Obi belts were seen all over the runways from New York to Paris at Marc Jacobs in New York, Basso & Brooke in London and the amazing Louis Vuitton collection show in Paris – understandably so – they’re easy to wrap, create a great feminine silhouette and are one size for all.

Have a look for yourself!

So last week at the Milan Fashion Week everyone was overwhelmed by the tartan overdose brought to us by the grace of the glorious Domenico Dolce & Steffano Gabanna. Not that we lacked any tartan after House of Holland’s presentation at theLondon fashion week, but oh well. Today you can already get it in Korea, [...]
