UPDATED DECEMBER 2, 2019 11:37 AM EST

Over the past few seasons a new love for animal prints has been unleashed, with leopard seemingly leading the way. But there's a wild new contender for the most fashionable animal motif: cow print! Yes, brands are all about bovine. Cow print starred in Ralph Lauren's fall-winter collection and was also embraced by Tory Burch and Missoni. Victoria Beckham's pre fall-winter 2019 collection also brought a cow print moooooood to fashion week.

In 2019, Meghan Markle gave the trend the royal stamp of approval. For a visit to Smart Works, the Duchess of Sussex stepped out in the cow print the Plexi heels by Gianvito Rossi, combined with the 'Eliza' dress by Hatch, a cotton twill Oscar de la Renta coat and the Vanity Box Bag by Victoria Beckham.
