Am I alone in really disliking animal print?

[escargot]

I really, really dislike it. I'm happy to see it on others but I just can't see myself in it. I got given a lovely Lola Rose scarf for my birthday but it's an animal print design so I'll never wear it.

Its dreadful, reminds me of the woman in the bed on the big breakfast. Cheap and nasty, even just accessories.

I like a very subtle leopard print or snake print - not many that pass the test but I do like some. But I hate zebra, cow print, and anything with animals on.

I do
Look 80 if that helps

I have two leopard print scarves - one browns, one teal/navy; one snakeskin scarf, two navy/black Dalmatian print dresses (one day, one party), snakeskin flats and leopard flats.

So, er, not my thread then Am a by shocked at the genuine judginess of losing someone's respect for wearing it though, eek!

Oh and I'm only 31!

I really don't like it at all.

Is this a good time to admit that I don't like skull print either? Makes me feel a bit ill.

I luffs it, though only stick to one print per outfit leopard print pants on outside plain leggings etc

on a really really cool vintage-style wearing person it looks great - on me it would look dreadful

I have never owned one bit of animal print. I dislike it so.

I had a horrible cow roommate at uni who LOVED animal prints, especially a zebra print paired with the most lurid shade of hot pink. She put up a shower curtain in this combination in our shared bathroom. Every morning, I considered sharpening my toothbrush into a shiv to start slashing at it.

Totally with the antis. I have an almost physical reaction to it. Odd.

My ex gave me some leopard print leggings. Never worn them. Tacky!

Do have a beautiful fake fur snow leopard coat tho...

I bought a lovely animal print cardigan and when I put it on it looked like trying too hard and made me look old

I hate skull prints too gastrognome.

I like it a lot as long as it's classy (eg I have a lovely L K Bennett scarf in dark navy and teal and another by Lily and Lionel). Don't like bright orange or yellow versions.

Love snake print - again in subtle greys and taupes.

But hate skull prints - never did like them and now they really have been done to death!

This is pretty much the only way I'd wear it. Maybe. But I'm not PJ Harvey

I think I'd wear it ironically like most of the stuff I wear

I hate animal prints. They are just nasty, tacky and completely without class. And this from someone who loves Crocs.

When I found out the Mumsnet Scarf was a leopard print monstrosity I died a little inside.

I'm so happy to see this thread! I really don't like it either- on me anyway, I don't care what other people wear.

I have yet to see anyone in RL look decent in animal print.

I think the one that made me shudder was a woman wearing a leopard print onesie with Uggs and one of those bear ears hats.

Think there's a huge difference between wearing it all over and on subtle accessories.

Wow! I feel thoroughly vindicated in bringing up the subject seeing all these new posters!

I hate skull prints too. Ick.

plum you don't look a day over 75 ;)

Sorry - but I luffs it - but only if it is tastefully done. Don't like the ott versions of it. I noticed Zara have crocodile pattern trousers in their range - now that's not something you see every day.

I love it in small doses.

I assume the Mumsnet scarf is the rip-off LV one? I had that before I was on Mumsnet so I am just guessing. It is very flattering colour-wise for me, and goes with lots, if you wear black or grey with tan shoes/bag. I haven't worn it this winter however.
