  • Publication number: 20220295909
    Abstract: Designing garments that include brassiere cups can be challenging due to the natural fluctuation of a woman's breast size, as well as a possible disconnect between the size of her breasts and the size of the rest of her body. The high range of size variability places pressure on stores to stock inventories that include great ranges of sizes. This places an inventory risk to the store, since rarer sizes may never sell. The disclosed garment addresses these issues by including a fit-adjustable brassiere portion. The cups of the fit-adjustable brassiere portion include fit-modifying panels that increase their flexibility and elasticity. The rear side of the fit-adjustable brassiere portion includes a back adjuster with highly elastic regions that enables the brassiere portion to fit a broader range of chest sizes. Each of these features give the garment a more universal fit and enable stores to carry fewer sizes.

    Abstract: Apparatus and associated methods relate to two or more hair wefts defined by respective filamentous cortices to which hair is secured, which cortices are secured together along their length by at least one binding filament, and to which cortices are coupled an elastic filament to form a hair extension configured such that the cortices and elastic filament are configured to circumscribe a wearer's head. In an illustrative example, a plurality of deformable beads may be disposed between the hair wefts and configured to releasably secure the hair extension to a wearer's natural hair. Each hair weft may, for example, have a plurality of individual hair bundles. Hair bundles may, for example, be separated by a predetermined cut point in the filamentous cortex. Various implementations may advantageously provide a visually undetectable, comfortable, and durable hair extension for a wearer.

    Abstract: Apparatus and associated methods relate to a retaining module coupled to headwear to selectively increase friction between the headwear and a user's head. In an illustrative example, the retaining module includes a coupling region coupled to an inner surface of the headwear. The retaining module may, for example, include an engaging region extending from the coupling region and including a retaining surface. The retaining module may be configured, for example, such that the engaging region is selectively operable between a stowed mode in which the retaining surface is substantially separated from the wearer's head by a portion of the headwear, and a deployed mode in which the retaining surface engages the wearer's head such that a coefficient of friction between the head and the headwear is increased relative to the stowed mode. Various embodiments may advantageously provide selectable levels of resistance to removal of the headwear.
