The best women’s belts from Hollywood’s favorite brands

Jennifer Aniston was photographed with such use. So Kendall Jenner, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Dakota Johnson, to name a few. We’re talking Gucci’s cult logo belt. Whether we hear about the application shoe or the bag of the season, belts are not so loved.

But as Gucci belts and other expensive fanny packs took their place in many famous wardrobes, that has changed. It’s a Hollywood secret that designer belts can instantly enhance your look, whether it’s with t-shirts and jeans or a party dress. They’re also an easy way to emphasize your waistline. And as it seems in recent years on the catwalks and in the streets, logomania still prevails.
