In this blog post, we will explore outfit ideas that strike the perfect balance between fashion and functionality for the Longines Global Champions Tour. It's time to unleash your inner fashionista and express your love for horses through your stylish attire with Rönner.

WHERE IS IT?

This event takes place all over the world. So far, in 2023, the cities of Doha, Miami, Mexico City, and Madrid have been the protagonists filled with the glamour of the equestrian lifestyle. The upcoming Longines Global Champions Tour event which will be held from the 1st to the 3rd of June 2023 will take place in the stunning town of St. Tropez, France. St. Tropez is a beautiful seaside town on the French Rivera with a relaxed atmosphere. It is known for its glamorous reputation, attracting celebrities, socialites, and jet-setters from around the world. Its most important features include stunning Mediterranean beaches, a picturesque harbor filled with luxury yachts, upscale boutiques, vibrant nightlife, and a lively arts and cultural scene.

TIPS TO HAVE THE BEST TIME AT LONGINES

With St. Tropez's Mediterranean climate, you can expect warm and sunny days with temperatures in the mid-70s Fahrenheit (around 30º Celsius). Your go-to will be lightweight and breathable fabrics that will keep you cool and comfortable. Here are some tips for horse lovers to enhance their Longines experience:

Since the event takes place outdoors, it's essential to choose clothes that are comfortable and suitable for the weather. Opt for lightweight fabrics and avoid dark colors. Consider layering options in case temperatures fluctuate. Don’t forget to pack a cap or hat that adds the perfect summer touch and protects from long hours in the sun.

Dress code:

The Longines Global Championship is a significant sporting event, so it's essential to select stylish and comfortable clothing. The event has a formal atmosphere, so dress accordingly. It's always better to be overdressed than underdressed.

Expect to do a lot of walking, so ensure that your equestrian outfit and shoes are comfortable and allow you to move freely.

The prestigious venue of Royal Hospital Chelsea sits in the heart of London, one of the world’s most iconic capital cities, and brings the best of the sport together in nail-biting competition for the ninth leg of the tour.

This unique venue close to the River Thames and the chic boutiques of Chelsea has hosted a number of world-class events, and none more so than the thrilling 2021 LGCT and GCL circuit.

Royal Hospital Chelsea will once again be the unique and prestigious venue for the London leg of the Longines Global Champions Tour. World-class show jumping will take place on the South Grounds which lead down to the River Thames, with the breathtaking backdrop of the heritage buildings designed by Sir Christopher Wren. Founded by King Charles II over 300 years ago, it has provided care and comradeship for veterans, known the world over as the Chelsea Pensioners. The event has become a fixture on the social calendar with celebrities such as Jodie Kidd, Rory Bremner, Richard Hammond and Ronan Keating amongst others, all enjoying the action.

London, the capital of England and the United Kingdom, is a 21st-century city with history stretching back to Roman times. At its centre stands the imposing Houses of Parliament, the iconic ‘Big Ben’ clock tower and Westminster Abbey, site of British monarch coronations. Across the Thames River, the London Eye observation wheel provides panoramic views of the South Bank cultural complex, and the entire city. London contains four World Heritage Sites: the Tower of London; Kew Gardens; the site comprising the Palace of Westminster, Westminster Abbey, and St Margaret's Church; and the historic settlement in Greenwich where the Royal Observatory, Greenwich defines the Prime Meridian (0° longitude) and Greenwich Mean Time. Other landmarks include Buckingham Palace, Piccadilly Circus, St Paul's Cathedral, Tower Bridge, Trafalgar Square and The Shard.

The UK has a strong equestrian community with millions of people riding and following the top British show jumpers as they compete around the world. The London event on the Longines Global Champions Tour calendar is the 14th event on the circuit, coming at a key stage in the 2020 season when the ranking battle will be at full throttle for a place in GC Prague Playoffs.
