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.

Circa 2009, it was announced that Phillips would be releasing her equestrian line with the company Musto Outdoor Clothing. The line was launched in the summer of 2010. It is named ZP176 after the team number that she supported the first time she represented her company in competition.

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 has said in interviews that she tested and tried out everything that is in the collection. A lot of her involvement was tweaking small things to make the goods more practical. She says that her line of clothes is not about mainstream fashion. Instead, it is geared toward producing items that work efficiently for training and look good too.

Likewise, there are products made specifically for event and stables, in the saddle, and competition activities.
