Leopard Print Is Back and We’re Thrilled
Long live leopard print.
Lanvin/Launchmetrics Spotlight
On the prowl for a new print to liven up your wardrobe? Cease your search, because leopard print is back in style.
Sartorially speaking, leopard print has been perceived as low-brow, overtly sexual and–on the other end of the pendulum–reserved for the rich and famous. Now, it’s shaping up to be the trend you’ll spot everywhere, on everyone.

The feline-inspired look has been on the up for some time now. In the fall, Adidas x Wales Bonner released a new iteration of the Samba sneakers in the leopard print “Leo” colourway. Earlier this month, Rihanna was spotted in Aspen wearing a floor-grazing leopard coat. And we would be remiss not to mention the trending “mob wife” aesthetic—which emulates the signature style of mafia matriarchs in all their leopard print-loving glory. All roads lead to leopard, it seems.
From faux fur purses to cat-eyed sunglasses, we present seven purrfectly on-trend leopard patterned pieces to help usher in the return of this fierce print.
Beige Animalier Rhinestone 'B' Monogram Pin Bag, Blumarine
Leopard print and faux fur? We’ve been spoiled by Blumarine. Don’t be fooled by its fuzzy texture; this top-handle purse goes with virtually everything. And the crystal cut ‘B’ rhinestone detail adds just the right amount of bling to the bag.
Price: $585
Felda Dress, Reformation
The perfect balance between form-fitting and flow-y, Reformation’s Felda Dress in “Leo” is a dream. Available in sizes 0-24 and additional petite sizing, this subtly sexy gown was truly made for everyone to wear.
Price: $398
Lost Days Sunglasses, Le Specs
Sure, you could pick up any old pair of leopard print sunglasses to keep up with this trend, but a leopard-patterned pair with a cat eye shape to match? That’s peak feline energy.
Price: $72.90
Colson Wellington Leopard-Print Sandal, Ralph Lauren Collection
Put your best foot forward with these spotted heels from Ralph Lauren’s Wellington collection. To achieve the leopard look, the fabric (haircalf, FYI) is shaved, dyed and printed to create a fur-like effect. Staying true to classic heritage Ralph Lauren codes, this strappy sandal also features an iconic stirrup buckle in a polished gold finish.
Price: $770
Case Card in Leopard Print, Saint Laurent Paris
Not to encourage bad spending habits or anything, but this card case from Saint Laurent Paris deserves to be seen. With its dark-hued leopard print and the Saint Laurent Paris signature embossed on the front, you won’t be able to resist showing this baby off. And with five card slots, it’s practical, too.
Price: $455
Molly Plunge Underwire Bra, Agent Provocateur
Live out your ultimate feline fantasies clad in this balcony-cut style bra from Agent Provocateur. Featuring padded cups with hand-cut lace and silk-satin adjustable straps, this leopard-patterned bra is as comfortable as it is sexy. Whether you want to wear it as true lingerie or as an underwear as outerwear statement piece, it’s sure to serve you well.
Price: $200
