Monaco princess Charlotte Casiraghi branded 'ignorant' over Native American costume

Charlotte Casiraghi has become the latest public figure to spark anger for wearing a Native American costume.

The Monaco royal, 26, who chose the ensemble to participate in the Gucci-sponsored Paris Masters International Jumping Competition this weekend, was branded 'ignorant' and 'racist' by Tumblr users, many of whom appeared to be royal fans, judging by their usernames.

Royalwatcher wrote on the site: 'I don’t know who told her it was cute to dress in traditonal clothing of Native American but gurlll, I’m judging you and not in the good way.'

girll..

she better not trot any "i didn't mean to offend" BS, or "I didn't know it would offend anyone", a five second search on google would've told anyone this is stupid as hell

Trot out, hahaha, I see what you did there.

(I appreciate that it was probably unintentional, but I love terrible puns, so I'm sticking with it.)

I read recently that the laws in Monaco regarding speaking out against the royal family are strict as hell and if you cause any problems they pretty much trot you to the border (which of course is never more than a couple minutes away). Can anyone c/d?

I was initially thinking how ironic it was that she's got the horse strapped down with double reins and a martingale and that bit (which looks pretty strong from here), because native American horsemanship is about ~communication and ~partnership and ~enables you to go bitless, saddle-free etc.

But then I decided that maybe a horse as highly-strung as... whatever she's riding (maybe a Dutch Warmblood?) probably wouldn't have turned up in the US.

So in conclusion, STILL OFFENSIVE.

p.s. I will say that the sheepskin(?) lined girth looks super comfortable though.
