French actress Catherine Deneuve loves leopard print and has been wearing it since her youth. A similar style for women after 50-60 years old may seem inappropriate, but the point is not in the print, but in its combination with clothes.
At Deneuve, not all leopard images are equally successful. She has worn strange dresses more than once, which would have been more suitable for someone younger and with a different figure. But in a series of her star exits, you can find stylish looks that other women can adapt to their style. We present 6 images of Catherine Deneuve for those who love the leopard and want to wear it correctly and safely.
1. Leopard coat
This coat, minimalist in design, but bright in color and pattern, is the choice for daring women. Deneuve wore it with a black blouse and a pencil skirt that doesn't hide her legs. Beads complement the image, emphasizing its elegance. All details of the outfit are balanced, so even a large leopard pattern does not make the outfit vulgar.
2. Leopard cloak
An image that is very similar to the previous one in its style scheme, but instead of a bright leopard coat, here is a raincoat with a muted predatory print. It is not conspicuous, so the image looks restrained and dignified even with open legs.
3. Leopard Cape
A cape is a comfortable alternative to classic outerwear. Women love capes for the opportunity to hide a wide waist area and diversify the outfit when the weather allows you to wear demi-season outerwear with open arms. The accent print in this set is broken in black, and the red bag draws attention to itself.
4. Leopard blouse
Hiding a flashy leopard piece in a layered look is a smart move for women who don't want to draw too much attention to themselves. In this release, Deneuve is dressed in leather trousers, a leopard print blouse in black and white and a double-breasted coat. The leopard print is covered with outerwear, but the outfit does not lose its expressiveness.
5. Leopard scarf
If you are afraid of leopard dresses and coats, choose accessories with this predatory character. In this stylish outlet at the Saint Laurent show in Paris, Catherine Deneuve shows off a stylish total black (outfit completely in black), which is broken by a bright long leopard scarf. The image, despite its restraint and simplicity, thanks to a bold scarf looks very impressive.
6. Leopard bag
The safest solution for those who want to give a drop of rapacity to their outfit is to choose a leopard print bag. It was the appearance of Catherine Deneuve at the photocall of the Cannes Film Festival, where she again dressed entirely in black, diluted with a leopard handbag from the Roger Vivier brand. The advantage of any bright bag is that it always enlivens, but does not weigh down the image, because it is easy to remove it from sight.
