Garter Belts - Sexy Lingerie from the past
January 1st, 2009Sexy lingerie is a lot of things to a lot of differant people. Many don’t consider bras and panties as lingerie as they are worn day in and day out. Other consider lingerie as any undergarments worn by women and include bras, panties and other everyday unmentionables. Sexy garter belts are certainly sexy lingerie and they have a colorful and long history in the sexy lingerie hall of fame. Few articles of lingerie have the seductive and sensuous pedigree that garter belts have as they have evolved from utilitarian garment to strictly sexy lingerie.
Most lingerie has evolved at least to some extent over the years, decades and even centuries. Garter belts were a staple of women’s lingerie collections until the advent of pantyhose. Pantyhose freed women from wearing garter belts as they no longer needed something to hold up their stockings. Pantyhose were a combination of stockings, garter belts and panties and who could ask for most convenience? Problem was and is pantyhose are ugly, hot and not really that convenient.
Garter belts have seen a resurgence in popularity in part because they are sexy, beautiful and they accentuate a woman’s body in a special way that assured they would never go away. Thanks in part to miracle fabrics like spandex garter belts are comfortable and not bulky which works well with today’s figure flattering styles in skirts, dresses and other women’s styles.
Should every woman have garter belts in their lingerie wardrobe? Yes, and yes! While many would argue that garter belts are simply a bedroom novelty the resurgence in popularity of garter belts is associated with the popularity of stockings otherwise known as thigh high stockings. The combination of the two is very hot, very sexy lingerie. A peek of a woman’s naked thighs under a skirt is well, breath taking. You can’t get that with pantyhose, but you can with stockings and garter belts. This naughty, slightly sensuous bit of nostalgia are helping to make garter belts a must have in sexy lingerie. <a href=”http://technorati.com/claim/zn27u7whpi” rel=”me”>Technorati Profile</a>



When was the last time you saw a size 14, 16 or 18 woman on a runway wearing a sexy bra or better yet, sexy panties? The likely answer is never! With plus size women being a significant portion of the U.S. population you would think plus size models and plus size fashion would be much more visible in the media whether it be television, magazines or billboards.
