The animal print is already a classic pattern that can be found in every season without losing its appeal.
However, you must use it with caution to avoid appearing unsophisticated. If you are into leopard, zebra, or python prints, keep these tips in mind to wear them elegantly:
1. Avoid exaggeration! That is the most important aspect. Wearing only one, or at most two, items in the same outfit is ideal.
2. You should be aware that this stamp adds volume. Make sure the item you’re wearing isn’t too tight or draws attention to areas of your body that you don’t want to appear larger than they are.
3. Avoid the full look. Wear a few accessories and black shoes if you’re wearing a dress with this print.
4. To be safe, complement a patterned garment with others in neutral colors such as black, white, or beige. If you want to take it a step further and create contrast, the animal print looks great with bright tones, but no more than three different colors in the same outfit.
5. If you think the animal print is too much for you, wear it in accessories such as a bag, belt, or shoes.
6. If you’re going to mix patterns (no more than two!), make sure they share at least one color.
7. Carefully select the stamp size. In general, smaller is more discrete and combinable.
