The combination of stockings and a suspender belt is a look that is guaranteed to get most hearts racing, but many women are put off wearing them because they’re scared of not knowing how to attach them to each other.
So we’re here to give you a step-by-step guide in how to achieve this sexy look:
1. You can try and attach them before putting the ensemble on, but we find it much easier to start by putting on the stockings and pulling them up until the tops reach the middle to the top of your thigh.
2. Next, put on your suspender belt. You’ll notice that most suspender belts come with a bra-type clasp. Fix this in place and let the 4 straps hang down.
3. Position this 4 straps so that 2 of them are hanging down the front of your legs and 2 of them down the back.
4. Adjust the straps, as you would bra straps, so that they’re the length that you want them to be.
5. Now, comes the hard part. Most suspender belts use an attachment which involves a small piece of rubber which is contained inside a bottlenecked shape wire loop. If they’re attached together when you purchase them, pry the rubber out of the wire loop with your thumb and forefinger.
6. Carefully place the wire loop behind the stocking, next to your skin and the rubber over the top of the stocking. Then force the rubber and the piece of stocking back into the fattest bit of the wire loop and secure them by pushing up until you reach the thinnest part of the wire loop. Adjust the strap again, as you would a bra, if you need it to be tighter or looser.
7. Repeat processes 5 and 6 with all the other straps. To make sure that the straps are attached evenly, try doing this in front of a full-length mirror!
8. You’ll often find that in lingerie adverts, knickers are worn beneath the suspender belts so that more detail on the belt can be displayed. However, in ‘real life’ many girls opt to wear a thong or french knickers over the top of the suspender belt. This allows easy removal for visiting the bathroom and sex!
