Straps for holding up trousers (6)

I believe the answer is:

braces

(Other definitions for braces that I've seen before include "bolsters" , "Supports for teeth or trousers" , "Appliances to correct dental irregularities" , "More than one couple" , "Supports for men's trousers" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
