A walk on the wild side never looked so chic. Animal print continues its reign as fashion’s fiercest trend, evolving year after year yet always returning stronger. From subtle hints in accessories to head-to-toe looks, these prints are surprisingly versatile and can be mixed and matched with everything from denim to satin midi skirts to oversized trousers.
The key lies in choosing pieces that strike a modern balance. Balmain’s graphic Ébène bag feels modern, not costume-y, while Veronica Beard’s tailored Patra jacket is a sophisticated way to introduce leopard to your outerwear rotation. The pop of color in Roger Vivier’s Belle Vivier slingbacks showcases how even a touch of animal print can elevate your look.
