ROARING TIGERS

Blame it on Gucci! Ferocious, roaring tiger motifs have been popping up all over Europe, and not only on Gucci handbags.

Appliqués on jeans pant legs, shirts and the back of athletic as well as bomber jackets have been favourite spots to affix images of these menacing cats in London, Copenhagen and Milan.

Another creative tiger interpretation in London was to use the garment as the foundation where striped sleeves coordinated with a tiger face on the zip front jacket. Or, in Milan, the front yoke of a casual jacket sports a stylized tiger as well.

So go on an urban fashion safari and see how many tigers you can spot!
