TREND: EXAGGERATED BELTS

They came, they went, they returned. Large belts are back big time for Spring 09 and this time, they are bringing loads of embellishments and color along for the ride. It’s true that there was a lot of talk about the skinny belt, but by taking a look at this season’s runways, it is clear that designers are not finished with the “big belt” trend.

Bright colors, heavy beading and geometric shapes are all prominent styles. Paired with mini dresses, jumpsuits and even eveningwear, the trend introduces a modern approach with interesting cutout shapes and fabric choices.


BCBG Max Azria adds a little contrast with  black belt with a square closure matching the monochromatic, silver jumpsuit.
