The Royal's outfits for her visit in the country have a distinct Indian touch with her red McQueen dress featuring paisley themed print, while the tunic that she wore at a charity event at The Oval Maidan in Mumbai, had Mughal details.
Kate teamed her tunic with nude wedges while keeping the rest of the look simple and summery. Prince William opted for a crisp white shirt with sleeves rolled up paired with blue trousers and suede shoes.
Later, the Royals took a small tour of Mumbai in an open bus with children from local charity Apnalya who works with children in Mumbai’s slums.
