Harriet Phillips's Royal Style Secrets Revealed

Harriet Phillips recently graced a magazine cover in a world exclusive photoshoot and interview, five months after her wedding to Peter Phillips. The feature, held at Calcot Manor & Spa in the Cotswolds, showcased a distinctly British take on country-house dressing, with stylist Hannah Teare at the helm. Teare aimed to enhance Harriet's natural style, describing it as classic yet interesting. The aesthetic fused rigour and romance, referencing 80s Ralph Lauren and Tim Walker's 2005 portrait of Madonna. This inspiration translated into elegant yet relaxed tailoring and rich textures. The styling leaned into an equestrian, 'lady of the manor' feel, incorporating subtle 'rough around the edges' British charm rather than pristine formality. Predominantly British and London-based labels were chosen for their wearability and high-fashion appeal. For the cover, a sparkling evening skirt by Suzannah London was paired with a cashmere knit and a camel coat by Joseph, creating a modern contrast. A tweed suit from Essentiel Antwerp was modernized with vibrant aqua knitwear, a departure from traditional colour pairings. Outerwear from A.W.A.K.E. Mode also added a sharp, directional element. The shoot itself, set in the Cotswolds, embraced the 'charming chaos' of an outdoor production, even featuring Harriet's dog. Teare emphasized Harriet's elegance and grace throughout the process, noting her openness to feeling authentic. For those inspired by Harriet's style, Teare advises investing in classic staples and personal accessories, highlighting that accessible pieces can be styled in diverse ways.
