Charlotte Casiraghi showed off her horse riding skills in street-inspired fancy dress at the Gucci Paris Masters on Sunday. The Monégasque royal was competing in the event's Charity Pro-AM Style & Competition round, which sees a professional pair up with an amateur to run a relay around the course at the Parc des Expositions in Villepinte.The 28-year-old got into character as she ran a relay around the course dressed in a gold embellished jacket, hoodie and crop top, while her horse even had a medallion and graffiti pattern. Her boyfriend, French comedian Gad Elmaleh, was in the crowd showing his support as Charlotte competed in the event.

Charlotte wasn't the only famous face taking part in the event. The royal was joined by Bruce Springsteen's daughter Jessica and French actor Guillaume Canet in the round, which gives teams the opportunity to choose their outfit theme and the background music that will be playing. The competition has a personal angle for Charlotte, as her mother Princess Caroline is a patron of the children's charity AMADE, which is a benefactor of the event. The accomplished rider has had a working relationship with Gucci for many years now – she is the official equestrian "ambassador" for the fashion house and the brand designs an exclusive range for Charlotte to wear during her show jumping competitions.

As well as competing in the Gucci Masters, Charlotte has also starred as the face of the Gucci cosmetics collection and is preparing to celebrate the first birthday of her son Raphaël in the run up to Christmas.
