A fresh twist on royal style
Zara Tindall, daughter of Princess Anne and niece to King Charles, recently impressed fashion fans with a chic and soft spin on classic tailoring. Known for her polished race day and garden party looks, Zara stepped into a modern power suit with feminine flair at a public event in Brisbane, Australia.
Stepping out in style
The 43-year-old royal attended Buildcorp’s seventh annual Queensland Rugby Lunch at The Calile Hotel, dressed in a pale peach suit. The outfit, by fashion label ME + EM, included a single-breasted blazer paired with matching slim-fit cigarette trousers. Together, the pieces are valued at £520.
She paired the outfit with nude heels and a satin shirt, creating a look that felt both graceful and relaxed. Instagram
She added an elegant touch with a satin shirt in an oyster tone and completed the look with nude suede heels. Zara styled her blonde hair in soft waves, tucked neatly behind her ears to show off a pair of simple gold hoop earrings.
Stylists weigh in
Celebrity stylist Angela Kyte praised Zara's outfit, calling it a perfect mix of modern class and soft elegance. “The pale suit gives her a clean and polished shape while still looking relaxed,” she said. The open blazer over a light shirt made her look both stylish and approachable.
Angela also highlighted the cropped trousers, saying they gave her legs a longer look and made the whole outfit feel more current. “It’s ideal for a formal event where you want to look smart but still feel natural,” she explained. The soft blush color, she added, gave a light and breezy feel to a look that is often seen as formal or stiff.

Royal couple style goals
While Zara chose a gentle and graceful outfit, her husband Mike Tindall went for a classic dark suit. The contrast between his bold look and her softer style made them stand out as a couple.
“They balance each other perfectly,” said Angela. “Her soft pastels match his strong lines, making them look even more striking together.”
The couple is often seen coordinating their fashion choices, whether at sports events or formal gatherings. This outing was another example of how well they match in both fashion and personality.
Zara’s fashion evolution
Zara’s recent look is a big change from another outfit she wore earlier this year. At a fundraiser in July, she turned heads in a velvet black dress by Rebecca Vallance. The dress, called ‘Versailles,’ had gold details on the sides and gave her a bold evening look.
Zara continues to show that royal fashion can be elegant, fun, and fresh. With every appearance, she proves her unique sense of style.
