Zara Tindall may be a member of the royal family, but you're more likely to see her wearing a practical rain jacket than you are a floor-length gown, largely because of her interest in outdoor sports and the equestrian world.
So, who better to launch a collection of weather-appropriate outerwear than Zara? Today, two British icons are teaming up with Zara to launch Musto x Fairfax & Favor's capsule collection. The coat range blends Musto's performance innovation with Fairfax & Favor's countrycore-inspired designs. Combine those with Zara's chic outdoorsy style and royal heritage, and you've got a trio of British perfection.
Zara says of her new range: "I’m really excited to be part of this new collaboration between two of my favourite brands. Combining Musto’s technical prowess and Fairfax & Favor’s quintessentially British style has resulted in a collection of coats I’m looking forward to wearing this winter."
Though the collection has only just launched, items are predictably selling out fast. However, if you can't find your favourite design in your size, there are rumours of a second drop happening soon, so well worth keeping an eye out on both websites.

The longline Women's Odyssey Waterproof Coat, £395, with a removable hood provides a luxurious outer layer that is perfect for the daily dog walk or a stroll in the countryside. You can shop it in a dark navy or a forest green colourway. If you love the coat but want it in a shorter length, you can shop the Odyssey Waterproof in jacket form for £350 in both of the same shades.
For a padded style, you can click add to cart on the Odyssey Pertex Primaloft Coat, £450, in the shades 'Deep Well' – the dark navy – or Darkest Spruce – the forest green. The luxurious midi coat is packed with technology that will keep you warm and dry on even the chilliest of mornings. You can find this coat in a shorter jacket style as well for £380, in the same two shades.
ZARA'S IN-STOCK WEATHER-PROOF JACKET FAVOURITESIf you're after a waterproof jacket like the ones Zara is modelling above but the stock went before you could get to it, there's still sizing available on Musto's website of other coats that the royal has shared her love for in the past. Since she's been an ambassador for the brand for around 17 years, it makes sense that she has other favourites from the outerwear collection.
Her first pick was the Women's Marina Long Quilted Jacket, usually £250 but on sale for £125 now, which is perfect for wintry walks thanks to its long length and cosy padded design
A close second pick was the Women's Headland Pertex Primaloft Parka, on sale for £188 here down from £375, featuring a waterproof finish that can withstand even the heaviest of rain storms.
Finally, Zara says she loves the Women's Marina Primaloft Rain Jacket, £220, which has not one but two layers of waterproof fabric to keep you dry this autumn/winter. Ideal.
“These jackets are the perfect choice for staying warm and dry, as the colder, wetter weather starts to set in. I have worn Musto for years, and it’s the perfect kit for riding horses, walking the dogs, and being outside, all of which I love," she said of the three styles.
