Go Riding In Style And Comfort With Zara Phillips Clothing

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 a true British blue-blood. Her mother is Princess Anne, the only daughter of Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip. Because her father, Captain Mark Phillips, does not own a title, neither does Zara or her brother Peter. This doesn't mean that they're just like anyone else, though, even if their parents tried to raise them to have their feet planted firmly on the ground. After all, it was her uncle, Prince Charles, who chose her first name and a visit to Granny meant going to 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.

Zara has never been much of a style icon. In fact, she's often been criticized for her lack of fashion sense. However, in recent years she's undergone a metamorphosis and has more often appeared in public looking like the princess she technically is.

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 range is known as ZP176. This is the number that Zara used the first time she rode for her country. Her experience as an equestrian champion means that she knows just what riders need so her clothes focus on function, comfort and practicality. However, they're stylish too. The range includes items such as jackets, socks, caps, headbands, neck tubes and chaps.

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.
