We often talk about European style because individuals in France, Stockholm, London, and other major cities continuously set high fashion standards and are always one step ahead. They inspire us to study their outfits to see what classics and trends they’re leaning into so that we can follow their lead and incorporate them into our wardrobes.
While researching upcoming fall trends and admiring some of these European fashion people, one noticeable styling choice stood out: the strategic use of belts worn over shirts. This captured my attention because it’s another layering moment I’ve spotted recently and because of the way it was styled—particularly Sylvie Mus’s sophisticated pairing of a long sweater with a midi skirt, Hanna Johansson’s luxe slip-skirt ensemble, and Caroline Lin’s stunning monochromatic trench-coat outfit.

You might be reminded of the “unnecessary belt” trend from the 2000s that was popularized by celebrities like Ashley Tisdale, Paris Hilton, and Sienna Miller. However, the current interpretation of belted styling is distinct and refined. Instead of the chunky braided belts and Western-inspired disc belts layered over ribbed tank tops, the current trend calls for more sophisticated and tasteful iterations. Think thin to medium-width leather belts in classic tones like black and ivory elegantly worn with sheer tanks and fine-knit sweaters.
