When donning leopard print, look to the fashion greats for tips and tricks. Designers like Yves Saint Laurent and Dolce & Gabbana never shy away from integrating these felines' spots into their collections (via The Inside). At New York Fashion Week 2021, we even saw a western-inspired cow print (via Forbes)! However, if you're new to the animal print game, we do suggest starting small.
Leopard print, with it's caramel undertones and varying shades of brown, offers dimension and depth to any outfit. The Zoe Report recommends investing in a long leopard dress to either layer over jeans during the winter or debut as soon as the summer solstice hits. But don't go too crazy.
Hot Drops suggests limiting your leopard print to one item per outfit, so as not to visually overstimulate. Stick with a printed blazer, high-waist trousers, shoes, a maxi skirt or a dress. And remember to balance the look with neutral shades such as black, brown or white.
