Born on this day in 1950, Anne Elizabeth Alice Louise, Princess Royal is the second child, and
only daughter of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.
Considered by many to be the hardest working royal (performing on average 500 engagements
a year) and famous for her no nonsense attitude, love of horses, sports and the great outdoor,
Princess Anne has without doubt demonstrated incredible elegance and poise throughout the
course of her private, and public life.
As the first senior royal to pose for Vogue’s September Issue, the somewhat reluctant style icon
found herself to be the talk of the town as a young woman back in the late 1960’s early 1970’s
with her super chic and classic sense of style capturing the attention of fashion editors and
design houses the world over, all of whom were desperate to dress and work with Royal
Family’s first lady of fashion.
In celebration of the Princess Royal’s 70th birthday, we’re taking a look back at some of her
most stylish and high fashion moments from over the past 7 decades, with our pick of some of
Princess Anne’s most timeless and iconic looks.
