The Charlotte: The Illusion
The Charlotte is our definitive competition jacket, engineered for a commanding presence across all disciplines. This elegant, close-fitting four-button design features slender twin vents to emphasise the waistline, providing a tailored profile that defines athletic authority.
This is a new design for 2025, cleverly incorporating slim darker contrast panels down the sides of the coat and under the arms to create the illusion of a slimmer more elegant profile. The design was inspired by a dress worn by Kate Winslet at the Premiere Of Carnage in Paris. It was a Stella McCartney design, called the 'miracle' and the placement of the seams is critical to create the desired affect.
The Fabric Excellence: The soul of the Charlotte lies in our advanced technical fabric—a textile engineered specifically for the rigours of elite equestrianism. It offers a unique Kinetic Stretch that follows your every move, yet possesses the remarkable memory to hold its classical, crisp lines throughout the most demanding tests.
