There are people who believe the universe is held together by dark matter. We think it might be held together by garter belts.
Not literally. But close.
Think about it. The garter belt is the piece that links things up. It doesn’t scream for attention. It isn’t the headline. But it connects. It supports. It keeps things from falling down in the middle of the day.
We’ve started thinking of garter belts not just as lingerie, but as a way of life.
Every day needs a little infrastructure
The garter belt is the unsung hero of the underwear drawer. It’s the friend who always has safety pins in her bag. The invisible hand that keeps your sheer stockings from sliding into your boots halfway through dinner.
We’re calling it: garter belt energy is what we all need more of.
It’s not control, it’s not perfection. It’s just that thing you add that makes everything else feel a bit more held, a bit more connected, a bit more fun. Because if you’re wearing a garter belt, chances are you thought about your outfit. Or at least the part no one else sees.
And isn’t that kind of iconic?
Clip in, hold on
Wearing a garter belt feels like letting yourself have a little main character moment. It doesn’t matter if you’re staying home. It doesn’t matter if you’re wearing fluffy socks on top of it. You’re clipped in. You’re in place. You’re ready to take the call, the walk, the whatever.
It’s a little ritual. A four-clip pep talk.
Even if the rest of the day unravels, at least your stockings won’t.
Not everything needs to be practical
There’s something wonderfully unnecessary about a garter belt and we are deeply here for it. It’s a lace-draped argument against purely functional dressing. It’s saying yes to softness and structure at once. It’s giving quiet confidence in mesh and satin.
Not because you need to wear one. But because you can.
You can wear it under a blazer. Under pyjamas. With a glass of wine and a slideshow of someone else’s holiday photos playing in the background. You can wear it under a massive hoodie while watching a baking competition on your laptop.
That’s the point.
It’s a feeling, not a rule.
Everything, held in place
So yes. The universe might be expanding. The inbox might be overwhelming. But if you're wearing a garter belt, you’re still clipped into something. You’ve got your own little constellation of straps and clips keeping things right where they should be.
And that, in its own way, is enough.
