I have always hated leopard print with a passion. It's been everywhere for years and can't be escaped!
However I strangely liked this dress. I love the fit but can't get over it being leopard print. What do others think?
Age 35 and size 8 for reference.

I'm partial to a leopard print so my opinion will usually go the way of 'yay' but this dress is a really nice cut and suits you!

MaydinEssex · 18/04/2023 00:01

Hate leopard print. It's just tacky

Youdoyoubabe · 18/04/2023 00:01

It looks good.

Rainbowshit · 18/04/2023 00:05

Really lovely on you.Iove leopard.

antwacky · 18/04/2023 00:07

It looks really good on you.

Alargeoneplease89 · 18/04/2023 00:08

Love it

CC4712 · 18/04/2023 00:09

The fit is lovely on you, but does it come in another pattern or plain colour? Sorry, I hate faux animal prints too.

Morestrangerthings · 18/04/2023 00:12

Yep it looks good.

I'm always attracted to leopard print but I've found that for me, less is more. I have a cotton leopard print scarf for years and I wear it often.

I have a leopard print midi skirt and it's a lovely print, but I'm sick of it. Too much leopard to wear often.

BreviloquentBastard · 18/04/2023 00:13

I too hate leopard print but that looks really good on you. I say rock it.

KillerSandy · 18/04/2023 00:14

It's a yes from me!

Defiantlynot41 · 18/04/2023 00:15

I like it, it's a really simple unfussy style and it suits you

ComputerWifeKaren · 18/04/2023 00:16

I hate leopard print for myself but it looks lovely on you, you've clearly got the figure for it. Go for it! Flowers

Viviennemary · 18/04/2023 00:23

It's a bit skimpy looking and too low cut IMHO. But it does hang nicely. Overall not keen.

RadiantFem · 18/04/2023 00:55

It’s a yes from me

Appleblum · 18/04/2023 01:11

Nope. I like leopard print but not this one.

TheStrangestTimes · 18/04/2023 01:15

Looks fab, I love it with the black jacket also. It's fun, and perfect for Summer. Wear it and enjoy it OP.

PickleOfAConundrum · 18/04/2023 01:23

I used to be a fan of leopard print but it became very Bet Lynch tbh but the dress you've chosen is absolutely gorgeous and stylish! In no way tacky at all so my recommendation would be excellent choice OP! 👍

This!

Mutabiliss · 18/04/2023 06:37

It looks lovely on you, and most people like leopard print I think? It's not a very Bet Lynch version.

But it does look a bit skimpy on top, like it's probably quite cheap. It doesn't look bad because you have a lovely figure, but maybe there's another slip dress around with a bit more coverage on the side?

muddlingthrou · 18/04/2023 06:54

That is a cute, casual summer dress. It flatters your figure. I'd wear it to the park or a BBQ.

Zone2NorthLondon · 18/04/2023 06:55

Hell yea, with silver sandals. Release your inner Kat Slater

RobertaTheRotund · 18/04/2023 07:05

I'd look horrendous in that, but you look great! The shape is lovely on you and I quite like leopard print. Just call me Bet Lynch 😂

TwoLeftSocksWithHoles · 18/04/2023 07:28

Very nice but do take extra care if you decide to wear the dress and you venture anywhere near lions or hyenas or baboons. An attack by any one of these could rather spoil an evening out.

'The Lion is probably the biggest enemy of the Leopard and a fight to the death will ensue when they come into contact. Hyenas and Baboons have also been known to attack and kill Leopards, in particular the young cubs.'

SocksAndTheCity · 18/04/2023 07:33

I love leopard print, but it has to be all out leopard print rather than just a uniform black pattern on a plain/flat coloured background. It's a no from me.

natleeds007 · 18/04/2023 07:44

I love it, I have a similar dress myself which I dress down with tan flat sandles or dress up with blazer for a meal out. Can I ask where it's from?
