Abstract: A shapewear or activewear garment that includes stays carried by the back fabric panel of the garment. In this regard, the stays act as anchors to keep the garment in place. Further, the stays provide tension that pulls the front fabric panel of the garment such that the front panel shapes and smoothes the wearer's midsection and or provides support and also provides resistance to shift when the garment is worn such that the garment does not ride up or down on the wearer.

Abstract: A magnetic clip that attaches a woman's top garment to her bra at the midsection between the bra cups. The clip pulls the woman's top garment down onto the bra and the top garment conforms to the shape of the bra thus increasing the curves of the wearer. A ferric disc on the inside of the midsection of the bra is magnetically attached to a magnet on the outside of the midsection thus squeezing the midsection. A magnet or ferric decoration placed on the outside of the woman's top garment magnetically attaches to the magnet located on the midsection of the bra. The magnets are preferentially neodymium magnets.

Abstract: Ladies' pants has an inside belt portion that is provided with an eyelet buttonhole as a second buttonhole. A moving cloth is provided inside the inside belt portion. A button is sewn on the moving cloth and is taken out from the eyelet buttonhole so as to be movable inside the eyelet buttonhole. If the button is engaged with the second buttonhole, the eyelet buttonhole is hidden under an outside belt portion. Then, the ladies' pants allows a waist size to continuously change, thereby giving a wearer a relaxed and comfortable wearing feeling. A round part of the eyelet buttonhole is located at a position corresponding to nearly a center of the moving cloth when the moving cloth returns to its original position. Then, even if the button is detached, the button can be stitched by scoop sewing through the round part of the eyelet buttonhole. Thus, the button can be surely reattached to the moving cloth.

The garment includes a hospital gown with an elongate main slit located on the back of the hospital gown and extending between the top neck opening and the bottom edge of the hospital gown. The outer side of the front of the hospital gown has spaced apart first, second and third attachment regions. The first attachment region is positioned adjacent the bottom edge of the hospital gown. The second attachment region is positioned between the top neck opening and the first attachment region and the third attachment region is positioned between the first and second attachment regions. The first attachment region is detachably attachable to the second and third attachment regions.

Abstract: A removable clothing conjoiner to attach the waistband of a pants or skirt to a user's shirt or blouse. The base of the conjoiner is made of a material or dimensioned so that it is stiffer in one direction than the other, with the stiffer direction being aligned vertically, thereby preventing rolling, folding, or bunching of the material during use while allowing flexibility in the horizontal direction. The base is coated with adhesive, and the adhesive is covered by removable liners which the user peels off when applying the conjoiner to his/her clothing. The removal tab permits easy separation of the liners from the conjoiner and also permits easy removal of the conjoiner from the clothing so that it can be discarded after use.

Abstract: A method of making and using a removable clothing conjoiner to attach the waistband of a pants or skirt to a user's shirt or blouse. The method takes a material which is made or dimensioned to be stiffer in one direction than the other and cuts the material so as to place that stiffer direction vertically, thereby preventing rolling, folding, or bunching of the material during use while allowing flexibility in the horizontal direction for wearer comfort. The base is coated with adhesive, and the adhesive is covered by removable liners which the user peels off when applying the conjoiner to his/her clothing.

Abstract: An adjustable elastic system supports a body encircling band or the belt of a lower body garment from an upper body garment, using multiple straps removably and adjustably attached by means of loop material-hook material couples to the inside lining of the upper garment. The lower end of each elastic strap includes a hitch which is slipped under the belt by means of an integral tab.

Abstract: A support for a brassiere shoulder strap has an elongate bridge plate of desired rigidity with a curvature sized and shaped to form-fit on a woman's shoulder beneath a brassiere strap between an area proximate the clavicle bone in the front and a position proximate a downward-curving rear portion of the shoulder. A bottom surface of the bridge plate is provided with walls, at least two of which are recessed, surrounding a cushion receptacle into which a cushion pad can be inserted and held in cushioning relationship between the bridge plate and the woman's shoulder. The cushion pad can be attached to and detached from the bridge plate conveniently and easily for cleaning, servicing and replacement. The elongate bridge plate can be shaped variously, preferably having a generally elliptical form. Each shoulder strap of a brassiere is positioned on top of a bridge plate and extended down through a T-shaped strap-attachment bay and onto a shoulder of the woman forwardly and rearwardly.

Abstract: A new and improved clothing anchor apparatus, especially useful for anchoring the front and back tails of shirts, includes a first clothing connector, a second clothing connector, and an elastic strap connected therebetween. The elastic strap has a first end, an interior portion, and a second end. A strap length adjuster is located on the interior portion of the strap for adjusting the effective length of the strap. The effective length of the strap is adjusted by adjustingly doubling a portion of the strap. A soft, flexible jacket encompasses a portion of the elastic strap and the strap length adjuster. The jacket may also include a pocket for receiving and secretly storing soft, flexible items such as paper money. In use, preferably, two clothing anchor apparatuses of the invention are used. One clothing connector of each apparatus is attached to the front shirt tail, and the other clothing connector of each apparatus is attached to the back shirt tail by first passing under the crotch area.

Abstract: A disposable garment of pants type, such as a disposable diaper of pants type, is constructed by attaching respective leg-hole surrounding flaps and waist-hole surrounding flaps to respective opposite side edges extending longitudinally of a basic assembly for the garment which comprises at least a topsheet and a backsheet. The leg-hole surrounding flaps and the waist-hole surrounding flaps respectively cooperate to form a pair of leg-holes. A pair of shoulder straps can be easily prepared by making a slit which extends longitudinally of the garment on each waist-hole surrounding flap. A disposable garment of the present invention is featured in its simple construction and easy production.
