There are the typical leather belts created to hold up pants and cinch waists and then there are the accessories in the Everything Forever Belts Collection. More decorative that practical, they have a dominatrix-like aesthetic that adds a nice touch of edge to outfits. The use of metal and leather will attract those who dare to experiment with their style this year.
Created by New York-based architect and designer Francis Bitonti in collaboration with American fashion designer Katie Gallagher, the Everything Forever Belts Collection were put on display during Gallagher's Spring/Summer 2013 runway show. Full of geometric shapes and double fish hook ends, the stainless steel for the belts were created using 3D printing technology.
The Everything Forever Belts Collection is at once strong and intricate.
