Pleated Cummerbund Belt
Why it's worth it
Cobalt blue cummerbund, and suddenly the outfit has a waist.
The Edit
Sixteen centimetres of cobalt pleated viscose wraps and ties at the back, sitting high on the natural waist with horizontal banding that reads more architectural corsetry than accessory. The pleating is pressed flat into structured tiers rather than soft gathers, giving the surface a tuxedo-sash rigidity. A tie closure means the fit adjusts across body types without losing the sharp, wide silhouette.
Insider Tip
The 16 cm width means it covers a low waistband entirely — no visible gap between belt and trouser.
