Flimsy, But In A Good Way

This garter belt is a little flimsy in the "doesn't take up much space" category, but doesn't fall short in the "built to last" category. It's small enough to stick in your pocket yet durable enough to keep your stockings up all night. It might show under some tighter dresses, but it's less bulky than a lot of other garter belts.

This adorable garter belt from Coquette is a great choice if you're looking for something small and simple.

The packaging was very minimal; just a plastic bag. There's a small tag on the inside of the back of the garter belt that tells you that this is a one size piece and is 100% polyester (exclusive of trim) and should be handwashed only and line dried. To Coquette, a one size piece means that you should be between a size 4-14, with a waist size of 26-32" and hips of 36-42". My natural waist is about 29" around and where this sits on my hips is about 34" around. It sits comfortably and easily at both.

In this tiny package you get just the garter belt. It really doesn't take up much room and has just the right amount of girly. The basic parts are the elastic waistband and the elastic garters which are both then covered in a frilly black lace. The lace is really soft, so it won't scratch you or your partner. There's one small bow in the front and a bow on each of the garter straps where the elastic meets the adjustable portion. The waistband is not adjustable except for being stretchy. However it did stretch out to be about 48" around, so it should very easily git the entire range of the size chart.

The garter straps are all the same length if they're adjusted the same way. This means that you can wear the belt facing "backwards" or "forwards" and not have issues with garter straps being too long or too short. The elastic comes down about 5 1/4" from the waistband where it meets up with the adjustable portion of the straps. You can adjust them to be as short as 4 1/2" from the bow for a total length of 9 1/2" from waistband to clip, or you can let them out all the way for a total of about 12" from waistband to clip, or any combination within. The straps do stretch, both the elastic and the adjustable portion so no worries for you tall folks.

The clips are pretty simple in design. A little silicone piece fits through a plastic clip, much like a sliding lock would work. There are ribbons sewn on to the silicone piece that basically hide the clip, giving you a more "pretty" look. Some people don't mind the clips not being hidden or prefer the ribbons not get in the way, and the good news is that if you really want them gone, it's not hard to do.

I know some people might be worried about the quality of the garter belt if it looks like it's basically made of lace. Well I'd like to reassure you some. If you're really rough with it, you'll probably tear the frilly lace some. But under normal circumstances everything should stay in tact. I stretched the waistband as far as I could get it to go and had no issues at all, but tugging on one of the straps really hard did result in some tears in the more transparent portion of the lace.

Experience
I really enjoyed this little garter belt. My first garter belt was something that I loved, but I have grown less fond of. I still enjoy wearing it for the design, but as I've gained a little bit of weight since I bought it, while it still fits on that smallest setting, I have a harder time getting it over my hips and it's a little stuck in that smallest setting.

This lacy belt gave me all the minimalistic features I love about the other belt without the difficulty putting it on and taking it off. I can wear it comfortably under jeans, or under a skirt, or wherever. The small design makes it easy to wear my underwear over the belt in case I want to remove that without having to remove the belt entirely and I'm overall pretty in love with it. I highly recommend it if you're looking for a garterbelt that will hold stockings up without constantly making its presence known.
