Our woman&home Digital Fashion Editor Caroline Parr comments, "When it comes to leopard print, it has to be Rixo. From their iconic Kelly skirt to the Milly coat that's flying off the shelves this season, nobody does it better. A shirt dress is a great way to lean into the leopard print trend, and this genius dress can be worn with trainers, boots or heels depending on the occasion. Trust me when I say you'll get plenty of wear from this beauty. And remember, leopard is a neutral so don't be afraid to layer colour or even more prints if you're feeling particularly bold.

Leopard print dresses are not only extremely on-trend, they are also surprisingly easy to style. Opt for classic colour choices such as black or white, or go bold with cherry red. Plus, leather accessories are a great choice with leopard print; for example, wear a leopard print dress with black leather ballet flats, a slouchy handbag, and finish with gold statement jewellery. And for an overlayer, a black blazer is always a failsafe choice that is also certain to elevate your look even more.
