How do I fix this dress?

Help needed from dressmaking types!

I have a fab dress with a belt that goes through very fine 'thread loops' and I stupidly snapped one of the loops the last time I wore it - had no time to fix it before leaving for the party, so I just cut it off.

The belt works well enough just tied, but slips due to the nature of the fabric, so I'd like to have something to anchor it.

Can I fix this myself? Planning to wear it on Christmas Day, so not enough time to take it to a dressmaker.

Thank you in advance for any fixes!

Could you loop some bobbles through the belt (bobbles the same colour as the belt) and stitch them onto the dress?
