Get The Look
Tribal Gathering
Work the warrior princess look with a mix of wild-at-heart animal prints and ethnic accessories.
Remember Xena warrior princess? The high street has been taking fashion pointers from this fearless beauty with a range of designs that will appeal to the Amazonian in you. The tribal trend takes its inspiration from ethnic African-inspired patterns - from large-scale jungle palm motifs to bold and beautiful animal prints.
For a dressed-down, quietly confident glamazon look, combine safari-style combats or cut offs with a tropical print smock top and a pair of Havaiana flip flops and wooden bangles. And dazzle in the evening with a maxi dress emblazoned with an attention-grabbing, exotic zebra print and as much diamante as you can muster.
