Realismo Magico Belt Black

$320

Why it's worth it

A raffia ruffle that does what a statement skirt does — but it's a belt.

The Edit

A smooth leather waistband anchored by a petite gold-tone bar buckle, exploding into two tiers of densely hand-loomed black raffia that fan out into a full hip-skimming peplum. The woven flounce has a coarse, organic finish — irregular rib patterns visible throughout — that reads as intentional craft rather than embellishment. Sits at the natural waist and dramatically rewrites whatever silhouette it's layered over.

Insider Tip

Raffia is stiff, not flexible — the peplum holds its shape best over slim-fitting bottoms; wide-leg trousers will collapse the flounce.
