How To Pull Off Leopard Prints – The Family Edit

When it comes to animal-printed clothes, leopard spots are perhaps one of the most challenging to pull off. Wear it poorly and you’d be heading to Tackyville, but if you rock it confidently (with the right kind of silhouette), you’d look street-style ready in a flash.

You’ll be surprised to know how wearable this motif is, with the right approach. Do it fam style and rope in your better half and tots for an uber-cute, matchy-matchy look:

Women

The general rule to abide by when donning leopard prints is to wear loose silhouettes and flattering cuts. Opt for chic flowy dresses (Reformation) and sleek trousers (Stories) for a statement-making look. A tight skirt or fitting top might just veer you off-track (skanky isn’t the look we are going for). If you’re not ready to jump on this bandwagon yet, start out with animal-printed accessories to add pizzazz to your look, such as Coach’s Dinky crossbody and Gucci’s silk shawl.

Men

For our male Shoppers out there, if animal prints have always seemed tacky over tasteful in your books, our picks will beg you to differ. An easy rule of thumb to follow is to pair one statement piece with neutrals i.e. a leopard printed sweatshirt or shirt with jeans, slacks, or a smart jacket. Start out with leopard-printed accessories if a shirt or sweatshirt is too much of a statement. Our picks include Vans’ classic sneakers, a tie from River Island, and a Herschel backpack that’s both fashionable and functional.
