Animal print garments. How to wear them.

This fall, fashion’s feeling feline with a taste for wild prints. Leopard print is adorning everything from coats, to clutches and moccasins adding an animal edge to your new season wardrobe.

The easiest way to work something bold like animal prints into a look is with accessories. Accenting a simple suit or shift dress with a snakeskin-embossed heel can add a lot of personality to a look. Another easy add-on is eyewear. Fashion has long embraced leather detailing, but this season we’re seeing some really fun python frames.

There’s such a ’70s-glam feel about them.  Jewelry is also a great way to bring in some wild-inspired energy to your ensemble. Molded metal scales, feathers, and talon motifs get the point across in a small, but impactful way.

Consider these accessories to be an investment. Exotics can sometimes come with a steeper price point, but they will prove to be wardrobe essentials for years to come.

Givenchy Haute Couture Paris Spring / Summer 2011

Japa­nese hel­mets, Japa­nese motifs and many feat­hers. This is the star­ting point of Ricardo for his haute couture collec­tion for spring / sum­mer 2011. This collec­tion was also shown with a pre­sen­ta­tion of selec­ted media and top clients, as he did in his last collec­tion. Unlike last year, which outli­ned the shape of the body and stron­gly remi­nis­cent of embroi­dery pecu­liar ske­le­tons, the cra­nes in this collec­tion are in the fore­ground. Beau­ti­ful appli­ques and beads depict pain­tings of beau­ti­ful dres­ses with motifs of birds, and some of the dres­ses were cove­red with feat­hers. The lovely hats were made by Phi­lip Tracy.
