Hose holder (6)
I believe the answer is:
garter
'hose holder' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for garter that I've seen before include "Band to hold up a stocking" , "Band worn on leg" , "- Belt; - snake; - stitch" , "It holds a stocking up" , "Band to keep a stocking or sleeve up" .)
