Zara Tindall, 43, is at home in her sportswear for equestrian events and also knows how to dress up to the nines for all-important royal occasions, but did you know she had a striking noughties FROW era?

In this long-forgotten snap, Princess Anne's only daughter was pictured at a fashion party rocking a sultry sheer black top and form-fitting nude-coloured trousers.

The royal's signature blonde bob was straight and sleek while her makeup was bronzed and glowing for her appearance at the Renaissance Collection Fashion Show by Louis Mariette.

She stood chatting casually while holding a camel-hued jacket which matched her trousers, and earlier in the evening she was seen with the jacket on, showing off her coordinating micro bag and pointed heels.

The archives of Zara's outfits are equally as enthralling, and they include a stylish knee-high boot and skirt combo she chose to sport on one of her first date nights with now-husband Mike Tindall and a plunging Grecian gown in pastel shade also worn during her early courtship.

Then, while attending the Gatcombe Horse Trials in 2004, Zara stepped out in a Barbie pink rugby-style T-shirt and a very short denim mini skirt for her day out alongside her cousin Prince Harry.

Zara isn't the only one who has been experimental with her fashion in her younger years, as her own mother Princess Anne has been caught on camera in some very fashion-forward looks. From bold patterns to brave silhouettes, the Princess Royal was not afraid to test the boundaries of style when out and about.
