It's Official: This Is the Most 2025 Way to Wear Leopard Print
We all still want to dress like it's the '90s.
In case you haven't heard, leopard print is back again for fall after making a major comeback last year. To keep things fresh, there's a chic way to make it look 2025, and Shailene Woodley just displayed it. Woodley just stepped out in NYC wearing leopard-print pants for a fashion event, and the pieces she paired with them proved to be an easy way to make her pants look modern and effortlessly cool. She stuck to the basics, wearing a crisp, plain white T-shirt and black pumps.
The leopard-print trend is much more versatile than you might think. Any basic top and shoes can be mixed and matched easily, as you can see with Woodley's look below. This fall, light layers like button-downs, cardigans, and cashmere sweaters paired with leopard-print pants and pointed-toe shoes would also be very 2025 ways to wear animal print. The fashion crowd isn't going to let this major trend go away anytime soon, and I'm happy about it. If you're into this contemporary take on the animal-print trend, keep scrolling to re-create this outfit and shop similar items that fit your style.
