garter belt

Hosiery suspension band

A garter belt is an undergarment worn around the waist or hips with attached straps and fasteners that clip onto stockings to hold them up.

Before elastic-top stockings became common, garter belts were everyday functional wear; now they're primarily worn as lingerie for aesthetic or erotic appeal: She bought a lace garter belt to wear with her thigh-highs.
