    Those are called flashes. Essentially they're colored ribbon for decoration attached to elastic garters to hold the hose up. The colors I like best are ones that pick up one of the colors in the kilt. As for the length, it should hang a couple inches or so below the turnover of the hose. I also made a pair of garters without flashes for those times I don't have appropriately colored flashes, they're just elastic straps with velcro on the ends.
