Specifically full leg hosiery like panty hose, or thigh high stockings with or without garters. Different folks have different opinions on these so I decided to try out the thigh high and garter side of the world.
Garter belts
Garter belts come in two forms – decorative forms meant for undressing and practical forms meant to hold stockings up. You can indeed use the later for the former but not as effectively I found.
I tried the thigh highs with a silicone band that weren’t meant to need a garter belt on a trip to the supermarket. They were a disaster. The kept wanting to roll down my leg and were definitly a bit short despite being a plus size.
Today I tried a decorative gb with stockings but even though the skirt of the dress came down to my calves I felt like I was flashing my lace tops. Not a comfortable feeling. Fine for the boudoir but not fine for work.
Tights and Pantyhose
To be fair in England they’re both called tights. Most women can’t abide them but use them. I see why. Although a pain, they work much better than stockings and a gb. They stay up poorly but better than stockings. Generally they do everything better plus they are generally sheer to at least the crotch sparing one the embarrassment of exposing something untoward.
