Body Chains: Here’s the latest trinket celebrities are sporting on their bodies
updated the 6 October 2015 à 23:51
Beyond headpieces and ear cuffs, take inspiration from Rihanna and Beyonce and deck yourselves out in body chains.
Have you noticed the chains around your neck going lower and lower and possibly even going round your waist? In that case, you must be an avid supporter of the body chains – an accessory trend that has the likes of Rihanna and Beyonce Knowles completely smitten.
While most saw this as a summer trend to be worn with bikinis on the beach, they’re essentially versatile enough to be paired over slouchy tees or allow it to peek through with a low neck top. From minimalist one-chain loops to multiple tiers adorned with gem stones, there’s a rugged and edgy chain that’s bound to suit your taste.
On a side note: if you’re wondering how the trend came about, we’re putting our bets on Middle Eastern belly chains and Indian classical dancers who wore belt-like necklaces around their bellies – albeit today’s chains are little more updated and carries subtle references to armour that was used during the Roman times.
Intrigued? Well, if you’re keen to take one home and drape it around your body for your next look about town then take a peek at our selection of body chains to shop from.
