– I can convince my wife to wear stockings and garterbelts on special occasions and recently bought her a Rago bodyshaper OBG. She tried it on before we attended a wedding in Chicago, last weekend and had me help her fasten the rear straps, which was a delight. Then she had to go to the john and was putt off the OBG because she had to remove the nylons and then remove her panties and then go through the whole restrap procss. She went back to her regular garterbelt with the panties over. My question is: Is there a proper way to wear panties with a OBG?
– Well, if your wife is adventurous, I would say dispense with the panties!
There are two schools of thought on this, I think. If you’re in the US, you wear your undies under. I have been told that in the UK, undies go over in order to avoid said issue. To me that would ruin one’s undies by stretching them out. I did try the undies over the garterbelt too, and it felt horribly uncomfortable.
I have been wearing OBGs exclusively for almost a year now, and have gotten really good at unfastening and re fastening. With the right length stockings, it should take no longer than with a garterbelt. I just roll it up, do what needs to be done and roll it back down again. Beats the hell out of fighting with pantyhose!
Your stockings should be purchased with the understanding that it is their job to pull the girdle down, not the girdle holding up the stockings. That tension is crucial. I hope this answers your question.
– With suspender belts, i.e. the normal four-strap variety that I wear, it is the other way around. The straps are positioned to a “comfortable” and natural position and they then keep the stockings in position, provided that these are long enough. I have never worn OBGs but there is presumably a lot more “force” there to actually pull the stockings up, whilst suspender belts should hold them in place. It is a matter of personal preference, for me the four-strap belts work fine, and I wear them under the panties.
Normally I wear pantygirdles or all in ones For my open bottoms I wear a full panty with a hook and eye closure under the girdle. Most open bottoms are to long for wearing the panty over the girdle. If you want to do it that way try spacious French knickers.

I used to get the odd glimpse when I was in my early twenties up my Mum’s skirt when she used OBG occasionally saw her getting dressed she she was wearing one I presume 4 suspenders OBG with her tap pants/French knickers over it not under also noticed if I was in bed she would come in and out my clothes in the closet dressed only in silky petticoat which I could see the silhouettes of her stockings and suspenders knickers over her OBG . Why do women now wear jeans etc where had the feminism gone mother never wore trousers or tights all her life always stockings and suspenders that’s when women were women . I’m sure I’m not the only man that thinks this way.
You are definitively not the only one!
I’m glad of that don’t feel so bad now. Did you see those undergarments and stockings and suspenders knickers up your Mum’s skirt at that age.
Yes I did and it was very exciting seeing what an older lady wore under her skirt. My Dad was one lucky guy ,having a wife like that . Don’t you think.
Lucky Guy
I’m glad of that . Other men have had the same experience. Can anyone one else give me details of the experience they have had in a similar way.

I grew up with three older sisters. In our parochial school beginning in seventh grade, the girls were required to wear shear stockings to school. I remember being an interested but unnoticed observer when mom instructed my sisters of their stockings and garters. In the morning they would run around with panties over their garterbelts and stockings tucked into their bobbysocks. The were really angry when I would grab their garter straps. After breakfast, and under mom’s supervision, they would pull up, their stockings and fasten their garters.
