Spotted: Blake Lively at New York Fashion Week. After cheering on Travis Kelce at the Super Bowl with her BFF Taylor Swift just a few days earlier, Lively was back in NYC on Tuesday, this time to support her good friend Michael Kors. And we can always rely on the actor when it comes to fashion (did you see her cute athleisure look at the big game?).
Her look for the show surprised with an unusual print, which could become the trend in 2024. The designer presented his fall-winter 2024 collection, and the front row attracted a bevy of celebs. In addition to Lively, Katie Holmes, Nina Dobrev, and Rachel Zegler attended the show.
However, while the other guests largely opted for minimalist looks, Lively went for an unexpected set, naturally by Michael Kors. The outfit featured a matching coat and a skirt, each in an eye-catching giraffe print. The 36-year-old teamed the look with a brown top, matching boots and tights, a small handbag and large hoop earrings.

Animal prints, while considered classic, are in the midst of a major moment. That’s in part to the TikTok-fave “mob wife” aesthetic, which leans heavily on faux-fur coats, leather, and bold gold jewelry. The undisputed favorite print, however, is leopard print. But zebra, tiger, and cow patterns are also worth trying—and now, thanks to Blake Lively, we’re inspired to try a giraffe pattern too.
For a similar look to Lively’s, choose a look in a neutral color, and don’t be afraid to wear multiple pieces. Or if you want to approach the trend slowly, opt for a singular item, like an animal-print accessory or coat.
Here are a few giraffe-print pieces you can shop now, if you can’t wait to try Lively’s look:
