Frog Closures for Clothing and Bags: A Timeless Fastening

The frog closure is a type of fastening for clothing that usually consists of a looped cord where a wooden "olive" is slotted in. However, there are many different types available. Frog closures in metal or jewel frog closures are very popular, with the key being that they add a special touch to the garment being crafted. Typically used for jackets, capes, and ponchos, frog closures for crochet bags are also becoming the true stars of DIY creations.

Why Are They Called Frog Closures?

The word from which they derive, amâra in Arabic meaning cord, is representative of the structure of this closure, which over time has evolved into increasingly unique fastenings. These closures were very popular in the 1980s when frog closures for Montgomery coats were seen on all the outerwear of the most important brands, but we all know well that fashion is cyclical, and that's why they are now back in vogue!

Other Types of Fastenings and Their Role

Besides frog closures, there are multiple types of fastenings that play a fundamental role in clothing and accessories. Snap buttons and automatic buttons provide a practical and discreet solution for garments and accessories, while buttonhole buttons and wooden or mother-of-pearl buttons add a touch of elegance. Plastic and resin buttons are also widely used for their versatility and the variety of designs available.

For bags, magnetic buttons and metal buttons are popular choices, offering both security and style. The zipper closure remains a classic for bags and clothing, while options such as clip closures, hook closures, carabiner closures, snap closures, and velcro closures continue to be reliable choices for a wide range of applications.

The Versatility of Frog Closures in Modern Design

Frog closures are not just a blast from the past but a contemporary choice for those looking to add a unique touch to their garments and accessories. Whether it's a jacket, a cape, a poncho, or a bag, frog closures can transform a simple item into an exclusive design piece. With a variety of materials and styles, from classic to modern frog closures, this fastening offers endless possibilities to express one's personal style.
