Animal Print Capri Fashion Blog Posts
Apparel Search fashion blog — blog posts about animal print capri pants.
In this section we present links to news about animal print capri pants — one specific garment where two strong ideas meet: the cropped, mid-calf capri length and the bold patterning of animal print. This page is narrower than the general animal print index it links to, and that is the point of it: a reader looking for cropped animal print pants should not have to sort through dresses, tops and sweatshirts to find the one post about capris. The post collected here is about Vanessa Hudgens wearing Soffe capri pants, and the sections below explain capri pants, animal print, and how the two combine.

About Capri Pants and Animal Prints
Capri pants — also known as capris, crop pants, long or three-quarter pants, and clam diggers — are mid-calf pants worn in warm weather, with variants ending below the knee and calf. Widely popular with women, they are also worn by men in many countries, especially in Europe, Latin America and Asia. Capri pants were introduced by European fashion designer Sonja de Lennart in 1948; the pants' name derives from the Italian isle of Capri, where they rose to popularity in the late 1950s and early 1960s. The capris with animal prints can carry the print on the entire pant or on a portion of the pant, and a printed cropped pant is a different styling problem from a printed dress: the print sits on a moving, leg-length garment, so scale matters — a large leopard spot reads sporty, a fine print reads almost like a texture.
Animal print itself is a clothing and fashion style in which the garment is made to resemble the pattern of the skin and fur of an animal such as a leopard, cheetah, zebra, tiger, spotted or striped hyena, giraffe, monkey or some other type of animal. Tap into your animalistic side with fun, flirty and stylish animal print fabrics — on capris, that usually means pairing the pants with a plain top and simple shoes so the print carries the outfit, exactly the formula in the Soffe post above.

Common Questions
What are capri pants?
Capri pants — also known as capris, crop pants, long or three-quarter pants, and clam diggers — are mid-calf pants worn in warm weather, with variants ending below the knee and calf. They were introduced by European fashion designer Sonja de Lennart in 1948 and take their name from the Italian isle of Capri, where they rose to popularity in the late 1950s and early 1960s.
What blog post is collected on this page?
One post: Vanessa Hudgens in Soffe Capri Again, from June 2013. This page is deliberately specific — it covers animal print capri pants only — while the general animal print blog page, linked at the top, collects the wider set of animal print posts.
How do you style animal print capris?
Let the print be the outfit: pair animal print capris with a plain top in black, white or one of the print's own colors, and simple flat shoes or sandals that suit the cropped length. A printed top or competing pattern fights the pants; a solid top makes the same pants read as a deliberate statement.
