Earlier, metal chain belts were an accessory of oriental girls and youth subcultures, but today this jewelry has received a response in the hearts of fashionistas all over the world.

Another concise and fairly versatile model. It will fit almost any dress, the main thing is to choose the right belt. With a thin belt, you can designate the forms in the oversize dress or emphasize the waist in a long dress on the floor. In connection with their femininity, a cocktail dress and a sheath dress are also often supplemented with a thin belt. But these models need a special approach, since it is important here not to overdo it with diversity and details. For example, if a cocktail dress is decorated with stones, then a belt in rhinestones is better to prefer plain, without decor.

A belt is a great solution to add color to a mono. In this case, the accessory acts as an independent part and does not need support by other elements.
A contrast belt clearly divides the figure into the upper and lower half. This feature can be used both for good and harm. In order for the belt to play in your favor, the proportions of the figure should be taken into account. To visually lengthen the legs, the belt must be positioned slightly above the waist.

Often the belt marks the main point of the image and makes the view more clear and complete. This can come in handy if you decide to wear a print dress.
By adding a solid accent, you get a more structured look. But a thin belt can easily be lost against the background of the variegated image. Fashion connoisseurs advise giving preference to wider belts.
The more concise the dress, the brighter the belt can be.

One of the basic rules for combining belts with any clothes, in particular, with a dress. If you chose today a simple plain dress with no frills, then stylists give you every right to express your personality with a belt. Perforation, prints, carved buckles - anything. But if the outfit is already full of colors and interesting details, then the accessory should be more restrained.
The belt should fit the type of figure
Whatever you wear the belt with, it should always fit your body type.
