VALLEY knows there is always room for a comeback in the fashion world. 2024 has been a big year for a trendy print: cheetah. The cheetah print is bold and makes a statement. When someone wears cheetah, they are the main character.
However, cheetah prints come and go in waves. One moment, they are the hottest trend; the next, they can be seen as cheap or unstylish. Luckily, cheetah print is very much in right now, and all of the stores have caught onto this trend. Let’s take a look at some new statement pieces college students can buy to elevate their going-out looks and ride the cheetah print wave.
Urban Outfitters
Urban Outfitters has been coming in strong with daring cheetah-print pieces. They offer everything cheetah, from going-out tops to bodysuits, jackets, long sleeves, purses and even shoes.
White Fox
White Fox has also hopped on the bandwagon, releasing a variety of cheetah print options. They have a selection of cheetah print dresses to enhance any going-out look.
Edikted
Edikted is a well-known store for college students looking for the trendiest items at decent prices. Of course, Edikted couldn’t pass up the opportunity to drop a whole line of cheetah print clothing. They offer everything from going-out sets to skirts, dresses and more. The standout item in this collection is the viral cheetah shorts, as seen on TikTok.
Accessories and More
Not only is cheetah making a comeback in clothing, but cheetah nails have also been trending on TikTok. It’s a popular opinion that cheetah looks best with red. These trendy red and cheetah-inspired nails have been making people switch from their basic manicures to something a little more daring.
Accessories complete the outfit. Cheetah purses are the best way to take a basic outfit from boring to chic. A simple outfit paired with a fun purse is a recipe for perfection. Cheetah is such a bold print, and when worn in small doses—like a purse—it adds tremendous value.
Purses can be expensive, but even as college students, accessories are essential. SHEIN has a large variety of cheetah print purses for those looking to add excitement to their outfits at a reasonable price.
A Daring Print For All
Cheetah print may be outside some people’s comfort zones, but it’s definitely a fun way to spice up an outfit. It radiates confidence and cool-girl energy. Even though it may not always be in style, it’s known to make a big splash. Right now is the moment, so grab pieces while they are still being sold in stores—who knows, in a few years, it could again pop up as the next big thing.
