Young Blonde Girl With Blue Eyes Reveals Her Necklace, Blue Brassiere, Panties And White Stockings With Garter Belts Suspenders On The Bench In The Wooden Cottage

For everyday wear, many women wore stockings without suspenders by simply rolling the top of the stocking, because it was more practical, and thus creating a kind of ancestor of the modern hold ups.
Present-day use
Suspenders continue to be worn for their original purpose of holding up stockings. Suspenders today are available in a variety of styles, with red or black satin made from a mixture of nylon and spandex being the most popular.
