Plus Size Garters & Hosiery buying guide

This page lists every plus-size garter belt, garter set, stocking and tight we stock, in fishnet, lace, sheer and wet-look. The products above are the whole range. The sections below cover how to size hosiery for fuller legs and how to wear garters so they stay in place.

Sizing and fit

Plus sizes are labelled three ways in this range: Queen or 1X/2X, XL/2XL, and 3X/4X. They are not interchangeable between makers, so measure your bust at the fullest point, your natural waist and your hips at the widest point, and match all three against the chart on the product rather than the letter on the label.

Hosiery is sized by height and weight, and thigh-highs by thigh measurement too. If your thigh is at the top of the range, choose a Queen size so the band sits flat rather than digging in. For a garter belt, the waist measurement decides the fit, and the straps should be adjustable.

Materials and what they demand

Fishnet is the most forgiving and the hardest-wearing. Sheer stockings look elegant but ladder easily. Silicone-top thigh-highs stay up on their own; plain-top stockings need garter straps.

Garter belts with four or six straps hold stockings more evenly than two. Wet-look and leather-look belts pair with bustiers and corsets from the same range.

Care that preserves it

Hand wash in cool water with a mild detergent, press the water out in a towel rather than wringing, and dry flat or over a rail away from direct heat. Fasten every hook before washing so it cannot snag the lace, and never tumble dry: heat is what kills elastic.

Keep stockings in a separate bag in the drawer so they cannot snag on hooks and fastenings.

Frequently asked questions about plus size garters and hosiery

Do I need a garter belt with thigh-highs? Not with silicone-top stay-ups. Plain-top stockings do need garters.

Will thigh-highs roll down? If they are too small at the thigh, yes. Choose by thigh measurement.

Do garter belts go under or over the panty? Put the panty on over the garter straps, so you can take it off without unclipping.

Are stockings included with garter sets? Some are. The product description lists every piece.

Common mistakes when buying plus size garters and hosiery

Choosing standard-size stockings on a fuller thigh. They roll and pinch.

Wearing the panty under the garter straps, which makes the bathroom a chore.
