Ladies Garters

[lady reb]

I am wanting to trade in my incorrect white roll garters for period correct ones. Are crocheted flat garters the only correct option? I don't crochet, and haven't found these for sale. Help is appreciated in making my presentation a more accurate one!

That isn't specifically my area of research but I've only seen crocheted garters post war. If you knit, they did have knitted garters. Glenna Jo Christen has flat elastic garters which are as close to period ones as I've seen. The address to her website is http://home.earthlink.net/~gchristen/catalog.htm
