5 Things Everyone in Paris Is Wearing Right Now
What goes around comes back around, and French fashion is certainly no exception to fashion’s cyclical nature. “In 2024, Paris has once again been captivated by leopard print,” says Argenson. While we here in the states mark the return and craze of animal prints to the mob wife aesthetic, the French afford its revival a slightly more sophisticated genesis. “Like leather and denim, leopard print has remained timeless, symbolizing elegance since Christian Dior’s 1947 show and later becoming a rebellious emblem for subcultures. Fashion houses and designers have reinterpreted it on everything, from sheer dresses and maxi coats to tights and shoes,” Argenson explains. If you want to wear it like the French, I suggest sticking to one piece that’s leopard print and think of it as your statement piece, whether it’s a fur coat or a leopard print silk skirt. Let the print speak for itself and incorporate those timeless, French basics to ground the look.
