Star of Fashion Week's streetstyle looks,the leopard print sits proudly like the daring print of addicted fashionistas. With its very retro spirit, the leopard fits perfectly into the vintage trend. Gone is the bad image once associated with the leopard. Its wild and assertive style creates sublime contemporary looks with a touch of elegance.

If you've been itching to wear leopard print but still have doubts about how to sport this trendy print, then here are some tips that work every time.

What style of clothing to wear leopard print?

We know, this type of animal print (just like its cousin the exuberant python) immediately conveys the image of strength of character and independence. Indeed, to wear leopard print, you need to have a good dose of insurance.

Sometimes in a rock, bohemian rock or chic register, the leopard succeeds in surfing on different clothing styles by bringing the little extra to the outfit. And that's what's been so successful lately. We have lost count of the number of seasons he has already gone through without flinching. Even the most classic styles can afford it with a little well-placed fashion touch . Headband for a BCBG style, scarf for a classic style, nothing seems to resist it but in the wisest universes.

However, one question particularly bothers the majority of women:can you dare to wear leopard print at work? , in a professional register? Do we dare the leopard shirt at work? So of course, if we are talking about outfit for a job interview , better to avoid it. It could send back a bad image and you never know who you will have in front of you. But outside of that context, the answer is definitely yes!

Morals having largely evolved, you will not be banned from chic women by wearing leopard print, as long as it is well done of course. The daring print is worn with taste and finesse . Indeed, nothing is left to chance with the leopard.

3 tips for wearing leopard print well

@MajorMag

We play the sobriety card

Leopard one piece, I will wear! This is the first rule and probably one of the most important. You can fall for the leopard but always in unique piece. A skirt, a leopard jacket, leopard shoes but never more than two leopard pieces in the same look .

We calm the wild spirit leopard with basics

Second important point:we calm down the leopard. This means that we opt for basics to highlight it correctly .

For example, if you have chosen a leopard midi skirt, there is no question of betting on a top that reveals too much. Better is a t-shirt or a top that frames the look in an elegant and feminine way.

If you bet leopard print shoes , same conclusion. Opt for jeans or a modern cut of plain trousers.

We wear it with the right colors

The leopard does not go with everything. First of all, on the printed side, beware. The leopard is self-sufficient. Do not combine it with checks, flowers or polka dots, it is a very risky exercise.

What color to wear leopard print?

  • Black
  • Neutral and light tones such as beige, cream, nude
  • Dare colors in a very couture register like red or pink.
  • Fir green
  • White

And that's about it. Of course, you can find cool looks with leo and navy blue or yellow, but if you want safe values, stick to the combinations above!

How to wear the leopard dress?

The leopard dress is a risky piece. But if you choose your cut well, you will get a sharp look that you will be envious of. The solution:choose an oversized long dress cut modern. Maxi dress, fluid dress, floaty dress, shirt dress…. But above all, immediately forget the skin-tight dresses in leopard. All fluid cuts are welcome. We associate them with rock chunky boots or sneakers for a bohemian rock style. As for jackets, all you have to do is put on a perfecto or a denim jacket!
Another strong trend of the moment to follow:the leopard slipdress . Tight dress you will tell me and you will be right. But beware, the slipdress is worn 90s style with a t-shirt underneath . This immediately reframes the audacious spirit of the leopard to obtain a definitely retro style. Tight turtleneck sweater or tight t-shirt under your slipdress, ankle boots or sneakers on your feet and here you are a fashion addict worthy of the name! It's fresh, it's stylish and it's incredibly 90s! The perfect combo to be on top this summer. And for a total look, dare the clogs that are making a comeback!

How to wear the leopard skirt?


Let it be said, the leopard seems to have been made to give a savage style to our rock looks! We love her in a satin leopard skirt with rock boots and a perfecto. In summer, we totally dare to combine a rock t-shirt with a midi-cut leopard skirt and block heel sandals. We prefer to wear it in a midi skirt or midi pleated skirt cut. It can also be mixed with black, cream or white tops or tops in summer. A top, a basic white t-shirt, an oversized black or cream sweater in winter….And little trainers on the feet for a casual chic look. These looks are very easy to reproduce!

What to wear with a leopard top?

@Gualap

Already, if you choose to put on a leopard top, there are not 10,000 possibilities. It must be a blouse or an elegant shirt or a jacket or even a coat. Apart from these pieces, we forget the leopard.

When wearing an animal print top, we like to give it a more streetwear look with a denim piece like beautiful mom jeans or flare jeans for the seventies spirit.

You can also surf the jungle style with khaki pants like cargo pants.

Do we dare to wear leopard shoes?


Yes, yes, yes 100 times yes! It's the final touch to a sophisticated look.

  • We wear it in leopard sandals with a black satin slipdress.
  • For a chic style, wear leopard pumps with plain carrot pants and a shirt.
  • You can also wear it in winter with leopard ankle boots with heels which will sublimate 7/8 cut jeans.
  • For a wiser register, opt for leopard loafers!
  • And in summer, we love sandals with thin straps with a discreet leo print. Imagine the look with destroyed denim shorts!

Absolutely avoid with leopard print

  • Combinations with other prints.
  • leopard clothes that are too tight.
  • The total leopard look.
  • Dresses and skirts that are too short in a leo version with heels.
