If there’s one thing fashion has taught us, it’s that more is more. And right now, the more-is-more mind set is taking over your waistline…because why wear just one belt when you can double up? We’re talking the double belt trend.
The double belt trend is having its moment, proving to be a standout for both Spring/Summer and Fall/Winter 2025. No longer just about function, belts are now the ultimate statement accessory, adding depth, structure, and a serious dose of attitude to any outfit.
Spotted across any number of collections, this trend made its mark during the Fall/Winter 2024 runways, with Michael Kors styling tailored trousers with two sleek belts, and Junya Watanabe layering multiple leather belts over structured coats for an effortlessly undone vibe. Then, for Spring/Summer 2025, designers took the look into lighter, breezier territory with Miu Miu’s play on utility belts over miniskirts and Chanel’s delicate chain belts stacked for extra glam.
The trend has already been co-signed by A-listers. Bella Hadid was spotted in NYC nailing the look with a loosely slung belt over another holding up her jeans, while Dua Lipa embraced belt stacking with a Y2K-inspired twist. Whether you’re cinching a winter coat or layering belts over a flowy summer dress, one thing’s for sure, belts aren’t just holding things together, they’re stealing the spotlight.
The best part? There are no rules. Mix thick and thin belts for contrast, stack multiple styles for a maximalist vibe, or play with mismatched hardware for an effortless, thrown-together look. Whether you go classic with leather or experimental with chain belts, the double belt moment is all about making it your own.
So, the next time you reach for a belt, ask yourself: why stop at one?
