The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have spent their first full day in Pakistan as the royal tour got under way.

Earlier, they visited a government-run school in Pakistan’s capital.

William and Kate toured the school in Islamabad, which educates young people between the ages of four and 18.

William and Kate then attended a reception hosted by the British High Commissioner to Pakistan Thomas Drew CMG at the National Monument in Islamabad.

Kate stepped out in a stunning emerald green gown by Jenny Packham – but her husband also turned heads with his sartorial style.

The duke wore a traditional sherwani coat by Karachi-based designer Naushemian, rather than regular black tie.
