I am pleased to announce that I am now making and selling custom garters. My garters will soon be available with Emily West Lowry Designs; Emily designs magnificent feathered hair accessories, shoe clips, and jewelry, and creates custom bridal pieces, including birdcage veils.
Rond has several lines of garters: Empress, Queen, Duchess, Marquise, and Dame. At present, each garter is a wholly unique creation, but I am also able to craft sets if desired. Some garters are for very special occasions, but some are suitable for everyday wear. Some garters are the now-traditional elastic, but some come in pairs and tie with long ribbons.
Below are some of my current pieces, with their names and lines.

You are just too cool for words. EAC
The genes are yours!
Maybe from both grandmas - I was the conveyor. EAC
This is amazing! I am envisioning some very lucky brides -- and grooms -- and onlookers at wedding dances. ;-)
are they belts? so many styles
Thanks, Sarah! I like to think about the onlookers at weddings, too, but also just any lady flashing a sneak peek :)
Kobe, they are garters for the thigh! Some of them are obi-style garters that you'd wear on each leg. Very fun.
