Suddenly, This Cool Dress Trend Is Popping Up All Over the Place
This is the hottest dress trend of 2022, hands down.
Animal prints make a comeback every few years, but right now, zebra print is really having a moment. Over the past few weeks, this pattern has popped up all over our Instagram feeds and the new arrivals sections of our favorite brands, solidifying its trending status.
Once you're aware of this, you'll start noticing that this pattern is currently taking over everything: dresses, accessories, shoes and even jewelry. But the easiest way to add this style to your wardrobe, and make the most of it, is through a brilliant zebra-print dress—and we've tracked down a great selection for you to choose from.
This trend is so easy to style. For daytime, just add a basket bag and sandals.
Dresses make up the backbone of our editors' wardrobes, and there's good reason for it. Ease of styling comes to mind, as a full outfit just requires some shoes and a killer bag. What's more, there's plenty of variation in dress designs, from maxi to mini hem lengths, with exaggerated puff sleeves or thin tie straps, in skin-tight forms or billowing oversized shapes. All in all, opting for a dress is an easy and versatile way to take on new trends.
Zebra print isn't just a daytime pattern.
Fashion aficionados will remember the time when everyone and their sister owned that Réalisation leopard-print skirt, or at least an inspired version of it. The 2022 version seems to be a zebra-print dress, and we don't see it going anywhere anytime soon.
