A number of fashion labels have also begun championing animal print this year:
- LA-based concept store Lisa Says Gah, which released a collection of cow print pieces
- Stine Goya, who’s made zebra prints a staple of their Spring/Summer 2021 collection
Zebra Print
As we mentioned earlier, the Zebra print from Stine Goya shows how popular this style is right now, especially true when it comes to footwear. Marc Fisher x Elizabeth Sulcer have also collaborated on a Zebra print boot, with similar designs from The Attico, Isabel Marant, and Khaite. This Zebra print sandal from VANELi is perfect for your summer attire. The print itself is understated enough that it can fit with any outfit, but it still adds a little wild streak to whatever you’re wearing.
Leopard Print Shoes
With the right pair of leopard print boots, women (and men) can add an extra pop of wild to their outfit. The print looks great on shoe types of every kind, and is an excellent choice this season. The best lines of leopard print shoes for women include the following:- Leopard Print Boots: VANELi Zeno
- Leopard Print Flats: VANELi Fc-313
- Leopard Print Loafers: VANELi Albion
- Metallic Leopard Print: VANELi Yarina
Crocodile Shoes
The crocodile effect has been a favorite from the runway to the Instagram trend. Crocodile shoes are no exception. Crocodile shoes are elevated and elegant, but you don’t need massive dollars to invest in a few key pieces. Mock-croc shoes are a fraction of the real deal, and don’t require any animal harm. The VANELi Alanna or Jimmy are great examples of sensible loafers that can pair with a number of different outfits, while still being a fashion-forward addition to your look.
How to Pair Animal Print Shoes with Clothing
Having a pop of animal print is chic, but wearing animal print shoes with an animal print top and carrying an animal print shirt is just overkill. So follow the one animal rule: just wear one thing at a time. So if you’re wearing animal print shoes, then that should be the only animal print item in your outfit. Also, make sure you’re wearing solid colors so the print is the main focus. You don’t want a bunch of patterns that clash. Neutrals like white, black, brown, khaki, camel, or taupe are best, although if you want to go bold, red, emerald green, orange, and denim are also striking choices. Finally, don’t over-complicate the look with a bunch of glitzy jewelry or accessories. Your accessories should complement the look, not compete for attention.
