While this bold animal print is currently making a splash, it’s far from a passing fad. How so? This iconic motif has a rich history and timeless appeal, proving its staying power in wardrobes around the world. As fall approaches, luxury brands including ViX Paula Hermanny are embracing neutral tones, from earthy browns to rich butter yellows. And, of course, leopard print pairs effortlessly with these hues – even deep oxblood red that’s also catching everyone’s attention. Today's blend of timeless motifs with in-season colors reinforces why leopard is one of those prints that remain a versatile and enduring statement choice. Here’s everything you need to know about leopard print and its role in women’s fall fashion trends.

Leopard print has a fascinating fashion history. Its first major runway moment came in the late 1940s, courtesy of designer Christian Dior, who introduced the print, not the fur, to haute couture. Over time, this print gained momentum as celebrities like Marilyn Monroe and Jackie Kennedy showcased it as a symbol of glamor and boldness.

From Hollywood starlets to public figures and pop icons, leopard print became a statement piece, representing both the idea of rebellion with class and sophistication. Its ability to stand the test of time, through decades and shifting trends, makes leopard print a perennial favorite, and this fall, it's making a triumphant return to the forefront of fashion.

These timeless neutrals are likely already in your wardrobe, as they are classic shades that never go out of style. Whether you're wearing a leopard print bikini or a chic animal print leopard dress, it’s about finding balance with the rest of your outfit.

There are many variations of leopard print to choose from. Some prefer the bold, statement-making patterns like our ViX Camu print, while others might opt for softer, more muted versions like our Rosewood print.

What we love most about the leopard print trends is how universally flattering they are. Unlike other patterns like stripes or polka dots that are more suitable for specific body types, leopard print has a way of complimenting everyone.

Whether you’re channeling the vintage vibes of Hollywood glamor or modernizing your look with sleek, fall essentials, leopard print is back and here to stay. Its rich history and versatility make it an indispensable part of any wardrobe.
