If you were wondering how long it would be before the Duchess of Cambridge stepped out in a showstopping evening gown during the royal tour of Pakistan [1], the answer is less than 24 hours. After landing in the country yesterday, she and Prince William spent the day taking part in royal engagements that required a slightly more relaxed wardrobe [2]. But as the royal couple arrived by rickshaw to the National Monument in Islamabad for a glamorous evening reception, they did so in style, dressed in complementary dark green outfits that will go down in royal fashion history.
They royal couple's his-and-hers looks were perfectly chosen for the occasion, reflecting the principal colour of the flag of Pakistan. Kate chose a heavily embellished emerald green beaded and sequinned gown by Jenny Packham, while William eschewed his usual tuxedo for a teal sherwani. It's not often we're as intrigued by the prince's fashion choice as we are by his wife's, but tonight, they were the perfect pair.
