Here at Elliot Rhodes we have always been fond of our mock croc effect belts€¦this incarnation takes us back some 12 years to when we started out and over the last year we have gradually been resurrecting it in some new colour tones. For this season we have introduced this sumptuous deep Burgundy tone. As with so many of our mock croc belts this belt has the wonderful advantage of a range of darker and lighter burgundy tones which when added to the texture with its mix of smooth flank, raised spines and darker veins gives the belt some real character and depth whilst also making it easy to tone in with all sorts of outfits. Of course you may wonder when you will use a burgundy toned belt like this - well, to my mind it is the perfect way to add colour to monochrome outfits, or to work tonally with warm earthy toned looks, or liven up denim. For this belt we decided to keep things contemporary and tonal by using this solid brass sleek flat c shape buckle in a shiny gunmetal finish. We like the sophisticated feel this gives, making the belt really versatile but still distinctive.
