Ladies cashmere jumpers may tone down leopard prints

03/09/2010

A ladies cashmere jumper may be just the thing to tone down garments with a leopard-print style.

According to Shelly Vella, fashion director at Cosmopolitan, leopard print is a favourite style that comes back year after year.

The coming season will see it really hit the fashion world and high-end designers featured the look on the catwalks of their winter collections.

But those who do not want to go over the top could consider adding an item of wool knitwear to the ensemble.

"In my opinion head-to-toe is a little bit too much Bet Lynch. It's best to choose one piece and work that well, or maybe a bag and a pair of shoes with something," Ms Vella suggests.

A ladies cashmere jumper might allow women to achieve this trend, as it could be teamed with a leopard-print belt and shoes to suit the current fashion.

Purchasing the woollen item in beige or neutral may be a wise move, as camel is set to be another hit during the coming months.
