Walk on the Wild Side in Haute Couture!

Prints are stronger than ever for Spring 2008, so why not get a jump on your fashionista competitors with the ultimate luxury: haute couture? Our first option comes to you, surprisingly, from Chanel. It's a wild, bubblegum pink column gown with dramatic cape in chiffon (and yes, those are gold lamé tiger stripes you see). Think it can't get any rarer than that? Well, think again! Now-defunct couturier Phillipe Venet designed the next dress, a garden party mousseline short-to-long creation from the 1970s. Our final selection isn't exactly haute couture, but it was made-to-order from Bergdorf Goodman and is, perhaps, the king of the food chain in Leopard spots.
