At this point, leopard print can be considered a neutral rather than a trend (just ask the Kardashian sisters, who swath themselves in it from head to toe on a regular basis). And for fall, Dior is releasing a makeup collection that appeals to lovers of all things leopard print called the Mitzah Collection, inspired by longtime Dior muse and creative advisor Mitzah Bricard.

The Parisian style icon was known for over the top accessories and layers and layers of leopard print clothing that she seemed to pull off without looking like a fashion victim.

The Dior line inspired by Bricard includes a collector’s palette stamped with a bold leopard print, two shades of nail polish in camel and ebony, five-color eye shadow palette and Dior Show mascara in a shimmery brown color.

Both the dark and light nail polishes seem like a hit and would work well with understated autumnal ensembles as well as more over-the-top leopard get-ups.

The Dior Mitzah Collection is at www.sephora.com in August and on beauty counters in September.
