The hot girls are wearing animal prints—here's how to style them

Ah, animal prints. Beloved by fashion girls of all ages and basically a rite of passage at this point. You either wore it, or did your best to stay clear of it (and maybe failed). Last year, we saw leopard prints ruling the streets and Pinterest boards—worn as casual pants or flowy skirts, giving the print a softer, girl-next-door spin. But this year, the spread is expanding into a full-fledged wildlife fever dream. On top of leopard, black-and-white zebra stripes have joined the mix, and even snakeskin is back—showing up in fun colourways and exciting silhouettes.
And the best part? The myriad range of styling possibilities—now that the print pool's grown, the way they're being worn has also loosened up. Pop princess Dua Lipa recently attended the Monaco F1 Grand Prix in a yellow leopard print top from Coperni, layered under a dark jacket—putting an edgy motorsport spin on the classic. Meanwhile, K-pop superstar Lisa caused a stir with her snakeskin mini dress in the teaser images for her collaboration with Maroon 5. The audacious print also made its way to the stage, with Tate McRae recently performing at Pinkpop in a blue snakeskin matching set. And the Katseye girls are no strangers to the trend either—with Lara showing up in a hot pink leopard mini dress, and Megan in a layered mini skirt mixing leopard with hot pink zebra stripes.

And these are just a few of the endless ways to wear them. Whether you're going casual, remixing prints, or slipping into something loud and directional, there's always room to experiment. And if full looks still feel a little daunting, accessories are the perfect entry point—consider a printed scarf or even a carryall for a quieter kind of roar.
Below, see Vogue 's take on how to wear the punchy print this season—whether you're easing into the look or embracing full fever dream mode. @dualipa
