Women’s Travel Wear

Why should women incorporate the trendy animal print look? Well, it’s flattering, it hides dirt, it camouflages fat and bulges, and it’s cute and fun. Plus darker shades like leopard go so well with basic black.


Leopard Print Trench Coat

A tan trench coat is elegant and classic, but an animal print trench coat is so much better for travel. If the print is dark enough, a chick can spill airport coffee on it, and it won’t really show. Think about that.

And, what is more elegant than a leopard print coat over a black cashmere turtleneck and black slacks or black jeans? This is a look that works from London to Melbourne to China and back. For quick escapes, a gal can tuck her messy hair up into a cashmere beret and be off for the weekend in 5 minutes. No makeup, no problem. Add dark sunglasses.

The brown and black shades are really so flattering to most complexions. And hey, animal prints are sexy. But, don't overdo the leopard print outfit.



Zebra Print Dresses

A giraffe or zebra print dress can be a lot of fun. While leopard style and cheetah looks are classic, giraffe and zebra step out of the box. Black and white is hip, though fair types may have more problems pulling off this trend, because zebra flair is usually better for gals with silver / white or black tresses. It can work for almost anyone, but a lot depends on the size of the print and the hues and tones in the fabric.

Save the pink animal prints for Barbie or girls who just stopped playing with dolls. Fashionistas with big-time cash may be able to pull off this look, when it’s from a true couture house, but regular Boomer Chicks have to wear purple zebra or pink giraffe with an attitude and that attitude takes a while to perfect. Most of the time, animal / sequin combos are similarly difficult, though they can rock after dark.

Unusual colors aren’t impossible, but they sometimes read like trailer trash, if not done right. Of course, there are the obvious exceptions to this rule, like Diane von Furstenburg dresses. DVF and a very few other brands somehow circumvent common logic and bring chic offbeat items to the average gal.

An Animal Print Wrap Dress

The best of all worlds, for travel, is probably a wrap dress in an animal print. It will fit on fat days and skinny days. It won’t show dirt like a solid fabric. It’s a truly hip look. And, this piece multitasks from bathrobe to beach cover up.
