Think of the British aristocracy and you probably think of horses. It seems that you cannot be a member of the royal family if you haven't been born right there in he saddle. However, not many people think of riding as the setting for some of the great British fashion moments. Riders tend to dress in drab-looking outfits when they're out on horseback. With the range of Zara Phillips clothing, however, it's possible to look stylish without having to compromise on the comfort you need in the saddle.
Zara Phillips is the eldest granddaughter of Queen Elizabeth of Britain. Her mother is the Princess Royal, Princess Anne, the Queen's only daughter. Her father is Captain Mark Phillips and because he never had a title in his own right, neither does she or her brother, Peter. The children's parents tried to give them a normal upbringing and while they are down to earth, their lives have never been normal. After all, normality is impossible if the person who gave you your name is your uncle, Prince Charles, and your grandparents live in Buckingham Palace.
Growing up, the young royal excelled both academically and in sports. At times her rebellious streak and tomboy nature landed her in hot water but she has since turned into a beautiful, accomplished young woman. Not only is she a physiotherapist but she's also married to Mike Tindall, a popular English rugby player, and they're expecting their first child.
Both Princess Anne and Captain Mark Phillips were champion riders. In fact, Princess Anne was the first member of the royal family to represent her country at the Olympic Games, in Montreal in 1976. It was inevitable that their daughter would follow in their footsteps and she was world champion in eventing for a while. She also won a silver medal at the London Olympics in 2012.
In the past, Zara wasn't usually admired for her fashion sense. Like her mother, she didn't really care for dressing up and her choices of outfit at times made her the target for very nasty comments by the tabloids. However, in recent years she's had style watchers speechless in awe at the gorgeous ensembles, fit for a princess, that she would put together.
With a growing interest in fashion, it was inevitable that the young royal would try her hand at designing clothes. Not for her, however, the dainty little dresses that one would expect from a princess. She chose instead to create sporty outfits and naturally her line, which has been available since 2010, focuses on equestrian clothing.
The ZP176 range got its name from Zara's team number, which she received upon representing Britain for the first time. Naturally an equestrian champion will know what riders would want in their clothes and her designs are functional and practical, yet she doesn't compromise on style. They include staples such as jackets, chaps, socks, neck tubes and headbands.
Zara Phillips clothing is available through Musto Outdoor Clothing. The company's ranges, including ZP176, are available online. They deliver mainly to destinations in the UK and continental Europe but next time you're in England, you can also pop into one of their stores to get your very own bit of royal luxury.
