  • Patent number: 4663782
    Abstract: Breast feeding blouses are designed to provide minimum exposure of a wearer's breast during feeding. In one form of the invention, a blouse has a pair of pocket size openings for the wearer's breasts, and flaps for covering the openings. Each flap is secured along a top portion thereof to the garment above the respective opening for upward raising of the flap to uncover the opening only to the extent necessary for an infant to obtain access to the wearer's nipple. Another form of breast feeding garment has a pair of substantially horizontal slits for providing access to the wearer's breasts for feeding and a downwardly depending horizontal pleat for covering the slits and providing access thereto by lifting portions of the pleat. The flaps or pleat, as the case may be, may have loop and pile-type friction fastener strips for securing same to the garment in a down position.
