Trend of the week: Heed the call of the wild

Inspiration

The style Serengeti continues to embrace animal prints proving a fashionable leopard never changes her spots.

This season see a new twist as Giambattista Valli, Thakoon and Burberry Prorsum give the prim ladylike trend a wild cat edge. Purrrfect!

Style Notes

* Tame the trend by focusing on one piece: a leopard print skirt paired with sling back heels and an oversized car coat – ladylike 2.0.

* Try a detachable leopard print collar for a low-commitment take on the trend.

* Primary colours like red and blue offer a fresh approach to the print.

* Feeling brave? Work the print head-to-toe like Diane von Furstenberg. Simply add metallic accents for extra sheen.
