Waisting Away: Acne AW12

It's very difficult to keep up with all the shows during fashion month. Usually I'm so busy looking at the big names and getting the posts out there that I forget (or don't have time) to look at the little guys. But let's not patronise. The point is: I've found some great new AW12 shows I didn't blog about that I'm very excited to share with you...

Feast your eyes on Acne: a study in the AW12 big belt trend. There are so many ways to wear it: here are the best ones.

LEFT: With a puffa jacket: thanks to Peter Pilotto, the puffa jacket is back. So give it the AW12 treatment by belting it... And add some ski pants for some sporty style.

MIDDLE: Business class: Okay, maybe this look is a little too sexy for the office. So lose the hat, add wide-legged pants and pair of platforms and you're good to go.

RIGHT: Pop that colour: In a see of black, black and more black, a pop of bold colour is very refreshing. This belt gives things more of a corset feel - what a statement.

 

Opt for the softer (colour) side of the season with yellow, a peak of metallic, and romantic prints. The matching pant and belt create a fun illusion.

 

So what will it be? Corset belt, or regular belt?

 

You could always just delay your choice. Remember, sometimes not making the statement can make an even bigger statement.
