  • Patent number: 4866791
    Abstract: A woman's sport shirt that normally functions as a waist-length T-shirt having a circular neck opening and short sleeves. The waist hem of the shirt is provided on opposite sides thereof with complementary snap buttons, or similar hand-operated connectors. When worn by a woman, the shirt is readily convertible into a halter-like garment by raising the waist hem above the midriff, then lifting the front section of the skirt above the head and rolling it behind the neck to create a yoke joining left and right portions of the front section which are then drawn across the bust of the wearer and interconnected by the snap buttons to form a bra-like bust support above the exposed midriff.
