What is a "garter belt"?
A garter belt is a piece of lingerie worn around the waist, typically made of stretchy fabric or lace, with attached garters to hold up stockings. It is designed to sit snugly on the hips or waist and is fastened with hooks or a clasp. The garters are usually adjustable and made of elastic material, allowing for a comfortable and secure fit. Garter belts are often considered a classic and sexy addition to any lingerie collection, and can be worn for both practical and aesthetic purposes.
Examples

2. I learned something big that day, and that is to never give a ten-cent answer to a million-dollar question, especially at a wedding reception with an open bar and when it's time for the bride to toss the garter belt.
