The reversible belt guide: two looks, one belt
Every Zinnia belt is reversible, so one belt gives her two looks. How to wear a reversible fabric belt with jeans, dresses, and skirts, plus sizing and care.
"I want a belt that changes its mind as often as I do." Every Hadley Pollet belt is reversible: two jacquard sides, one buckle, and a little mischief in between. One side whispers, the other winks. Here is how to wear both.
What is a reversible belt?
A reversible belt has two finished sides, so she can flip it and wear either one. Ours are made from copyrighted jacquard textiles Hadley designs herself, and every trim starts with a marker in her hand before it becomes a textile. Each side has its own color story, drawn from Hadley's photographs of nature, so one belt gives two completely different looks.
How do I wear a reversible belt with jeans?
Hadley started with belts because she believes they're the simplest way to bring an outfit to life. Add one to a simple top and jeans, and the whole look comes together. Wear the brighter side when she wants the belt to get the first word, and the quieter side when her top is doing the talking.
How do I wear a belt with a dress or a long skirt?
Add a bright belt to a long skirt and a simple top to tie the outfit together. Or wrap it around a dress at the waist for shape and a scrumptious pop of color. A belt over a tunic or a soft sweater works the same magic.
Which side should I wear?
Whichever matches her mood. Pick the side that echoes one color in her outfit for something polished, or the side that clashes a little for something playful. Then flip it at dinner. Nobody has to know it's the same belt.
Five ways to wear one belt
- With jeans and a white tee: the outfit Hadley's first belts were made for.
- With a long skirt: a bright belt ties a simple top and a flowing skirt together.
- Around a dress: cinch the waist and let the color do the rest.
- Over a tunic or sweater: instant shape, with a little sass.
- On the road: one belt, two looks, and a lighter suitcase.
What size reversible belt do I need?
All our belts come in four lengths: Small, 38 inches; Medium, 40 inches; Large, 42 inches; and X-Large, 44 inches. Each length is measured from the center of the buckle to the tip. Measure a belt she already loves the same way and choose the length closest to it. Our fit guide walks through it step by step.
How do I care for a jacquard belt?
We recommend dry cleaning. Treat it gently and it will be ready for years of flipping.
Why is every belt limited edition?
Because unique is chic. We make only a few of each design, so the belt she wears is one she won't see on anyone else.
