Initial D Jewel Belt Vintage Buckle One of a Kind
With Initial D, the buckle becomes a striking graphic statement in its own right. Its bold rectangular silhouette in polished silver-tone metal features a central motif reminiscent of the letter D, like an abstract monogram worn at the waist.
Selected for the strength and modernity of its design, this vintage buckle, circa 1980, embodies the architectural aesthetic characteristic of the late 1970s and 1980s: bold proportions, pure geometry and a luminous mirror-like finish.
I paired it with recycled grained white leather, whose understated elegance beautifully highlights the polished surface of the buckle. The black reverse of the leather adds another subtle yet distinctly graphic contrast.
Worn over black, as shown in the photographs, Initial D instantly defines the silhouette. It can just as easily complement a minimalist dress, an oversized jacket, a jumpsuit or high-waisted trousers, or add definition to a clean-lined coat.
This belt perfectly embodies the BUTTONS PARADISE philosophy: sourcing distinctive vintage buckles, reinterpreting their original purpose and giving them a new life through contemporary pieces handcrafted in Paris.
Only one Initial D belt exists. A jewel belt created for a woman who loves the individuality of wearing a piece that no one else owns.
