Leopard-Print Jeans Are Taking Over This Fall—Shop Our Favorites

Hope you’re ready to get wild this fall. Leopard print is back in the conversation—especially leopard jeans, which are the trend du jour. While we’ve seen the pattern featured on the runways of designer brands including Dior, Versace, and Isabel Marant, it’s not just taking over the catwalks. Jennifer Lawrence, Gisele Bündchen, and Hailey Bieber have all been spotted (see what we did there?) in the print, and we noticed back in May that leopard shoes were starting to take over street style. If your FYP is anything like ours, it’s been all over your TikTok feed as well.

If you’re looking to add a piece to your capsule wardrobe, we’ve got one word for you: denim. Tons of retailers just dropped these trendy jeans, and they’re easier to style than you might think—but more on that later. Below, shop the best leopard-print jeans, dresses, shoes, tops, jackets, you name it, that our editors are eyeing for autumn.

Some of our favorite leopard-print pieces

Best leopard-print jeans

Love the baggy-jeans look? Not ready to abandon your skinny jeans? Want to show off your new fall boots with a cropped cut? Whatever denim fit and cut you prefer, there’s bound to be a pair out there for you. They’re easy to pair with a black top or blazer, or you can grab a matching leopard-print top for a maximalist look.

Best leopard-print tops

Is it just me, or are these leopard-print tops giving “your friend’s cool mom”? These stylish tops are easy to incorporate into your wardrobe, whether you’re headed to the office or out for date night. Pair these with a simple pair of blue or black jeans and simple jewelry for a model-off-duty look à la Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy, a famed lover of the print.

Best leopard-print dresses

These eye-catching dresses will have you feline fine. (Sorry, we had to.) They are are playful, feminine, and downright sexy. You could wear these midi-dresses with a pair of mesh ballet flats for an on-trend look or white sneakers for a more casual vibe. If you’re looking for your new going-out dress, the Reformation number below is for you.

Best leopard-print bags

If you’re looking for a subtle way to wear leopard print, try one of these trendy bags. From utilitarian totes that can hold everything to sleek, event-worthy clutches with an understated print, these bags make it easy to get in on the look. Amazon has plenty of budget-friendly picks; Nordstrom, Shopbop, and Free People also have gorgeous options at various price points.

Best leopard-print outerwear

If you’re not ready to let go of last winter’s mob-wife aesthetic, we feel you. Add a lush leopard-print coat to your closet to keep the trend going. Grab a party-ready one with just a bit of shimmer, a structured one that’s ready for work or play, a casual bomber jacket, or a classic faux fur pick that’ll keep you cozy all season.

Best leopard-print shoes

Leopard-print shoes are an elegant and understated way to wear the trend. Sleek Mary Jane flats or kitten heels immediately elevate any look. For a little more drama, look for something with a unique detail or silhouette; we love the oversized buckles on this Steve Madden pair.

How to style leopard print

Leopard print can be tricky to style. It’s easy to feel as though this undeniably bold print is overwhelming the rest of your look. Make it more approachable by choosing just one spotted piece and keeping the rest of your look super simple. (Think a leopard-print top with a pair of straight-leg jeans and a leather jacket or blazer.)

If you’re opting for the leopard-print jeans trend, wear them with a pair of understated ballet flats and simple gold jewelry; in general, we’d avoid oversized or flashy jewelry with leopard print so the jeans have space to shine. You can also pair leopard-print items with rich autumnal colors, like hunter green or deep burgundy, for a look that feels classic and interesting.

Another subtle way approac is to a leopard-print pair of shoes or a bag to your everyday outfit. These smaller pieces don’t necessarily announce themselves to the room as soon as you walk in, but they’re still plenty eye-catching. If you’re the type who likes to dip your toes in before fully going in on a trend, this is the approach for you.

And if your personal style is already playful and maximalist, get bold with it. Why not pair your leopard-print coat with a matching dress or trousers? Wear that flirty animal print top with a bright red lip or a dramatic skirt. Get some sequins in the mix! Life’s too short to not have fun with your personal style.
