Animal Print Ballerinas. Did you know the origin of this print?

We've all had an animal print garment in our wardrobe at some point, and surely something similar to leopard skin. An original way to bring out our wild side. At Bobo's we want your wild side to come out again, and what better way to do it than with the 1950 Leopard, Zebrina and Jaguar Ballerinas, made with natural fur with three different prints and lined with leather.

And it's not that we have invented anything new. The animal print emerged in the cave era when they used animal skins to protect themselves from the cold. Later, in the Middle Ages, European royalty and the bourgeoisie incorporated it as a sign of social status and wealth.

But it wasn't until the 20s that leopard print, the most iconic of these animal prints, began to be used. American actress Gloria Swanson was the first actress to incorporate fur into her wardrobe.

In the 50s, supermodel Betty Page wore a swimsuit in Paris with this type of print, which captivated designer Christian Dior, transforming it into a chic garment that has endured for decades. That's why our leopard print ballerina flat belongs to the collection of that wonderful decade in the world of fashion.

In the 60s, fashion icons such as Jackie Kennedy, Elisabeth Taylor, Sofía Loren and Grace Kelly fell in love with this print and could be seen wearing leopard skin coats. In the 70s came the democratization of this print that could already be seen on all types of accessories. And not only the leopard, but also the zebra, tiger or snake.

From then until now we have all been caught up in the animal world that gives a distinctive touch to our outfit. That's why at Bobo's we have designed women's ballet flats that will make you look truly fierce.

As soon as you put on our Leopard skin ballet flats -1950 Leopard- you will see that you have to start dressing from the feet up. That is why we recommend that you do not mix them with other prints. Combine this print with solid colors, black, brown, beige or camel. These women's shoes will liven up your look and make you the center of attention.

And now also ballet flats with a zebra print and a jaguar finish. Which will be the fiercest in the jungle?
