In late 2024, leopard print became a very popular print to wear. From shoes to statement coats, leopard print was taking over fashion. There are many ways you can wear such a timeless print and many reasons why this print is still in style. The leopard print started becoming wildly popular in the early twentieth century, particularly in the 1930s. It has an association with wealth and luxury with the print being used by many designers like Christian Dior who featured it in his collections, including his first show in 1947. Another person that contributed to popularizing the print was Jackie Kennedy.
