What's the Russian for suspenders/garter belt?

Question

I'm looking for the specific, correct Russian translation for suspenders/garter belt — the kind a lady wears when she wants to be sexually provocative. I'm explicitly looking for this kind of lingerie, and not just a wardrobe accessory used to fulfill some practical function like holding up pants, for example. In German, we have the word "Strapse" — or plural "Strapsen." As far as I know, English suspenders/garter belt doesn't refer to the same thing. Suspenders is more general, and, consequently, not specific enough. Garter belt sounds weird. In Russian, I found different translations using different translators, however they're not all correct, as far as I can tell:

подтяжки

подвязка

пояс для чулок

Answer 1

If I understand you correctly, you're looking for пояс для чулок ("garter belt").

It's a belt which is worn about the waist and has suspenders which attach to the stockings and help hold them up (or at least that's how it looks).

The belt itself and the suspenders are usually sewn together and do not detach. I'm not sure that there's a commonly used separate word just for the suspender parts, but people seem to be using подвязки, резинки, подтяжки, держатели.

Without a context, подтяжки ("suspenders") are belt suspenders which are worn over the shoulders, and подвязка ("garter") is a piece of leather or fabric which is worn about the leg right below the knee.
