Kate Middleton and Prince William's first day in India was a whirlwind of engagements, requiring no less than three outfits for the duchess. After kicking off her day in a paisley-print Alexander McQueen dress [1], she changed into an Anita Dongre tunic-inspired piece [2] for the afternoon. And her nighttime look was particularly stunning.

Dressed in a bright blue gown from one of her favorite designers [3], Jenny Packham, Kate was by Will's side to attend a Bollywood-inspired charity gala at the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel in Mumbai. The dress and matching cape were beaded in India to honor their local fashion industry. Kate's finishing touches were a pair of earrings from Amrapali and a navy clutch.
