Why leopard works as a neutral
Leopard mixes browns, blacks and golds, so it sits comfortably with almost every colour already in a winter wardrobe. Treat it like camel: wear it over black, over denim, over cream. The only rule is one print at a time.
How to wear a leopard coat
- Over all black: knit, trousers, boots. The cleanest version.
- Over denim and a white T-shirt, with loafers, for weekends.
- Over a slip dress in chocolate brown for evening.
