Quality And Style With Zara Phillips Clothing

By Marissa Velazquez


The Zara Phillips clothing range came about as a result of a collaboration between the Musto brand and this dedicated equestrian. Phillips is granddaughter to the Queen and has been riding since she was a young child. She has been extremely successful and won the Eventing World Championship in 2006 and a silver medal at the Olympics hosted in London in 2012.

Keith Musto, a British Olympic sailor, originally developed this brand, aiming for a product that could keep sailors warm and dry no matter what the weather conditions. Princess Ann was a keen sailor and so the family was familiar with this brand. Equestrian sport, like sailing, requires going out in all types of weather and it was not long before Musto was producing an equestrian range too.

Who better to collaborate with the development of a range of equestrian products than someone who had made a name for herself in this popular sport? In 2009 an announcement was made that Phillips was to be involved in producing a range of equestrian garments for Musto. These products would carry the logo ZP176, which was the team number she rode under when first representing Britain.

All the practical experience she acquired in her many years as a rider could now be utilized in making these products as comfortable as possible. Stylishness was also important to her and this shows in the cut of the garments, with articulation built in to the sleeves and other features allowing for free movement. The garments were also well tested, making sure of their quality and durability.

The items include various jackets like one which is fleece lined, one that is suitable for training and another hooded one. There is also a gilet and a t-shirt. The range was launched in 2010 and have become so popular that a range for children has also been introduced since then.

The technology used in the fabrics means that they are extremely waterproof and breathable. The moisture is wicked out and the warmth kept in. Rain drops simply slide off the fabrics due to the water repellent finish.

One can purchase this range from a number of suppliers. Going online enables one to compare garments by examining photographs and descriptions. Once a decision has been made, color and size must be selected.

In recent years, the features on these garments have increased their practicality without taking away from their style. For example, fleece lined pockets may be included, well positioned for keeping hands warm. A hood may be removed and adjusted. Cuffs have adjustable studs. Vents at the rear of the garment make it fit well over the saddle. Zippers with a pommel flap in front help with fit and comfort too.

The Zara Phillips clothing range combines the expertise acquired by the Musto brands over many years with the practical experience of this daughter of Princess Ann and very successful equestrian. The range produced is of superior quality, with designs allowing for freedom of movements and fabrics that are waterproof and breathable.
