Zara Tindall enjoyed a busy schedule at the Burghley Horse Trials last week, with the penultimate day allowing time to squeeze in a glass of bubbly at the exclusive launch party of Fairfax and Favor's collaboration with Musto, for which the royal is the face.

HELLO! was invited to the exclusive event, having enjoyed a day exploring all the equestrian event has to offer. To celebrate the launch, Prince William's cousin, 42, sat down with sports broadcaster Nicole Brown to chat about the exciting project, revealing the origins of her fabulous sense of style.

"I'm very lucky to have been in the MUSTO family for such a long time," the mother of three revealed.

"I think my mother [Princess Anne] probably introduced us to MUSTO, but it was always a staple of our wardrobes." The outerwear brand is known for its weather-proof styles which have been elevated by Fairfax and Favor's renowned chic touch to create a four-piece coat line.

Zara added that she will be wearing pieces from the line on the sidelines as she watches her three children Mia, 10, Lena, six, and Lucas, three, play sports through the winter.

In an interview marking the end of her three-day visit to Sri Lanka in January, Princess Anne reflected on the need for a more sustainable approach to fashion.

"You go through the phase when fashion was very structured and people followed fashion, but you had tailors and dressmakers who absolutely fundamentally made that, but you could also alter it because they had the skills to do so," King Charles' sister remarked.

"Now you've got instant fashion which you then throw away, you don’t alter it because it wouldn’t be worthwhile.

"So whether we’ve got to relearn those skills, go back and say 'actually, we need materials that can do more than one evolution of fashion'".

Wear and wear again!

Zara has picked up her mother's affinity for re-wearing her clothes. In June, the King's niece re-wore her beautiful Laura Green dress to a Buckingham Palace garden party which was previously sported at Royal Ascot in 2022.
