It's said that Elizabeth of Austria was so concerned about the perfect fit of her riding habits that she had herself rather ruthlessly tailored into them. That is, alterations performed while actually wearing the habit.

I do think that is overworking the perfection just a bit.

Somewhere in some old hunt books are photos of our own "royalty" riding aside though mostly she chose cross saddle: Jackie O. I think maybe one of those, a black and white snap, was sidesaddle wearing That Scarf and Those Sunglasses.

I have seen a photo of Marie of Edinburgh, Queen of Romania riding aside reviewing her troops during WWI. I can't seen to find a copy of it at the moment.
