garter stockings

Clip-fastened leg coverings

Garter stockings are thigh-high hosiery designed to be held up by a garter belt rather than elastic bands.

Unlike thigh-highs with self-supporting silicone tops, garter stockings require external attachment and are often associated with lingerie, burlesque, or vintage fashion aesthetics: She clipped the garter stockings to her suspender belt.
