Answer 1

Go and buy better garter belt.....

Answer 2

You don't say how tall you are, but a lot of lacy garter belts have straps that are too long for girls under 5'5" I wear my garter belts on my hips, and like my stockings really high, because I wear short skits, so I always shorten the straps. They come unclasped if there not pulling on the stockings a little. Also the plastic clips don't work, you have to have the metal ones.

I go to school, and to an office job right after, so I wear mine 10 to 12 hours a day, and love them. I couldn't wear pantyhose or hold ups half that time without the elastic driving me crazy. It takes a little while getting used to but when you do, there is nothing as convenient or sexy as stockings and a garter belt.

Answer 3

To some of the answerer's, some of us have jobs, requiring that we wear hosiery. As far as I know, that leaves us with only three choices. Pantyhose, which are horrible, thi highs, which are better, but still have bulky elastic tops, and stockings. some of us prefer stockings because are so comfortable, and look so much better.

To answer your question, I think your garter belt doesn't, fit, or is worn out. The clasps will come undone if the garter straps are not pulling on the stockings tight enough. If the straps are too loose, they will come undone. If you have metal clasps you can shorten the straps, so they pull on the stockings, but if they are plastic, sorry but its junk and will never work properly. Go to the website stockingstore.com and look at their garter belts. They have literally the best collection found anywhere in the world.

Answer 4

Either the garter belt or the stockings are too long. The clips will come undone if there is no tension on the garter straps. See if you have the straps adjusted all the way up, and make sure the clips are metal not plastic. If they are plastic throw it out, it's a one nighter, not made to wear on a regular basis.

I wear stockings all day at work and love them, but most garter belts like Victoria's secret style, are too long for regular women . I get my garter belts at www.stockingstore.com and they are fantastic. Many of their stockings also come in 5 sizes. My stockings are so comfortable, I will never wear pantyhose again, and so sexy I don't want to change.

Answer 5

I'm male and have worn gartered stockings under my business clothes almost every day for decades. It's very important in preventing "popping" that the garter straps always be under tension, particularly for front straps which loose some tension when sitting. Stockings that come all the way up the leg with a short strap garterbelt work best (and feel just wonderful). Sometimes, it is useful to pinch the front garter clasps with pliers to minimize the chanced that the tab will pop out.

Answer 6

I wear a garter belt and stockings to work everyday and love them, but a good garter belt is a must. I wear the 6 strap kind which has six shorter straps and metal clips to hold the stockings tight all day long. It sounds like the straps are too long, to keep tension on the little clip. Its, worth getting a new garter belt, beacuse pantyhose are such a bad option.

Answer 7

Garter belts are really comfortable and sexy too, but if the straps are too long they can be a pain. Make sure you have the straps all the way up and have metal clips. The plastic kind are for show only, they don't really work.

I wear a garter belt to work everyday, and I love them, but just like jeans you have to get the right one for your body. Maybe you need a different style, or yours is worn out. I have several and change up every day, and they last about a year before the fastners and straps wear out.

Answer 8

Garter Belt With Metal Clips

Answer 9

You can get lace-top thigh highs that have elastic grippers at the top as well. So when you fasten those to the garters you have extra support. You also may not be using a high-enough quality garter belt (sounds like you're not). If the one you are using does not have metal fasteners, then that's the issue. The plastic ones are just for show... not for daily wear. Upgrade your belt to a La Perla or better brand.

Answer 10

Doesn't that last lady know that pantyhose are the ugliest thing going, and only crossdressers and old ladies like them. Tighten up your garter straps to hold the stockings tighter. I go to school and work and have them on nearly 24/7 and they always stay where I put them, if I hook them up tight enough.

I couldn't imagine wearing pantyhose that long, and my bf would want to kill me if I started wearing pantyhose, guys hate them, there is nothing sexy about them at all.

Answer 11

Get a garterbelt with shorter straps, and make sure they are metal clips, and have adjusters on them. The straps need to be tight, or they will come undone. Once you get used to it, you will love it. I wear them everyday not instead of pantyhose or hold ups.
