Dolce & Gabbana Leopard Print: Bags, Shoes and How to Wear It
Leopard is the Dolce & Gabbana signature print, as much a part of the house as black lace and the crossed DG. The house calls it leo, and treats it as a neutral: it shows up on bags, boots, ballet flats, sneakers and slingbacks every season. Luxury Handbags carries 26 leopard shoes and bags from USD 820 to USD 6,380, with a median of USD 2,090. For the other prints read the Dolce & Gabbana print edit; for every bag, the bags guide.
Quick answer: Leopard, called leo by the house, is a Dolce & Gabbana signature it makes every season. At Luxury Handbags 26 leopard shoes and bags cost USD 820 to USD 6,380, median USD 2,090. Wear one leopard piece per outfit, as a neutral.

Why leopard works as a neutral
Leopard is brown, black and gold, which are the colours of most wardrobes. That is why a leopard shoe goes with a black dress, blue jeans, a camel coat and a white shirt. The rule is one leopard piece per outfit: a leopard bag with leopard shoes reads as costume.
How to wear it
- Leopard slingbacks with a black suit.
- Leopard ballet flats with straight jeans and a white shirt.
- A leopard Sicily with a camel coat.
- Leopard boots with a black knit dress.
