How to Wear Leopard Print in 2024

Leopard print certainly isn’t new, but if it ain’t broke… Though the classic print has been around forever, it has been experiencing a major resurge over the past couple of seasons and it is showing no sign of waning. While last season saw the mob wife aesthetic take hold, leopard print is looking a little less lairy this autumn/winter, with more of an elevated neutral slant and a casual feel dominating over the all-out glam of last season.

If you’re looking to add a little leopard to your wardrobe, there is no shortage of outfit inspiration around right now, whether top-to-toe, as a pop of interest, or worn as a neutral. Pair with trending burgundy this autumn/winter, dark denim, and suede, or update your outerwear for the chilly season with a leopard print coat. And if you want to go for a retro spin, be it 1950s Starlet, ’60s IT girl, 70s rocker, 80s Glam, 90s nonchalance, or 2000s indie sleaze, Pinterest will provide no end of archival looks to lean into. And if you need any extra help, here are 8 ways to add some leopard print into your life in 2024…
