For years, Zara Tindall (nee Phillips) has been known as one of the more rebellious royals.

That is until recently, when the Olympic medal-winning equestrian started reigning in her look.

Under Miall’s tutelage, the transformation was both immediate and stunning.

Today, Tindall is one of the most polished members of the royal family.

It exposed a lack of concern for protocol.

While the outfit checked those boxes, it left a lot to be desired in terms of formality.

Color aside, however, the queen still looked every inch a royal.

The same could not be said for Tindall.

The entire look was disproportionate and disastrous, making the normally athletic-looking princess appear lumpy and frumpy.

Her exposed tan lines, ample cleavage, and bedazzled headband didn’t help.

“I was amazed.

Not only that but her outfit simply didn’t match,” a male onlooker noted toDaily Mail.

While the outfit drew much criticism, Tindall proved that the clothes do not make the royal.

The bride known for bucking Buckingham Palace expectations went full-on princess for her big day.

Plus, it had pockets!

Upon closer inspection, however, things weren’t all they seemed.

“I got married with them this colour,” she said.

“It was my ‘something blue.'”

Unusual adornments like chopsticks appeared to be a misguided attempt at being fashion-forward, while dowdy flowers fell flat.

Royals and their hats are often the subject of scrutiny.

Many a momentous occasion has been dwarfed by a large, garish headpiece.

Tindall is an athletically built woman with plenty of curves.

She was an Olympic equestrian, and her outdoorsy nature lends itself to less tailored and more moveable clothing.

She and husband Mike enjoy golfing together and participate in charity golf events.

That combination of diet and exercise helps Tindall stay athletically fit and trim.

Clearly, Green understood how to dress Tindall in a way that accentuates her lovely shape while remaining regal.

But it’s the punch of pink that kept this design from looking too conservative.

For her part, Green told People in 2020 that Tindall already had an eye for style.

That seems to be Zara Tindall’s motto when it comes to fashion these days.

Tindall kept the look elegant and understated with her shoes, clutch, and fascinator.

Princess Beatrice also wore a long-sleeved floral dress in shades of pink.

Why do the royals often coordinate their color schemes?

It’s not usually a coincidence.

Often, it is to show support, solidarity, or to send a message.

She added, “They’re not just wearing it because they think it’s pretty.”

But some say the evolution of Tindall is about much more than simply making a fashion statement.

It’s whispered that she may be dressing for the part of a princess.
