The Big Belt Comeback: My Take on the Statement Belt Trend

Remember when we used to throw wide belts over literally everything in the 2000s? Yeah… she's back. But this time, she’s refined, elevated, and honestly — kind of iconic again.

2025 has officially entered its statement belt era. Think sculptural buckles, structured leather, and silhouettes that give your outfit an instant “I know what I’m doing” effect. Minimal dress? Oversized blazer? Slouchy shirt? A belt turns it into a look.

✨ My take?
This Chloe belt isn’t just an accessory — it’s the moment.
Cinched over an oversized blazer = power stance, activated.
You bet your high-waisted jeans I’ll be wearing this all year long.

  • 🖇 Styling Notes:

    • Toss one over a trench or blazer for that “I run the show” energy

    • Break up a flowy set or silky dress to define your waist

    • Let it be the star — clean lines and solid colors underneath

And yes, I’ve rounded up a few of the belts currently living rent-free in my brain (and cart). Scroll for inspo 👇
