Makki Eel Skin Eco-Friendly Belt


Price: £62.00 / €74.40



Makki Eel Skin Eco-Friendly Belt

Ref: 1148Mga

A Whole New Warbrobe Eel Skin Eco-Friendly Belt. This is a stunning high quality wide belt in classic Brown, with a fabulous curved Brass Buckle This belt will transform your wardrobe, it is an instant style injection to any outfit. I' got one and I tried it with every item in my wardrobe and it makes everything look amazing.... All those lose shift tops that look a bit too 'maternity' - amazing.... Those 'why did I buy that' jackets - amazing.... Even the 'well it look quite good in the shop and it was in the sale' dress - amazing. I have a whole new credit crunch busting wardrobe that actually (for once) looks quite stylish and all with one rather niffty belt. What can I say, I know it's quite pricey for a belt, but, to be realistic you could just about get a new frock on the high street and this'll give you a whole new wardrobe - just try it! Just so you know - it features in Cat Walk shows and has won the Best Fashion Product of The Year Award for 2009). The belt is lined in super-soft embossed suede and it measures an easy to wear 7 cm wide and comes with 6 belt holes to fit women with waists or hips between 75 cm and 89 cm - real women size!

Makki produce these beautiful belts (and a range of handbag and purses) in eel skin. Eel skin is amazingly soft, very fine and supple, giving it a wonderful tactile quality. The other really wonderful thing about eel skin is that's it is super strong and will last and wear far better than leather! Not only that, but, owing to its durability and the fact that this eel skin is a by-product of the Korean sea food industry (where eel is a staple food) it is also very eco-friendly.
