Women's Self Tie Wrap Around Obi Soft Wide Waist Band Cinch Boho Dress Belt (Black, Fit to waistline 26.7"- 35.4")

I needed a back tie-bow belt for a Victorian dress. This cut & style worked well. Belt fabric is like ultra-suede, so it draped softly, not stiff like taffeta. On the belt's oval I pinned a heart-shaped rhinestone brooch through the front of the belt & dress. After a long day the bow had loosened a bit but wasn't noticed.

This is not a tailored belt. It’s a little too wide and not very flattering.

This belt has a suede-like finish to the fabric, so it feels a bit wintery rather than summery. The red has almost a blue undertone to it. It is long enough to wrap generously. My only reason for giving it 4 stars rather than 5 is because it bled slightly when I rinsed it out, so be careful if you wear it with something light colored, since if it gets wet the dye could bleed.

This belt is cute, and ties easily around my waist (36in.) Be warned, don't wear with a light fabric underneath. After trying it on, I noticed the color transferred to my hands and light colored top. I soaked and rinsed the belt twice, so the water ran clear but it still transfers. I have yet to try machine drying it to set the color.

This belt is designed for a very small waist. If you are on the higher side of recommended waist size, you will only be able to tie the belt in a small not. The belt material feels nice to the touch, but is not very thick.

The belt is cute. Generous enough in size to tie easily. Keep in mind that it is pleather like so I can’t attest to how long it may last with routine wear but for the price it works for my needs.

First of all I love the color. Secondly, the fit is great and its very comfortable. My last point is it's a great look when you wear it with a loose dress or shirt.

Runs small (just a small knot) and fabric is soft suede feeling. I just hope the color doesn’t run like someone wrote. It will work with my black romber though.

Definitely not the colour in the product picture, I cannot use it as I have nothing to match this. Hopefully I’ll find a friend who will like it. It’s looking better on a flat stomach, too.
