How to choose your belt width?
There is general agreement that for a formal occasion, worn with dress pants or a suit for women, a belt should be between 2.5 and 3.5 cm in width. A size larger would make it too visually imposing compared to the elegance of the pants or suit that one is wearing.
Conversely, you have to be aware that it must still be visible and that a belt that is too thin would make it look scruffy.
