In the fashion world, leopard print is often referred to as a neutral. This may seem a bit counterintuitive—the print certainly isn’t shy—but as far as patterns go, leopard is surprisingly versatile. It’s a print that’s able to adapt to the outfit and personality of its wearer. We’ve seen leopard look supremely cool on rock royalty, à la Debbie Harry; prim and polished on Jackie O in the 60s, and even more mod on British It girls in the early aughts. Lately, it seems like leopard print is having quite the resurgence—particularly in outerwear.
