Zara Tindall, the daughter of Princess Anne and a prominent figure in the British equestrian scene, has officially become the face of luxury fashion brand Fairfax & Favor. Renowned for her impeccable sense of style, Tindall's partnership with the brand highlights her personal affinity for their products, especially the Regina boots, which she considers a "wardrobe staple." This collaboration not only underscores her influence in the realm of fashion but also aligns with her values of quality craftsmanship and sustainability.
Fairfax & Favor, established in Norfolk in 2013 by Marcus Fairfax Fountaine and Felix Favor Parker, has made a name for itself with its high-quality craftsmanship and stylish products. The brand specializes in footwear, accessories, and outerwear, appealing to both the equestrian set and fashion enthusiasts across the UK and US. Recently certified as a B Corp, Fairfax & Favor emphasizes sustainability, a principle that resonates deeply with Tindall.
As an avid racegoer and current committee member of Cheltenham Racecourse, Zara Tindall has long been recognized for her sartorial choices at racing events. With a style that marries elegant tailoring with practicality, she often draws inspiration from her mother, the Princess Royal, and her stylist, Annie Miall. Tindall's approach to fashion has evolved, allowing her to gallop ahead in the style stakes while ensuring her wardrobe reflects her fun and outdoorsy personality.
Tindall frequently attends events with her husband Mike and their three children—Mia, Lena, and Lucas—making practicality a key consideration in her fashion choices. She noted, "For me, it’s about what works and feels good to wear." This practical approach is evident in her preference for Fairfax & Favor's Regina boots, which have garnered popularity among equestrians and fashion-savvy individuals alike.
In her words, "My number one style tip for dressing at Cheltenham would be to create a balance between elegance and practicality." This advice underscores her belief that classic attire can be both fashionable and functional. She encourages individuals to "choose a classic, tailored outfit, but make sure to incorporate layers and weather-appropriate accessories."
Fairfax & Favor's Regina boots exemplify this balance, combining timeless elegance with craftsmanship. Tindall expressed admiration for the brand's ability to deliver "versatile and stylish designs," making them suitable for both casual outings and more formal events. She stated, "I've always liked how they manage to combine timeless elegance with craftsmanship and practicality."
Zara continues to draw from her family's legacy when selecting outfits for various occasions. She often embraces a mix of British and Australian designers, particularly during events like the annual Magic Millions in Australia. This blend of influences allows her to maintain a unique style while also adapting to different cultural contexts: "So, for instance, when I go to Australia for the annual Magic Millions event, I wear a mix of British and Australian designers, and then continue wearing them when I'm back in the UK."
Her partnership with Fairfax & Favor has been a natural fit, as she has consistently returned to the brand over the years due to its high-quality products and stylish designs. As Marcus Fairfax Fountaine remarked, "Zara truly epitomises our brand’s DNA, embodying its blend of timeless rural elegance and contemporary sophistication."
