Leopard philosophy is the most beautiful point

Leading Word: The Spring-Summer Fashion Week 2011 is sending a clear message that leopard print will continue to dominate the runways, even as we move into the autumn and winter seasons. If you're looking to stay on top of the latest trends, take a closer look at how celebrities are embracing the leopard philosophy—subtlety and style in perfect balance.

Giuseppe Zanotti Leopard Shoes

These eye-catching leopard shoes from Giuseppe Zanotti’s 2010 Autumn-Winter collection are a perfect example of how to wear the pattern with confidence. Paired with orange socks and matching nail polish, they strike just the right balance—bold but not overwhelming.

Rihanna: Less Is More

Rihanna has always believed in the power of minimalism. Last weekend in London, she turned heads in a striking outfit: a wide tuxedo suit, fedora, rockstar sunglasses, leopard print knee socks, and Christian Louboutin heels. She didn’t need pants—this look was effortlessly chic. It brought back memories of Julia Roberts in "Pretty Woman," and it's hard to imagine anyone pulling it off better than her.

Kim Kardashian: Love Bags More Than Leopard

Earlier that week, socialite Kim Kardashian made headlines for her shopping spree at the Hermes Paris boutique. She reportedly bought seven Birkin bags, each valued at around $10,000. But what caught our attention was her choice of accessories—she continued to embrace the “large sexy beauty” look with a simple black and white outfit, topped off with a bright leopard print handbag. Her clutch, the Christian Louboutin Kathena Leopard Clutch, is a standout piece that proves she knows how to make an impression.

Abbey Lee's Leopard Print Fendi Tote

Abbey Lee Kershaw’s leopard print Fendi tote is more than just a bag—it’s a statement. Her overall look, from the white feather dress to the Fendi Peekaboo Fur Tote, brings to mind some of her most iconic campaigns. The leopard print bag has been spotted on several high-profile figures lately, including Coleen Rooney and Bianca Brandolini D’Adda, proving it’s one of the season’s must-have pieces.
