How to Use an Adonis Belt

An adonis belt or iliac furrow is a term for the area of the human anatomy in which two shallow grooves (on the surface) run from the hip bone to the pubis. This area is normally well defined on body builders or people with lean body masses. And, as a result, is often admired for its beauty. For this reason, its use lies mainly in this area, especially for male modeling.

  Show an adonis belt to flaunt certain types of clothing. Bathing suits, low riding pants and underwear can be accentuated by an adonis belt. A common pose is to allow these items to fall to the middle of it or to pull one side down show it.

  Accessorize an adonis belt in order to sell one item. Posing nude with only the product for sale hanging around the adonis belt is a great way to make an impact and sell a product. Models can do this well with belts, scarves, ties and other items that can hang around the hips.

  Apply temporary tattoos to the adonis belt area for an urban look. Male models with tattoos often are pictured in ads for urban products. How should the tattoo look? It should start from the center of the adonis belt and travel up it to the chest. Placement of a temporary tattoo in this area will help you look more "street." It also can be used to sport urban attire like baggy jeans.
