My Alessandro Albanese Motion Lite coats came with two sets of interchangeable buttons, but both are pretty boring. I was hoping to replace them with something a little fancier. Has anyone found that style of interchangeable button for sale anywhere? (It has a little ring on the back that you turn, and slide out through a slot - no sewing required.)
like cuff links? Check Etsy
Yes! Thank you!
Aren’t they just regular buttons held on with split rings vs sewing?
Fascinating. You may be right!
The world of button customization is yours! 🪄
All you need to do is find the right size button that has a loop back and switch the split rings out. I did it with mine. I went to a notions shop in the NYC Fashion District and picked out some blingy buttons.
Now I feel overwhelmed with choices! I’m leaning antique brass on my navy coat and some black rhinestones on my black coat. Thankfully Amazon has tons of choices now that I understand what to look for.
Did you find some you liked?
Yes! I haven’t put them on yet because both coats are due for a wash. I went with antique copper filigree for my navy shad and black rhinestones on antique silver for my black one. I also bought some more basic silver ones in case the rhinestone ones are too much.
