Trends may come and go (and come back 20 years later). But leopard print is one of those garments that will forever be a staple in our wardrobes. After all, it has the ability to be the best of both worlds: it adds something extra to an outfit that may seem basic, and it miraculously pairs well with any type of person and any type of clothing. 🐆
Aside from this timeless factor, it's hard to ignore that leopard print has taken a huge leap forward in 2020... It's popping up all over the place. Jackets, leopard dresses , and even shorts. And suddenly, we feel the need to incorporate this animal print a little more into our own outfits.
Luckily, celebrities and social media influencers are on board. And some have found the perfect way to style these wild pieces. They mix prints, add leopard to their work outfits, or use accessories to make a statement. The ways to wear leopard are undoubtedly endless, but we've listed 28 outfit ideas—along with some tips—to help you rock it. Let's dive in now 😉
1) Keep it Simple
Sometimes it's worth not overthinking our favorite print. A leopard skirt pairs well with a black tank top for a breezy summer look. There's no need to overdo it; sometimes, getting straight to the point is the answer when it comes to clothing.

2) Match it to the Jean
Pairing a leopard bodysuit or even a leopard blouse with your favorite jeans is a way to make them a little more interesting. It will cut through the "simple" style of the jeans and give them a little more charisma.
3) Layer a Dress over a T-Shirt
Trying to adapt a leopard print dress to daytime? Layer it over your favorite white tee. This combination breaks up the dress's evening vibe to create a daytime outfit that's both understated and casual... There's something really special about this outfit, given its slightly offbeat feel. 🤓

4) Stick to a Color Scheme
Leopard print shoes are a great way to complement a neutral-colored outfit. For example, stick to very light colors (close to white) and break it up with an animal print: guaranteed to wow!
5) Double the Leopard Clothing
Take a cue from Gabrielle Union and pair a leopard jacket over a leopard shirt... Bold, but a success! We approve.
6) Dare to wear a jacket
For some, it's too flashy... But for all those who take the plunge, there's one thing that stands out for sure: trying it is adopting it. You might even find that a leopard jacket is just as versatile as your favorite jeans or leather jacket after a while...

7) Opt for Accessories
Instead of a solid-colored bag, this print will stand out with a black dress. Choosing a leopard-print accessory is a fun way to break up your outfit. For example, keep the classic, ultra-authoritative side of "all black" and add a completely different touch to break up the outfit, and it's always a good idea!

8) Opt for Color
You don't have to go the traditional route. Leopard print clothing comes in a variety of colors, and that's what we offer in this store. A yellow print dress, for example, is perfect for summer. ☀️
9) Choose the Leopard Scarf
Is your outfit missing a little something? A leopard print scarf could be the solution. ✌️
10) Associate it with White
This combination creates a summer look that's both fresh and fun. As we saw in our article on colors to wear with leopard, we should consider our print a neutral. This makes it easy to understand that any color is okay to wear with it.
11) Show imagination
For example, pairing leopard print ankle boots with a complete pastel look. Again, our example is yellow here, but there's nothing stopping you from opting for another flashy color. 💛
12) Choose Elegance
That same printed skirt that looks great with a white tee suddenly becomes appropriate for a classy outfit with the help of a blazer and high leather boots. This outfit is very professional.
13) The Right Color Pants
Jennifer Garner knows that leopard heels are a great way to spice up your basics. And choosing pants in a color that's very close to your print is one of the easiest ways to match it. Namely, black, white, and all variations of brown and beige. 🤎

14) Dare to wear a skirt and sneakers
This is one of those quirky ways to style that skirt we've been talking about so much since the beginning of this article. A cool-girl style that we totally approve of!
15) Wear it from head to toe
The more leopards, the better! Mixing different garments in this print creates a cool, unexpected, and chic look. Try it now!
16) Opt for the Hat
If you're looking to rock a monochromatic outfit and top it all off with a killer accessory, a hat is one of the best ways to go. Like this all-white, printed hat look? Let us know in the comments 👇
17) Leopard Pants AND Jacket
An easy yet fierce solution for women looking for a sultry look. The black bag and heels tie the outfit together for an ultra-chic finish. Not everyone dares to pull off the full outfit, but what a success...
18) Prefer Class
A long leopard coat paired with printed pants is the perfect combination for a look worthy of the runways of the biggest fashion shows. If you're looking for a super classy outfit, here's our solution! 🕶
19) Dress + Leather Boots
Instead of wearing heels or sneakers, give this charismatic dress a whole new look with some wide-legged shoes. Our favorite is our ambassador Laura, who wears her dress with chunky leather boots—so stylish and offbeat.
20) Leopard Pants with Running Shoes
Leopard print pants have that special something about them that gives your outfit a touch of elegance that other pieces don't. And dressing them up with more casual pieces, like running shoes and long socks, adds a timeless, 2000s vibe. It's anything but boring. 👟
21) Leopard Stockings with a Metalicca T-shirt
In other words, bring out your inner rock star... A Metallica T-shirt with leopard-print bottoms , and boom, you're done for a totally demonic look. This is one of the best tips in this article for wearing your favorite piece correctly.
22) Mix Prints
Don't be afraid to treat our print as a neutral and style it with other print styles. Like plaid, polka dots, snakeskin, or any other style you may have in your closet. 👗
23) Be Original
When pants are comfortable, we want to wear them at all costs, in all situations. One of our (almost philosophical) tips in this article is to be yourself as much as possible. And to create your own style .

24) Choose Red
The leopard beret is another accessory that allows for a casual look. And red remains and will surely remain the most stunning color to pair with our print. Here, the red jeans look great on this young woman. We love it.
25) The Shirt with Leopard Bottom
Another way to make this leopard skirt look more professional is to pair it with a shirt. Here, a light-colored shirt, in a quirky blue, is a perfect match. With white sneakers, it's guaranteed to make a splash. 💁♀️
26) Dare to wear a crop top
Bring a little 90s vibe back into your style by choosing a leopard crop top !
27) Skirt or Dress with a Sweater
A sweater is a sure bet when it comes to pairing a leopard skirt or dress. The sweater obviously works all year round, but as you've probably guessed, this winter it will be your best ally against the cold. ❄️
28) Choose the Printed Coat this Winter
Invest in a leopard jacket or coat to add a little something to your winter wardrobe. Every woman buys herself a coat before winter arrives, on average. This year, you need to take the plunge and invest in your all-leopard coat .
