How to Choose the Best Leather Belt for Your Body Type

When picking a leather belt, keep in mind that it should hit three main points: 

1. Fit your body.
2. Flatter your shape.
3. Function seamlessly with your wardrobe.

How to Pick the Best Leather Belt for a Plus-Size Woman

The best leather belt for a plus-size woman should always support rather than squeeze your curves. For your leather belt to hit all three goals fit, shape and function, here are some things you can look for:

• 1.5” to 2” Wide Belts: These kinds of wider styles of leather belts ensure pressure is distributed evenly and won’t dig into your body. Our range of plus-size belts offer the highest level of comfort and adjustability.
• Sturdy Buckles: Strong buckles on a leather belt are ideal for plus-size women. Opt for shapes that are rectangular or oval to prevent the belt from rolling.
• Reversible Designs: Who doesn’t love hitting two birds with one stone? Our range of reversible leather belts add a touch of versatility to your wardrobe.

How to Pick the Best Leather Belt for a Petite Girl

If you’re a petite girl with a shorter frame you very much want to opt for the complete opposite:

• Thinner Belts (1” to 1.25”): Slimmer styles of leather belts keep the proportions of your frame balanced.
• Smaller, Simple Buckles: Oversized buckles on your leather belt can drown you out and overall just look clunky on petite frames.
• Being Colour-Savy: Knowing what works when it comes to colours is essential for petite women. A belt that matches your pants will elongate your legs.

How to Find the Best Leather Belt for Apple & Pear Shaped Women:

Apple Shapes: Opt for adjustable braided belts with flexible material like our bestselling Tan Leather Braided Belt. These kinds of plaited designs prevent your belt from digging into your stomach. Darker shades compliment apple-shaped figures by creating a slimming effect.

Pear Shapes: You really want to highlight your waist. If you’ve got it, flaunt it! Hit the sweet spot with a medium-width leather belt. An eye-catching buckle will accentuate your features and draw attention upward.

Tall or Straight Frames: Did you know you can create Curves With Your Leather Belt?

Wider Belts around 2” to 3” in width are the sweet spot for tall or straight frames. Especially when donning a dress, a thin belt can make a straight frame look even straighter. Wider belts, on the other hand, can create the illusion of curves. Pair your thicker leather belt with a dramatic statement buckle and contrasting colours and voila! You have just found the perfect leather belt for your straight frame.

Pro Tip: Measuring before you buy is a surefire way to ensure you get the perfect belt!
