In the thirties of the last century, it was impossible to imagine a woman’s wardrobe without this feminine detail of clothing. When stockings were replaced by tights and more practical items, the need for a belt disappeared. The erotic garter, captivating men's gaze, still finds a place in the clothing of modern women. What is it called and how to use it correctly, read on.
Name of garter belt
The garter belt appeared in the Middle Ages; in those days it was equally popular among both women and men. Shosses were attached to it - non-elastic stockings made of linen fabric. The shawls did not stay on the body on their own; they had to be tied to the belt.
Today, the garter is an exclusively female attribute, adding sexuality to lingerie and attached stockings.. Such a wardrobe element has not only practical significance, but is also used as a fetish that attracts attention and emphasizes the sexuality of its owner.
Purpose of the accessory
The garter has not only practical significance, but also has a psychologically positive effect on its owner. What are the benefits of wearing such a piece of clothing?
The convenience lies in the fact that wearing this item eliminates the need to take them off and put them on repeatedly throughout the day every time you visit the toilet.. As a result, the stockings are subject to less wear and tear and last longer than tights of the same quality.
Stockings and a belt for them do not have seams protruding under clothing, therefore they are invisible under any, even tight, clothing.
Like any beautiful underwear, stockings with a belt will certainly lift a woman’s mood, increase her self-esteem, and give her a feeling of desirability and sexual confidence. Even when they are completely invisible to others.
