Constance Zimmer stepped out in New York wearing a striking animal-print look while promoting the new season of The Lincoln Lawyer and her FX series Love Story: John F. Kennedy x Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy. Her outfit instantly caught attention, thanks to its bold print and airy silhouette.
A few days earlier, she embraced playful power dressing in an all-black look anchored by Alexandre Birman Mary Jane heels.

Constance Zimmer Promotes “The Lincoln Lawyer” in a Leopard-Print Rixo Dress
Constance wore a beige animal-print dress with black spots that stood out from a distance. The pattern was striking, and the fluid fabric gave it that beautiful movement as she walked. Balancing the wild print, she buttoned the dress all the way up to its crisp collar, giving it a polished, slightly tailored edge.
The long bishop sleeves added volume through the arms before tapering at the wrists, which created a soft, romantic shape. I loved how the skirt flowed down to her ankles, while the front slit broke up the length and added a bit of drama. It reminded me of the Rixo “Izzy” dress, which has a similar breezy feel and is currently on sale for $499 (from $547) at Farfetch.
Outside the studio, Zimmer shrugged on a black blazer worn cape-style, striking a confident balance between polish and ease. A safety-pin detail on the lapel added a subtle edge, while her gold serpent lariat—styled in place of a tie—lent the fully buttoned look a sleek, fashion-forward finish.

How to Style Statement Accessories: Serpent Lariat and Gold Jewelry
That necklace was such a standout detail. Instead of a traditional necktie, her serpent lariat necklace brought personality to the fully buttoned dress. She cinched everything together with a slim black belt featuring a gold-tone buckle, defining her waist and adding structure to the flowy silhouette.
Her accessories leaned into gold tones, from multiple earrings to bracelets and rings. She wore her sleek bob down, with soft fringe grazing her oversized black square sunglasses, adding mystery and a touch of old-school glamour.

Constance Zimmer’s $1,310 Le Seul “Amaryllis” Gator-Embossed Boots
Constance paired the dress with the $1,310 “Amaryllis” black embossed gator boots by Le Seul, instantly elevating the overall look. Their rich leather texture added depth, while their sleek shape kept them modern. They also featured a square toe that gave the design a contemporary feel, and an ankle strap with a thin gold buckle that echoed the metallic details throughout her look.
These boots featured sculpted heels, giving her height without sacrificing comfort. True to Le Seul’s focus on wearability, they feature quilted suede insoles, a cushioned footbed, sculpted arch support, and a padded heel cup.
Le Seul is a relatively new footwear brand founded in 2024 by Danyelle Freeman. After struggling to find stylish, comfortable shoes following a permanent foot injury, Freeman launched the label to combine Italian craftsmanship with built-in comfort technology.
