress by an Indian designer. 

For a gala evening with stars of Indian cinema invited,

Kate wore this blue dress by English designer Jenny Packham.

The beading was done by dressmakers in India.

Another day they visited slum children in New Delhi and sat

cross-legged on the floor with them.  This long dress allowed her

to be comfortable, yet covered.

Five of the Duchess' dresses.

Close-ups show the beautiful detail on the dresses.

The Duchess often wears these nude-colored heels.

A beautifully patterned dress for a formal dinner.

William and Kate laid a wreath in honor of the victims of the

terrorist bombing in Mumbai.

On several occasions, Kate joined children in sporing activities.

Here she is about to play soccer in high wedgies.

In Bhutan, Kate wore a dress inspired by native Bhutanese

dresses.  She participated in an archery event.

The King and Queen of Bhutan (who recently became parents for the first time)

seemed to enjoy their visit with William and Katherine.

For a formal dinner at the British Embassy in

New Delhi, Kate chose this bright red dress.

For an evening of native dancing, Kate chose this green gauze dress.

For a private dinner with the King and Queen of Bhutan, Kate chose a dress

by American designer,  Tory Burch.  Those are all hand embroidered flowers

covering the dress.

I think she looked great every place she went.
