Young Blonde Girl Wearing A Necklace And Hold-ups With Garter Belts Suspenders On The Table And Chairs Near The Window With Curtains

Suspenders or garter belts is a woman's undergarment consisting of a reinforced material strip usually at least 2 to 3 inches wide which is worn around the waist, to which 2 or 3 elastic suspenders are attached on each side. The suspenders are typically clipped to the stockings by metal hourglass clips with rubber circles, allowing for adjustment and a locking mechanism. Such clips are best attached to stockings with a simple welt that does not have lace or silicon lining.
It is best to wear garter belts on the waist line or just slightly below. If worn too low on the hips, there is a chance of garter belts sliding down as they are being pulled on by the stockings.
Nowadays, pantyhose or tights, are more favored than stockings, and hold-ups are an alternative way for holding up stockings. Nevertheless, suspenders continue to be worn. They are considered a reflection of their enduring role in erotic fantasy.
