‘Imagine with a tan on holiday’ shoppers scream about new leopard print co-ord from a beloved supermarket brand
WHEN you think about giving your wardrobe a summer overhaul, your first stop is unlikely to be a supermarket.
But in recent months, we’ve seen the likes of George, Tu and F&F give our favourite fashion stores a run for their money.
In particular, shoppers have been flocking to Tesco for F&F’s Zara dupes and celebrity collaborations.
And the supermarket brand’s latest leopard print co-ord is no different.
Stylish shoppers are racing to their local store to pick up the bandeau and midi skirt combo.
Fashion bible High Street Fashion took to TikTok to alert others to the ensemble.
“It’s beautiful,” they said.
“Imagine with a tan on holiday!”
The account also revealed that the skirt is £18 and the top is £14, making the full outfit a cool £32.
“This outfit is absolutely stunning,” Chloe Alderson gushed.
“I need it in my life.”
“The top looks exactly like my Zara one,” Poppy Eloise added.
Countless shoppers joked that Tesco’s clothing section is “slaying right now” and described its leopard print offering as “lush”.
Katie Shaw revealed that she has already nabbed the skirt and described it as “so flattering”.
The Return of Leopard Print
The leopard print trend comes with bucket loads of history.
From Coronation Street’s iconic barmaid Bet Lynch to Spice Girl Mel B, it has been an iconic look on our screens, runways and the high street for decades.
And thanks to the circular nature of fashion, it has spawned again for 2024.
According to Clearpay, searches for leopard-print coats have soared 54%.
Hottest trends for Spring/Summer 2024
Fabulous' Fashion Editor, Clemmie Fieldsend has shared the biggest trends on the high street and runway this Spring/Summer.
SHORTS
I know, shorts for summer. Groundbreaking. But you’ll be seeing them everywhere this year, from micro hotpants to long, Bermuda styles in denim to tailoring and everything in between they’re a must have for every occasion.
WHITE
White usually goes hand-in-hand with your summer holidays but whether you’re in the UK or abroad you’ll be seeing an abundance of head-to-toe white looks.
The high street is already a, erm, white wash with the trend that includes shoes and accessories.
HIGH SHINE
Beit metallics or sequins, for 2024 sparkle isn’t just for Christmas.
Expect to see shimmering looks at festivals, weddings or even a barbeque in your neighbours back garden teamed with block brights or simple whites.
BAGGY BOTTOMS
Wide leg and loose jeans have gripped our wardrobes from autumn to winter, but as we move into warmer months expect baggy trousers.
From crisp cotton to lightweight linen, fluid trews should have a firm place in your wardrobe.
PUMPS
Ballet pumps and Mary Jane’s have been clawing their way back into our good books for a while now, but for summer they’re looking less ballerina and more beach ready.
Woven styles and mesh textures are hot off the catwalk and onto the high street, think the 2024 jelly shoe.
GO GIRLY
All things romantic and girly are in for spring with sheer fabrics, pastel shades of blue, yellow and pink gripping the runway. Embellished with bows, lace or flowers, most looks should have an element of being hyper ‘girly’.
And if you haven’t been living under a rock, you’ll know that Ganni’s social-media-famous leopard print trousers were a total sell out.
“I’m so getting on board with the leopard trend at the moment,” Fabulous’ Deputy Fashion Editor Abby McHale said.
“It’s a print that really does stand the test of time and always comes back around.
“So, I don’t mind investing in a statement piece I know I can wear for years to come.”
