Leopard print, once labeled as "too hot" and "too flashy", is now officially back in fashion! This time, leopard print is no longer just a symbol of sexiness, but has also transformed into a fashion code for Y2K, street mix and modern retro. Whether you are a leopard print novice or a veteran leopard fan, this article will show you the latest ways to wear leopard print!

Leopard print is one of the representative elements of millennial retro style

When it comes to leopard print, it can be said to be one of the most controversial elements in the fashion circle. Some people think that it is very aura, and once they put it on, they will immediately turn into a mature woman; some people are afraid of leopard print from the bottom of their hearts, thinking that it is tacky and difficult to control, and if they are not careful, they will feel like a "nouveau riche"...

But the good news is that there are now a lot more leopard print items to choose from, and using it in a small area has become a little trick to add fashion points. Whether it is a scarf, shoes, bag or hair band, it can be cleverly embellished and will not be picky about people or make mistakes. Large-area items such as leopard print shirts or long skirts can easily transform into high-end outfits when paired with solid coats or sweaters in autumn and winter. They are just the right amount of boldness to make you effortlessly fashionable.

Leopard print has a longer history than you might think. It can be traced back to ancient Egypt, when people made a living by hunting and wore real leopard skins. Since leopard skin is not easy to obtain, only royal nobles can wear it. The Egyptian princess in the picture below is one of the classic representatives.

Fast forward to the 1920s and 1930s, when leopard print was still a symbol of high society and was not very popular. But in the 1940s, leopard print finally entered the fashion circle and became a fashion darling. The key moment came from Dior's first fashion show in 1947. Although it is no longer uncommon to see leopard print items on the Dior runway now, you should know that as early as that debut show, Christian Dior boldly allowed leopard print to appear on the runway. He was also the first designer to use leopard print as a "print design" rather than a "fur material".

Behind this, there is the influence of a woman - Mitzah Bricard, Mr. Dior's muse. She is responsible for the design of Dior's hats and accessories. She has a deep love for leopard print and wears a leopard print scarf around her wrist almost every day (supposedly to cover her scars). Dior once described her in his autobiography: "She is one of the few women in the world who lives for elegance." (Madame Bricard is one of the rare people for whom elegance is their sole reason for living .)

It is suitable for those who want to go for a personalized route or have a little more "drama" in their styling. When matching, it is recommended to keep the lower body simple, such as jeans or black trousers, which will give the overall look a more balanced feel and will be less likely to go wrong.
