Khadija Shah receives a signed ‘Thank you note’ from Kate Middleton

The Royals tour of Pakistan was definitely one of the highlights of the year and the Princess’ wardrobe was the cherry on top. Duchess Kate stole the show with a number of traditional dresses from local designers including Maheen Khan, Gul Ahmed and Khadija Shah.

• Gul Ahmed
• Maheen Khan
• Élan

And it appears that the Duchess was very pleased with her wardrobe because Khadija of Élan got a signed thank you note from Kate herself.

Khadija shared a picture of the letter on Twitter and expressed her happiness over receiving it.

Along with appreciating the designer for her work, the letter also said: “Pakistan really is a wonderful country, which we both thoroughly enjoyed visiting and hope to return one day soon.”

Kate had worn a cream and black embroidered outfit by the designer label as she boarded a plane back to Islamabad after an unexpected storm had disrupted their schedule and forced the royal couple to spend the night in Lahore.

Kate wore the same outfit to a private visit the royal couple undertook to the SOS Village in Lahore.
