Even Meghan Markle and Beyoncé have already worn cow print - the latest major fashion trend you'll be shopping soon

Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle, Victoria Beckham and Kylie Jenner – these are just some of the celebrities taking on this hot cow print trend.

Animal print is the trend of the moment and beyond snake and leopard print, cow hide pieces bring more heat to this global trend. Mango and Mr Price are just some of the stores that have cow print items on sale. Belts, bags, boots and shirts – no item is off limits.

This trend has been worn in three main styles: leather hide, synthetic hide and cow skin print. While not the most vegan friendly trend, even termed controversial when the Duchess of Sussex and Beyoncé wore it, the synthetic and printed shirts will be a better option for those who are anti consuming any animal products.
