Lace as part of garters

Often the garter tattoo, the meaning of which is quite frivolous and easy, is performed in a lace version. The material itself, which copies the tattoo, is delicate and subtle. Originally it was used only by rich ladies. Moreover, the thinner and more elegant was the lace, the richer was considered its owner. It is interesting that originally the lace was not woven, but carved. For this purpose, fabric was used, in which artisans carved ornaments and patterns. Lace garters can signify the vulnerability of the wearer. They are suitable for a feminine and sensual nature.

A bit of history

It is amazing how with such a small detail of a woman's closet can be associated with so many romantic and even heroic stories. The first garters appeared in Europe simultaneously with stockings - in the XIII century. Initially their appearance was not given much importance. The fashion for garters with lace and bows was introduced by the Marquise de Pompadour, a favorite of Louis XV. Anyone familiar with the history of Europe has probably heard of the Noble Order of the Garter, around which many legends hang. One of them says that once, when King Edward III danced with the Countess of Salisbury at a ball, during the dance her garter slipped off her leg. The guests noticed this and began to laugh at the embarrassing situation in which the countess found herself. But Edward picked up the garter and blatantly tied it on the sleeve of his camisole, saying it was embarrassing to laugh about it. And later he founded the Order of the Garter. Nowadays, the white garter is an integral part of wedding traditions. It symbolizes the purity of the bride.

The bow as part of the garter

It's hard to imagine anything more feminine than a bow. Despite the fact that this element seems easy and does not mean anything, the garter tattoo, the sketch of which contains this detail, can have the following meanings:

  • Lightness in the perception of life. The bow is considered a symbol of spontaneity, a simple attitude to everything. The owner of such a tattoo is rarely sad, goes through life easily and calmly;
  • Change in destiny. As you know, the bow consists of a knot and beautiful circles. And so the life of the owner of such a tattoo can include both difficulties and happy moments. Sometimes such a tattoo emphasizes that there were any difficulties, which did not spoil the character of the owner of the figure;
  • Woman Bait. This is how those who have chosen a bow as the basis for the tattoo can denote themselves. Especially if the image is made in bright color. Such ladies will stop at nothing, but will achieve their goal.

Tattoos associated with weapons

This move is used by femmes fatales, seeking to seduce a man, but they know their own worth. The owner of this kind of tattoo will not waste himself for nothing. Many people like her, but she is only given to a select few.

Since then, and the Order, formed in 1348, is considered a symbol of gallantry.

But we should not forget that together with the garter, these aggressive images are softened.
