The belt - clothing element during course of history

Not before the ancient Roman time differently designed belt buckles became a fashionable development. So belts are a really old addition to clothes. But they served not only for fastening skirts and trousers, but also they became symbols of social status in course of time. Whereas humans of lower social class could not afford expensive leather belts, royals showed their social position with lavishly adorned belts out of valuable leather with buckles, which were adorned richly.
