What Wikipedia says

Hold-ups or stay-ups (in the United States also referred to as thigh-high stockings or simply thigh highs) are a form of stockings with an elasticised band at the top. They are designed to hold themselves up on the thigh when worn, without the use of a suspender or garter belt.
