The leopard print trend is firmly back for 2024 and we couldn't be more excited. Endlessly versatile and easy to slot into all types of capsule wardrobe, it is a pattern that everyone needs in their rotation.
Maximalism is a spring/summer fashion trend 2024 to watch, and nothing sums up sophisticated statement dressing quite like leopard print. Associated with fashion icons such as Kate Moss and 'Scary Spice' Mel C, it is one of the most stylish prints out there.

To ease yourself into the look, invest in one leopard print piece and style it with your spring capsule wardrobe essentials as we head towards sunnier weather.
