What To Know About Zara Phillips Clothing


By Jaclyn Hurley


Zara Anne Elizabeth Phillips, better known as Zara Phillips, is a British equestrian. This is the title given to individuals who ride or perform on horseback, and in the case of Phillips, she followed the footsteps of her parents when she took up riding. Phillips is also the second oldest grandchild of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, and currently fifteenth in the line of succession. In 2009, she became involved in fashion. More specifically, a Zara Phillips clothing line.

Around 2009, it was officially announced that she would have her own equestrian line with Musto Outdoor Clothing company. This line is named ZP176, after the team number that she had received in her first competition representing her country. The line officially launched during the summer of 2010.

The collection features a number of products including t-shirts, trousers, tops, hoodies and sweatshirts, jackets and coats, headwear and caps, gilets, breeches and jodhpurs, base layer and other accessories. The items feature a sport look and incorporate technical fabrics that are designed to keep riders protected out and in the saddle.

Consumers can purchase the products from the website of Musto. On there, they can also narrow selections down in order to shop by technology, product type, activity, outwear type and color. While items are meant to be used by equestrians, they can also be used by normal people. The prices are expected to range based on numerous factors.

Phillips said that she tested and tried out everything in this collection. Her involvement was mostly around tweaking things so that they are more practical for wearers, especially equestrians. She has said that her clothing is not about mainstream fashion and is more centered on engineering items that work well in training but are not embarrassingly ugly.

When it comes to function, some of these are made with materials that allow them to be breathable, water resistant, showerproof, windproof, fast drying and breathable. Likewise, there are products made specifically for event and stables, in the saddle, and competition activities. Numerous technologies are used in production of the products, such as: DWR, Coolmax, Primaloft Synergy, SPF and Primaloft.

The line was two years in the making. While functional, the pieces are still classy sportswear. They might be preferred by individuals who want to look good while training or competing, but not at the loss of functionality. The experience she has as an equestrian has helped her design items that will work best for other athletes of the sport.

Most of the products are available in neutral colors, varying grays, blues and blacks, as well as whites and reds. The items feature Musto classics, including the Grooms Gilet and Snug Chaps with updates on design, fit and color option. Sizing for most of the goods is available in x small to xxx large, as well as size 8 to 18. The technology, reviews and features of the pieces are included on the Musto website as well. Availability might differ, but most of the goods are available for purchase from the Musto website. There may be other sellers who have gently used or new items available on other sites.
