Jewel, thin or maxi?
No uncertainty this time, the winter trend is the maxi belt.
Super long and dangling are the passe-partout that makes every outfit trendy. Their versatility makes them perfect for both sporty and super-chic looks, becoming the glam alternative to bags and necklaces.
Vinyl, leather or cotton, double or single, with large side buckle or metal inserts does not matter, the trend talks clearly: on a simple outift they give character and style. Forget who claims that they are only suitable for informal situations, from the catwalks we can see models that are extravagant and in an absolutely maxi format even on long crepe or tulle dresses.
Also in this case the inspiration comes from the street: Off-White with its iconic (and very long) belt which has become the symbol of the street-style has influenced the fashion system revolutionizing the way of wearing this accessory that is, let’s face it, the evergreen for excellence of every wardrobe.
Names of prêt-a-porter and haute couture followed: Dior, Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Gucci, Fendi e Saint Laurent. Taking part to the trend of the logomania, in fact, they have reinstated in their proposals a series of belts from the most iconic with the maxi logo buckle to the most refined with exotic leather, shiny elements and chains inserts.
Stretching the waistline to give femininity to the silhouette, they are also the ideal partner for oversized coats and sweaters. They can be worn with everything: with the highly exploited androgynous combo of pullover and boyfriend jeans, with a minidress, to give character to maxi blazers and to slimming the figure on playsuits and cargo pants. Of course, logomania aside, there are plenty of trendy and a little ‘less expensive alternatives in the market (and on Instagram) give above all a look to Zara that this season has launched really unmissable pieces!
