Celebrate the Year of the Tiger With Fabulous Feline-Inspired Finds

What do Lady Gaga, Queen Elizabeth, Marilyn Monroe, and Amanda Gorman have in common? They were all born in the Year of the Tiger, which, in 2022, starts with the new moon on Feb. 1. Third in the 12-animal Chinese zodiac cycle, people sharing this sign are known to be powerful, energetic, dynamic, unpredictable, and — not surprisingly — fierce.

For designers, the tiger has proved to be “excellent style fodder,” according to W Magazine. The holiday has inspired a plethora of supremely chic merchandise, from fashion capsule collections to statement-making home decor.

Here, our favorite feline-inspired finds — in all their fabulousness.
