This fall, leopard is back in fashion. At the latest shows, designers presented collections inspired by the “predatory” theme. The coats in leopard print deserved special attention. At the same time, fashion houses offer not only women's models, but also men's.
What to wear with leopard print
It is worth recognizing that leopard print is one of the most difficult and treacherous. With the wrong wardrobe or a mistake with accessories, it’s easy to turn from a stylish fashionista into a vulgar girl or a freak.
To prevent this from happening, it is enough to follow a few rules from stylists.
A coat of this color is already a challenge in itself, so it is combined only with restrained, laconic things and shades. Here are the rules:
- there should be nothing flashy in the image. Deep cuts, shiny or transparent things are prohibited;
- traditionally, leopard is contraindicated for overweight women;
- requires only high-quality natural fabrics.Since with leopard the line between style and bad taste is very thin, any hint of cheap, low-quality materials immediately devalues and vulgarizes the entire image;
- when choosing the coat itself, you also need to be careful: a similar color looks elegant only with the simplest possible cut, without any complex details;
- There should be only one leopard in the image. Duplicating the print in accessories or other items of clothing is prohibited.
Clothes and colors
A coat of this color goes well with denim. A cropped coat looks especially good with jeans. Color from light blue to blue. It is very important that there are no decorative elements on the jeans. Scuffs and cuts are allowed. The style of jeans can be anything: from skinny to flared.
A good combination with trousers and a white blouse.
Classic black trousers, a sheath dress, a black pencil skirt - the leopard loves simple silhouettes and the absence of flashy decorative elements. Clothes are plain, without prints.
In terms of color, those things that look best are those that have the same color scheme as the leopard: black, white, beige and dark brown.
If you want to add bright colors, you can try combining leopard with different shades of red or blue.
Shoes
When choosing shoes, first of all you need to take into account the model and length of the coat. Stylists advise paying attention to sneakers and brutal men's style shoes (Chelsea boots, motorcycle boots). These shoes look especially good when paired with jeans and a short coat.
But you should give up boots. Shoes should not distract attention.
Pea coats and cropped models will look great with boots and shoes with flat soles or low square heels.
For the color of shoes, the same rules apply as for the rest of clothing: restrained colors (red is a pleasant exception) and no provocative decorative elements.
Accessories
When it comes to headwear, there is a wide choice: from sports caps to hats or scarves. Chunky knitted hats look good, and a red beret will help create a romantic look.
A handbag for such a coat should be:
- small;
- without bright or large fittings;
- the most simple, strict form;
- preferably a black monochromatic color (for bright girls, red can be used).
The ideal option is a small black clutch.
Common mistakes
The most common mistakes that can ruin the entire image:
- mixing animal prints (zebra, tiger and other animals should never intersect with leopard);
- leopard print bag or shoes;
- total look (you can’t wear this print from head to toe);
- polka dots, checks, stripes in clothes or accessories;
Another common mistake is choosing the wrong coat color. When purchasing, you must take into account your color type of appearance. Large spots are more suitable for brunettes, but fair-haired girls are better off choosing a leopard with small and less contrasting spots.
A leopard print coat is an option for brave, confident women who know what they want and know how to achieve it. It guarantees the attention of others. But what kind of attention this will be depends only on the woman herself and her sense of proportion.
