LEATHER BELT: the evergreen accessory

The belt is one of the evergreen accessories. Indispensable in any wardrobe, it is a flexible strip generally of leather, fabric or woven fibers that is worn around the waist.

The belt has the function of support for garments such as trousers or skirts but, it can also have a simple decorative function.

Its name comes from the Latin term cingulum, which indicated the civil belt, while the military one was called balteus.

WHAT ARE ITS ORIGINS?

Its origins date back to prehistoric times: remains of metal belts from the Bronze Age have been found.

In ancient times it also served to distinguish the military, religious or civil rank.

The use of the belt had very precise “stylistic rules”: in the man, once it was fastened, the “tongue” had to end on the right side while, for the woman, on the left side. The logical explanation of this rule is given to us by antiquity and the use of the sword: the various types of belt did not have to hinder the extraction of the sword (carried on the left side and extracted with the right hand) For this reason, the end of the belt had to end on the right side to avoid any kind of hindrance.

The most common model, still nowadays, has a buckle at one end and holes at the other. By inserting the pin of the buckle in the holes you get the closure.

The presence of numerous holes, regularly spaced, allows you to adjust the width, to adapt it to the circumference of the waist of different shapes.

But it can also be equipped with any other type of closure or simply knotted.

THE DUAL USEFULNESS

Are they used to support pants? Not only that!

Belts are an essential accessory of men’s and women’s clothing, a must have of everyone’s wardrobe.

They can match the different ways of dressing, the styles of each and the mood of the moment. There are those who decide to match them with shoes and those who, instead, decide to customize their look by mixing clothing and accessories.

Whether you are a lover of classic matching with tailored trousers and moccasins, or you are an experimenter of creative looks, there is one thing that will surely put you in agreement: the quality of Made in Italy belts by Florence Leather Market.

Men’s belts, women’s belts and elegant belts. Well seen among the many proposals craft proposals there is everything you need to show yourself in the best outfit possible on any occasion.

BELTS FOR EVERY OCCASION

Stylish clothing belts are distinguished by a clean and linear design that easily matches shoes and other accessories from special occasions.

We are not only talking about shiny or semi-glossy leather belts, but also those in tortoiseshell or crocodile style. Also the buckle does its part, because it must be combined with the buttons of the shirt or cufflinks near the cuffs.

The classic belts are chosen and worn daily: they are leather, soft and resistant and Florence Leather Market offers numerous models.

The choice of the best leathers, the precise design, the cut, the seam, the perfect holes, the finishes, the buckle that completes the work of art that is the belt.

Undisputed protagonists of the latest fashion trends, the clutch is definitely the queen of the catwalks around the world. In this article we will see together how to match them from morning to night to be always at the last cry!

The clutches are versatile and it is very easy to match them depending on the occasion when we want to show off our favorite.

When you have a dinner, an important event or a simple evening, the bag is the last thing that is taken into account…nothing more wrong! The bag, often, is the right detail to complete an outfit or make it even more attractive.

Clutch bag for the day or for the aperitif?

The ideal clutch for the day are those characterized by soft lines. A classic office look with a suit matches perfectly with a clutch, especially if it is a slightly larger model.

This accessory is also ideal to contain the essential items before going out to make some purchases, for a dinner or for a quick appointment.

Being, as we said, a very versatile bag, it can also give a casual look a touch of elegance. Think for example of a jeans, a white shirt and an oversize blazer, all dressed up with a clutch bag in soft colors…a perfect outfit for a walk in the center or a coffee with friends!

You will have a fashionable and refined look, without falling into the banal.

As for the aperitif, it could be the right change for a change of dress that makes everything a bit more special. If it is an aperitif by the sea, it is the right time to show off a colorful caftan and your clutch in neutral tones that recalls the beach.. if it is an aperitif in the city, a Texas boot, gritty and feminine, combined with a midi dress and your favorite clutch, they will make you feel beautiful!

CLUTCHES FOR EVENING OR BIG EVENTS

Indispensable for the evening or the big events, the clutch bags to carry by hand are real jewels!

Worn with ease, in addition to containing the few things you may need, they complement the outfit in an exceptional way.

For a casual evening, a long skirt, an embroidered top and a cropped blazer will be ideal to match your mini clutch.

HOW ARE LEATHER BAGS MADE?

In this article we will know together the phases of the processing of leather bags and their relative creation by our skilled Florentine master craftsmen.

CREATION OF LEATHER BAGS: first step

Of course, before we talk in more detail about the production process, we need to start from the beginning. 

What do we need before we create any project? An idea.

And it is precisely the idea that represents the first fundamental step for every single project, in our case for the processing of a leather bag.

Every brand has its own story, an idea, a concept to communicate.

Florence Leather Market wants to offer the precious Florentine leather Made in Italy, at a low price so as to make these artisanal creations accessible to more people.

With a well developed idea it is also important to join a trusted manufacturer who can help you to perfect the project and then the finished product, thanks to the exchange of knowledge and thoughts that takes place between professionals in the sector. 

It will be this exchange of knowledge that will make the idea a real product.

DESIGN : second step

The first thing to start from, to implement our idea, is the design of the products and the relative design of the individual models that we intend to create.

To be able to make the best product and therefore every single sample, the craftsman must be aware of all the particularities and details that characterize the leather bag.

A design is then made that corresponds to the base of the bag, and then continues with the sampling, which will lead to the realization of the prototypes.

CUTTING : third step

At this point, after having realized our prototype, we move on to the next step which is the cutting of the leather in the laboratories. This is one of the most difficult and important processing steps. The craftsman must have experience to be able to guarantee a product of excellence such as those offered by Florence Leather Market.

MODELLING : fourth step

At this point we move on to two other stages of the production process of leather bags: deburring and scarring. 

All models are composed of different parts, prepared in advance, which must then be assembled to get the bag. 

The pieces of leather that have been cut proceed to the “deburring”, thanks to which they are brought to the right thickness to be processed. Not all leathers have the same thickness, therefore, this step, must be carried out with great care and care in order to guarantee an excellent success of the product.

At this stage of processing, all the corners and edges of the bag are also blunted (a process called “scarning”). Afterwards, all the pieces will be glued and sewn together to give life to our bag.

GLUING AND FINISHING : last step

Finally our project begins to take shape.

All the pieces that make up the bag are glued and then sewn, the edges are finished making them fit perfectly.

At this point our simple idea has really come true, thanks to the hands of our skilled craftsmen, our product is treated with attention to detail : the bags of Florence Leather Market exude creativity and Florentine quality.
