How to Wear a Garter Belt & Thigh High Hose

Garter bands are another way to hold up thigh-high hose.

Garter belts have been worn throughout history for the practical purpose of keeping up thigh-high hose. They are a small belt piece usually made out of satin or lace. Garter bands, which are often seen at weddings, are another way to hold up thigh-high hose. Today, pantyhose has evolved into a garment that can be worn without the help of a garter belt. Now, most garter belts are worn as decorative and sexy pieces of lingerie.

Instructions

1. Pull up the garter belt until it's around your hips. The belt should fit snugly, but not create extra bulges. You want the elastic suspenders to be hanging down.

2. Put on the thigh-high hose. Pull them up to your thighs.

3. Take each clip at the end of each elastic suspender of the garter belt, and attach each to the top of the thigh-high hose. If the garter belt has alligator clips, it can attach to any type of hose. If the garter belt has button attachments, it will only go with hose that is compatible with the buttons.
