How to Select a Garter Belt
A garter belt is an essential lingerie item used to keep stockings or thigh-highs up and in place. When selecting a garter belt, you'll want to choose one that not only looks nice, but is also comfortable to wear throughout the day. Here are a few tips for choosing the best garter belt style for you.
Choosing the Right Fit and Size
- Measure your waist accurately. Make sure you are measuring your waist size, not your hip size.
- Choose a garter belt that fits the range of your waist size. If your waist is in-between sizes, order the larger size.
- Decide if you want an elasticated belt or not. If you don't want one, then check for garter belts with metal clips/hooks or buckles.
- See if the garter belt comes with adjustable straps or extenders if your waist is slightly larger or smaller than the size range.
Ideas for Style and Comfort
- Choose a style of garter belt that will complement the other lingerie pieces you plan on wearing. Match the color and fabric based on what works best for you.
- Opt for a garter belt with wide bands, as they are more comfortable and easier to adjust.
- Choose a garter belt made of a material that is comfortable to wear. Consider your options such as lace, satin, and microfiber.
- Check the inner panel/lining of the garter belt and make sure it is non-abrasive and won't irritate your skin.
- If adjustable straps are included, make sure they are long enough to fit securely without slipping.
- Choose shorter garters if you plan on wearing them under a shorter length dress or skirt.
