Is leopard print a bit ‘over’

I know leopard print is a classic that will never truest die. But it’s had a bit a ‘moment’ lately - do you think it has got a bit over-exposed and will look a bit old-hat soon. Or will it live on?

I’m toying with the idea of investing in some leopard print items but they’re things i’ll want to be wearing in years to come, not one season wonders. Will I regret it?

It’s over. It was briefly revived in an ironic way but it’s definitely not cool anymore.

Luvs me a bit of leopard print. I've got traditional yellow shirt, blue top which I adore and also a grey skirt. I find it super versatile.

I think it is more an autumn winter look but I would still wear a belt or shoes at other times of year.

No its a hardly perennial of fashion.

Makes me think of Alabama Worley from True Romance on anybody gorgeous and blonde...

"I can’t help but think of Eastenders when anyone mentions leopard print."

It makes me think of Bet Lynch from Corrie.
I really don't agree that it's a classic. It sends completely different signals when it's not in fashion.
