The US design patent USD568789 titled Belt buckle was awarded to Isabelle Guichot, former CEO of the Balenciaga company.
As a reminder, the difference between a US design patent and a US utility patent is the following:
“a “utility patent” protects the way an article is used and works (35 U.S.C. 101), while a "design patent" protects the way an article looks (35 U.S.C. 171)” (USPTO)
The drawing Fig. 1 on file with the patent is included below with an image of the marketed, belt with belt buckle, product.
