STYLE SMALL PRINT:It could be argued that it was Phoebe Philo, at the helm of Chloe, who put snakeprint on the fash pack's collective radar.
Others will say it wasMiuccia Prada, using it to adorn boots, handbags and an assortment of shapes and sizes. Either way, it’s the season’s hottest print. Pair yours with leather and denim for a playful take, and remember: this trend won’t last, so don’t break the bank buying into it. Go for fun accents rather than full-on reptilian.
Topshop’s gold skinny jeans in a snake print (€76) may seem hard to carry off, but if in doubt team with a black tee, black heels and a black jacket. All of a sudden it doesn’t seem so scary.
Team skinny jeans and heels with this Zara blazer (€59.95) for daytime. By night it works great with a little black dress and a bright lip colour.
This tiered dress (€165) from French Connection is a more ladylike interpretation. Wear with opaques and
boots for daytime,or with black or gold heels for night. Pare it back with a black cardigan, or ramp it up with sequins and metallics.
This Marks & Spencer’s number (€120) won’t have you blending into the background, but then, where’s the fun in that? Wear with opaque tights and boots for a boho look or with bare legs and stilettos for glamour.
New Look’s ankle boot (€37.99) is the cheat’s way of incorporating snake print into your everyday wardrobe, and the chunky heel channels this season’s 1970s vibe.
