leopardskins

Big cat pelts

Leopardskins are the pelts of leopards, prized for their distinctive spotted pattern.

The term extends to fabrics and materials printed to imitate this pattern: She wore a leopardskin coat.

Leopardskin prints became associated with bold, sometimes garish fashion statements: leopardskin upholstery, leopardskin leggings.
