The idea for this leather belt label, launched in 2000, was founder Zip Stevenson's passion for searching out authentic leather vintage belts and recreating them. Working with highly skilled artisans, the Santa Monica-based Hollywood Trading Company specializes in handcrafted embellished leather belts with a distinctly vintage Americana feel. Fans include Angelina Jolie, Jessica Alba and Kate Hudson who can't resist belting up in multi-colored metallic and leather studded styles.
