Butler Stewart –
Moleskin Jeans
White jeans are always a popular
sight on the trot up, but don’t
dismiss other colours (they hide
slobber marks better too!) – these
moleskin jeans in navy are gorgeous
and would look great with a white
shirt and a cape or blazer.
RRP: £79 www.butlerstewart.co.uk
Really Wild Clothing –
Aston Coat in Turquoise
This stylish coat makes a statement, is fresh and
springlike and is also a great length for cooler
conditions. Who knows what the weather is
going to do over the next few weeks – the great
thing is that with this coat, it doesn’t matter!
Looks great open or closed, with collar down or
up to reveal the contrast band.
RRP: £325 www.reallywildclothing.co.uk
Trot up fashion
Horse trials season is here, and so is trot up fashion…
and what a fab ‘catwalk’ this is!
Trot up fashion
isn’t just as easy as
looking good – if
only! The outfits chosen
have to be completely
practical as well as
stylish… you might
look amazing, but if you
struggle to walk, let alone
run while trying to hold
onto a lively horse, you’re
not going to get very far!
In this trot up fashion
guide, we’ve combined
practical and pretty…
well, that’s very much the
aim. Of course, there’s
LOTS out there and these
are just a few examples,
but there’s note about
why they made it in too!
Mackenzie & George Fedora with/without feather pin
Headwear needs to sit well for a trot up – and this one will. If there’s drizzle or a shower,
this fedora is showerproof so it’ll keep hair neat and tidy too. The feathers make a
gorgeous addition, but the fedora on its own is available in a range of colours and looks
fab on its own! RRP: From £49.99 www.mackenzieandgeorge.com
Tom Lane – Classic Fitted Shirt
With a statement jacket, poncho or cape, a classic white
shirt is a great option. To create a more low key look,
white is the way forward too. This Tom Lane version is a
great length and can be worn inside or outside of skirts,
jeans and trousers. The neckline is lovely too.
RRP: £125 www.tomlane.co
Gibson & Birkbeck –
Saddle Print Shirt
A shirt is ideal for the trot up and
although you can never go wrong with
classic white, Gibson & Birkbeck’s prints
are just stunning. This saddle one really
jumped out as it’s bold and equestrian,
but the range is amazing – quirky and
fun and a great addition to a more
conservative look.
RRP: £85 www.gibsonandbirkbeck.co.uk
Timothy Foxx- Catherine Tweed
Jacket – Harmony Tweed
Longer than a standard blazer, this coat
great for all weather conditions. It can be
worn with skirts or jeans and comes in a
range of tweeds too. With the contrasting
cord detail, it adds a colour pop and a
tweedy twist, The vents at the back don’t
restrict movement either.
RRP: £350 www.timothyfoxx.co.uk
