Zara Tindall looked beautiful in black when she joined her husband Mike Tindall at The 03 Champions Ball, hosted at London’s swanky Dorchester Hotel over the weekend.
The 43-year-old royal looked beautiful in a jacquard dress with a nipped-in waistline and elbow-length sleeves as she cosied up to former Strictly star Kristina Rihanoff.
The garment’s floor-length, ballgown style was given a casual twist thanks to a relaxed shirt collar neckline.
The mother-of-three pulled her blonde hair back into a low bun and accessorised with large pearl earrings. The statement accessories were complemented by a snakeskin print clutch bag.
Mike was also spotted looking dapper in his black tie get-up, cosying up to Zara as they showed their support for a good cause.
The annual Champions Ball, which includes a champagne reception, sit-down dinner and charity auction, supports Rainbows Children’s Hospice, a charity based in Loughborough.
The glittering soirée was attended by a host of famous faces, including former Strictly dancer Kristina Rihanoff and actor James Nesbitt.
Zara’s understated style
The royal mum – who raises children Mia, 10, Lena, six, and Lucas, three, with husband Mike – typically favours understated outfits, so it’s always a pleasure to see her dressed up.

This isn’t the first time Zara has worn the gorgeous drop earrings. The equestrian daughter of Princess Anne donned the tiered jewels to attend the relaunch of Rebecca Vallance in Harrods a year ago.
She once again let the statement piece do the talking, teaming her jewellery with a black crystal-trimmed dress.

Meanwhile, at her late grandmother Queen Elizabeth II’s lying in state, Zara paid tribute to the monarch’s love of pearls with a beautiful pair of pearl earrings which perfectly offset her elegant netted headband.
