Cheetah print has a reputation for being flirty and fun, but did you know it’s equally classy and sophisticated?
During the autumn season, I find myself reaching for more leopard and cheetah prints than at any other time of year. Maybe it’s because they’re made with darker colors or maybe it’s just a fun print – but either way, I love to find opportunities to dress them up!
This cheetah print midi skirt is an excellent item to have because it can be worn in many different ways. While I could easily pair it with a graphic tee, leather jacket, and sneakers – I wanted to show how it would be appropriate for the office or for a nice date night as well!

cheetah print midi skirt c/o Chicwish | black turtleneck | black loafers | similar quilted crossbody bag | similar gold layered necklace
The easiest way to keep cheetah print looking chic is to stay simple.
Pair the wild pattern with tones that are similar or the same. I chose black because it’s practically foolproof. I tucked a classic black turtleneck into the skirt and wore a pair of black loafers. This outfit is nothing extraordinary, but it’s timeless and comfortable. Since the skirt is calf-length, and I chose close-toed shoes and a higher-neck top, it’s totally appropriate for the office. It’s also great for a nicer date night. If you’re wanting to dress it up even further, swap the flats for a patent pump and you’re sure to impress!
If you thought cheetah print couldn’t be classy, hopefully, I’ve changed your mind!

Becca @ The LDN Lifestyle says
I LOVE leopard print and always have done! I definitely agree that it needs to go with neutral colours and understated accessories – let the leopard print do the talking. I would definitely wear the skirt (probably with a beige roll neck and chunky boots)! Becca x

I love the skirt! Its so pretty for fall and looks amazing with the black top! really loving the print!
Jennifer Prince says
Ah! That skirt is so perfect. The length, the flowy-ness. I think that letting it take center stage and setting it off with black is so on point!
Lucy says
I absolutely adore this outfit Stephanie! It’s the perfect outfit for Fall and I love the skirt, I’ve always loved the cheetah/leopard print since it came back as a trend and I do love wearing that particular print all year round! x

I think a cheetah print is really well suited for fall! It’s dark, but not SUPER dark – it’s the perfect thing to add a bit of brightness to this outfit that you have styled so well 😍 I adore this skirt length too! I’m also so jealous that tiny 5ft me can’t wear skirts like this 😩
Sarah Lindner says
I have a weak spot for all things leopard and cheetah print and I love this skirt! The longer length is perfect for fall to wear with taller boots when it gets colder too! xoxo, Sarah
Nicole Flint says
I love cheetah print for Fall! A fun way to add prints to the colder season. This skirt is beautiful!!!
Becky says
I love this! I used to think animal prints were tacky but then I saw all the great ways they can be styled and I love them. I have a cheetah print tank top that I’m thinking I will adjust for fall – maybe with jeans or black pants and a black cardigan. I also have a white leopard print skirt about this length so I could do something very similar to your look!
Lizzie says
What aa gorgeous outfit! This is absolutely classy! You did an amazing job styling it. It makes me want a leopard skirt! I don’t have much leopard print but I have a leopard faux fur coat that I love!!

I agree, the Cheetah print midi is so versatile. I purchased one summer last year. Wore it with a tank in summer, threw on a cardi in fall & then a long sleeve or a leather jacket in winter. Such a great skirt.

I crack up because when I was young cheetah print was considered exotic in like a trashy way? Where i’m from anyway. But now, cheetah print is so quintessential in wardrobes! We won’t talk about my large collection 🙂

Caitlin says
Such a perfect pattern for fall and so many ways to wear it! Love this look!
Deborah says
Interesting! I actually thought that cheetah print was more of a polka dot while leopards had the circular pattern with dots inside? Either way, SUPER cute skirt and GREAT styling ideas! I’ve only ever worn this print on my shoes and have never gone all-out with a skirt but you’re really inspiring me!
Candace Hampton says
That skirt is amazingly chic. The length is SO sophisticated and classy. The print itself is the perfect size – not too busy and not too bold. If I worked in an office it would be hard not to wear this every day!
Maria Koss says
The skirt is so lovely! That print looks perfect for fall moody outfits!

Loving the black pieces you paired with this pretty skirt– it definitely gives the print a more chic and sophisticated vibe. Perfect for the fall season!
