While there’s certainly something to be said for simple footwear that lets the rest of your outfit do the talking, we can’t resist a statement-making shoe. Great for just about any occasion, they can be paired with sleek, tonal pieces as well as ensembles that feature contrasting prints for an especially bold look.
Animal prints, an enduring trend of the last few seasons, instantly make an outfit more eye-catching. And while zebra print may not be as common as its leopard counterpart, made famous by Christian Dior in 1947, we’re here to tell you that black and white zebra stripes shouldn’t be overlooked.
Seen throughout various fall ’19 collections including Tom Ford, 3.1 Phillip Lim and Khaite, the striking print has been popping up in countless celebrity wardrobes this season. (We’re loving Rihanna’s R13 bucket hat and Irina Shayk’s wild boots). And seeing as the print was also huge in the 70s, 80s and 90s, anything stamped with it will not only spice up your look but will also deliver a retro vibe.
