Ariana Grande wore a sexy LBD with buckled fastenings when she returned to Manchester on Sunday.
Her outfit was a hit with the crowd at the Pride event, which marked her second visit to the city since the 2017 Manchester Arena bombing.
But it’s not just the 26-year-old singer who has “strapped in” for the summer, Kim Kardashian has been seen out wearing buckles as well.
Featuring strapping and cut-outs, the style is not for the faint-hearted — and the high street is not buckling under pressure to follow suit.
This bold trend could be a little belter. Here’s the best of the rest.
