Now that summer is almost here and our calendars are brimming with social activities, it’s high time we let our wardrobes have a little more fun. Sporting a playful, ’90s-inspired leopard-print minidress, Simone Ashley did just that during a recent trip to the South of France.
With a distinctly ’90s silhouette, Ashley’s figure-hugging, strappy mini dress was expertly accessorized with a sleek shoulder bag, open-toe mules and black cat-eye sunglasses for a glamorous, summer-ready look seeped in retro charm. Looking past the white, soft yellow, and pale blue dresses that are everywhere right now, Ashley chose to back the leopard-print trend that’s been growing in popularity for months.
Of course, the print has been in circulation for decades, but the animal-print pieces we’re seeing right now feel simultaneously fresh and familiar, making the pattern a natural choice if you’re hoping to add something statement to your wardrobe that you already know will stand the test of time.
Having seen the leopard-print trend across London’s streets in the form of jackets, jeans, and shoes all spring, it’s now dresses that are getting a big-cat makeover. After months of reacquainting themselves with the style, I know London fashion people will pounce on the style.
