Under one's belt Jean-Paul Goude, a pop culture legend in his own right, with work in the Louvre and several iconic images under his belt, was able to make you stare at one of the world’s most photographed women as if for the first time.

請問under one's belt怎么翻譯？

My comments:

Under the belt is originally another way of saying in the stomach, descriptive of the image of swallowed food ending up in one’s belly.

Imagine the satisfied look of someone who’s been starving for some time having a full meal. How he’d have to loosen up his belt a bit to feel even more comfortable with himself.

Hence, as a metaphor, having something under one’s belt means one has gained or achieved something good.
