Despite its modest size, the wedding garter on the leg is an indispensable element of the bride's attire. Therefore, leading brands, specializing in wedding fashion, spend a lot of time designing it.
What is a wedding garter?
The garter is a ribbon made of satin, guipure, silk or any other flowing fabric that can be decorated:
- lace;
- satin strips;
- beads;
- organza;
- fat;
- pearls;
- embroidery;
- beads.
Preparing for the wedding, many brides sew the garter on their own , as it does not need to have any special skills, and others - buy a ready-made beautiful accessory in the salons with wedding accessories.
Why do I need a wedding bandage?
Wedding garter for the bride is not only a gentle and playful decoration of the image of the culprit of the celebration, but the main attribute in one of the most interesting rituals, where the groom should take it off the foot of the beloved without resorting to the help of hands, and then throw it into the crowd of their friends.
Another equally important function of the garter is traditional - it's support for stockings. It was in the early 90s of the last century, when brides began to copy fashion trends from the West and put on stockings that did not hold on to the leg, the brides used garters, and then made them part of the wedding rite. Because of this, the girls began to wear two garters at once on both legs, and each of them performs its function:
- The first - for the wedding ceremony .
- The second one should be removed by the groom on the wedding night .
Despite the fact that the garter will be seen by guests only at the end of the evening, it still must fully blend in with the image of the bride. The main thing is, of course, the color. If your dress is a traditional color, then the accessory can be white or beige, and if not traditional color, for example red, then red or gently pink. It is also important that the wedding garter on the leg and stockings are of the same style and organically complement each other. So, if there is a picture on stockings, then the accessory can have a laconic design that would give the image of tenderness and vice versa - monotonous stockings and adornment-rich garter.
