What Kate might wear for her upcoming tour of India and Bhutan

Our first bet is on Saloni, a London-based brand whose founder, Saloni Lodha, was born in India. Just days after the royal was officially announced last year, Kate stepped out for The Fostering Awards wearing a $1000 chic blue dress by the fashion house.
The choice implied that Kate was already considering her tour outfits, and we wouldn't be surprised if she recycled the exact dress – it looked stunning on the pretty brunette.

Here are three dresses from Saloni's latest collection that we can totally see Kate rocking. The first and third are silk, while the red number is cotton, so all three are suitable for the hot temperatures in India.

Another Indian designer we're hedging our bets on Kate wearing is Ritu Kumar. The label already has a royal connection close to Kate's heart – when Princess Diana visited Pakistan in 1997, she visited the Shaumat Memorial Hospital wearing a traditional Indian outfit by the designer.

Here are two potential Churidar suits from Ritu Kumar's website – similar to what Diana wore, the outfit would be a great way for Kate to fully embrace traditional Indian fashion.

Known for championing high street brands, we expect Kate to mix up her designer looks.
One of her favourite high street brands is Reiss, and the British label have lots of pretty new collection dresses bound to appeal to the royal. Here are our top three picks – we reckon the block-blue creation is a sure winner.

Kate's two all-time favourite designers are Jenny Packham and Alexander McQueen, the fashion house behind her incredible wedding dress, and she's rarely completed a tour without wearing creations from both.
So our money's on the two British designers making an appearance in Kate's tour wardrobe.
A quick look on Alexander McQueen's website reveals a whole host of dresses perfectly suited to the royal. The long ivory gown would look incredible for one of the evening engagements.

The Duchess of Cambridge, née Kate Middleton, is gearing up for another royal tour which means the world can look forward to some more memorable fashion moments from the mother of two. Kate will soon be packing her suitcase for a very busy six-day excursion with her husband, Prince William. The royal couple will travel to India and Bhutan on April 10 returning to the UK on April 16.
But what will Kate wear? Queen of diplomatic dressing, we all know the Duchess loves to give a nod to her host country with her outfits – for her tour of Southeast Asia in 2012, she wore a dress by Singapore-born designer Prabal Gurung, she sported Canadian designer Erdem's creations during her trip to Canada in 2011 and Kate sported a black dress embroidered with silver ferns, the emblem of New Zealand, for her tour of the country in 2014.
Here, we share our predictions on what royal watchers might see Kate step out in.
