A garter belt is a type of lingerie worn around the waist or hips to hold up stockings. It typically consists of a band made of elastic or other flexible material with attached garters, which are loops or straps that go around the top of the stockings to keep them in place.
Garter belts have been worn for centuries, and their popularity has waxed and waned over the years. In the early 20th century, they were a common item of lingerie, but their popularity declined in the mid-century as pantyhose became more popular. However, garter belts have seen a resurgence in popularity in recent years, as more women have rediscovered the allure of this classic lingerie item.
