Development Of The Zara Phillips Clothing Range

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.

The development of a range of equestrian garments by Musto was just a matter of time. Like sailors, riders too are exposed to the elements and need to remain as warm and dry as possible. Phillips was a great ambassador for the brand and her collaboration in production of this range was a logical one. She is known on the world stage for her equestrian successes, including winning the Eventing World Championship in 2006 and a silver medal at the Olympics in 2012.

In 2009 Musto made the announcement that she was to be involved in the development of a range of equestrian garments. The products would all bear the logo ZP176. This was the number she wore when first competing as part of the British team.

This accomplished rider could bring all her practical experience to bear on every aspect of production, from design to testing. She wanted designs that allowed for complete freedom of movement but were stylish at the same time. Rigorous testing was performed with regards to style and fit.

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 fabrics used for all of these items are technologically advanced, making them waterproof, breathable and windproof. The outer fabric has a water repellent finish, preventing rain from penetrating the garment. An inner lining forces moisture trapped inside through the garment and out, keeping the wearer warm and dry.

This range is available from a number of suppliers, most of which have online websites where photographs of items can be viewed. One can compare items with regards to design, color, features and prices. The right size must be selected and sizing guides are included to help with this.

These garments have developed over the years and now include many features that add to their performance. They may have well positioned pockets for warming up hands. Vents in the back help with a comfortable fit over the saddle. Studs and adjustable drawstrings can help to ensure a snug fit.

The decision to combining the expertise of the Musto brand with the practical experience of a dedicated equestrian to produce the Zara Phillips clothing range was inspirational. These garments are extremely comfortable, keeping riders dry and warm in any conditions. However, at the same time the distinctive designs allow one to look stylish at the same time.
