7 Fashion Lessons We Can Learn From Princess Anne

Like her late mum before her, the Princess has long enjoyed wearing a skirt suit. While Queen Elizabeth was known for solid brights, Anne is more willing to choose those in coloured tweeds and prints.

The Miu Miu AW25 collection had a series of the two-piece sets reminiscent of the Princess Royal’s go-tos. Your decision to opt like Anne in heeled loafers or in lace-ups and sparkly socks like the catwalk.

A tartan kilt is a royal wardrobe essential, especially when they’re spending time at Balmoral Castle. Anne’s dark plaid choice, worn here with contrast albeit matching accessories, is worth noting for its neat knee-length hem.

It might have been her elder brother King Charles that Daniel Lee most recently collaborated with, but when it came to the AW25 runway collection, Anne’s influence was plain to see from the kilt skirts to the brooches to the headscarves.

When she’s not in a tiara or a riding hat, the Princess can often be found wearing a silk scarf to keep her signature bouffant hairstyle in place.

The exact same styling trick was used at Gucci, but this time the house’s silk scarves were placed over sporty baseball caps for added athletic flair.

Princess Anne has become an accidental eyewear influencer over the last few years as her preferred sports-style specs have become a hypebeast’s favourite. For this season, however, it’s her embracing of aviator styles that cut through.

At Chloé, the aviator silhouette made a triumphant return. As Anne and the looks on the runway prove, you don’t need to be a pilot to sport this style.

The Princess often decorates her shoulder with a stealthy brooch. It adds not only a decorative touch but one that speaks of family heritage and access to the world’s best jewellery collection.

For so long, it was only members of the royal family who seemed to be the ones sporting brooches. This season, however, there’s an encouragement for us all to pin one to our pieces. Copy the decree seen at Tory Burch and decorate your favourite black dress with a singular sparkle on the shoulder.

With all eyes on a royal’s face, and the jewellery that surrounds it, a contrast collar like this one worn by Anne is a natty styling choice.

At Patou, a similar look was seen with the white collar breaking up the classic all-black combination.

A keen equestrian who competed in the 1976 Olympic games, Princess Anne has a wardrobe of riding garb from knee-high boots to wax jackets.

Tucked-in trousers are back for AW25 and it was, of course, Hermès who returned them to the catwalk this season in a subtle nod to not only Princess Anne, but the house’s own long-standing equestrian tradition.
