If you’ve spent any time in London over the last few months, you would have noticed a sea of leopard print invading the capital as far as the eye can see.
The daring design has been dominating the fashion agenda, much to the delight of Kat Slater types.
Among the ubiquity of leopard print tie front blouses and chic coats, leopard print trousers are solidifying their status as the most sought-after wardrobe essential.
It’s easy to see the appeal of these bold separates. You need only pair them with an oversized tee and white trainers for a casual-chic aesthetic for the day – but add a blazer and it’s decidedly formal.
Accessorize with kitten heels and a French-tucked white shirt for an office-ready look. Throw on a blouse or a crop top in any vibrant colour or design to transform the look for the festival field. With leopard print, the potential is endless and our obsession knows no limits.
It’s not just us. On TikTok, style-savvy creators have flexed their prowess with OOTD and GRWM videos demonstrating the endless pairings of these printed pants. Never forget that leopard print counts as a neutral. You will find 26.6 million posts on the topic with particular favourites from Sezane and Damson Madder.
While you can track the current obsession with leopard print trousers in line with the revival of all things Nineties – Shania Twain’s full look (cape and all) from the 1997 That Don't Impress Me Much music video is our Roman Empire – it’s hard to not to give credit to Ganni.
The Copenhagen label adores a leopard touch. The print heavily features in each new season collection with some notable faux fur coats, faux fur bags with a braided handle and knee-high heeled boots for Resort 2025. The adoration of the brand’s Betzy jeans – which cost £235 – has triggered a flow of high street dupes with tamer price tags.
