Forget Black—Celebs and Fashion People Keep Coming Back to This Loud Shoe Trend

As fall sets in, I’ve noticed a rising movement embraced by style enthusiasts and celebrities. Many of my favorite fashion people are embracing the concept that less is more by opting for minimalistic outfits. However, they’re incorporating loud accessories like animal-print shoes to elevate their simple ensembles.

Animal-print footwear—as seen on notable figures like Kate Moss and Rihanna and fashion influencers in Paris and New York—is making a bold statement. Its appeal lies in its capacity to inject a sense of freshness and excitement into any ensemble, making it an excellent way to rejuvenate one’s cold-weather wardrobe. The best part? Fashion people show no bias when it comes to style or print. I’ve spotted everything from Western-inspired cow-print boots and abstract zebra-striped kitten mules to sophisticated embossed-snakeskin sandals and charming leopard-print pumps. This wide array of animal-print footwear showcases its remarkable adaptability to different styles and occasions.

While animal prints may seem daring and somewhat challenging to style, their neutral color palette of brown, black, and white makes them much more versatile than one might think. Regardless of the pattern or shoe style, each can be effortlessly paired with a wide range of garments, including wide-leg pants, baggy jeans, sheer dresses, and sleek pencil skirts.

Furthermore, the sudden resurgence in the popularity of animal-print shoes has prompted footwear brands to explore modern approaches to meet this fashion demand, resulting in new styles that feel contemporary and in line with the fashion landscape of 2024 rather than reminiscent of early 2000s styles.
