Zara Tindall has had her fair share of noteworthy style moments in the royal spotlight. From her bold and beautiful Royal Ascot ensembles to her Cinderella-blue Laura Green dress for King Charles' coronation, the 45-year-old royal is no stranger to sartorial success.
While the royal's immaculate style has changed through the years, the Princess Royal's daughter served up several fun looks and royal rule-breaking outfits during her teenage years we hope she recreates one day.
Rewind to 1998, when Zara attended the wedding of Santa Palmer-Tomkinson and Simon Sebag-Montefiore. The then-17-year-old royal was photographed exiting a car outside the entrance of The Liberal Jewish Synagogue in St John's Wood, London.
Zara opted for a chic pinstripe mini-skirt and matching tailored blazer, both in a dark ebony hue. The royal slipped into square-toed black mules and accessorised with a black boater hat adorned with swathes of black fabric.

While not forbidden, it is not usually custom for royals to wear black outside of an official period of mourning - and certainly not to a wedding.

A bride would dress her bridesmaids wearing white in order to confuse any such spirits, safely disguising the bride among the bridal party.
