Description

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a bra strap adjustment clip illustrated in use with a bra showing my new design;

FIG. 2 is a perspective view thereof;

FIG. 3 is a top plan view with the bottom plan view being a mirror image thereof;

FIG. 4 is a front elevation view thereof;

FIG. 5 is a back elevation view thereof;

FIG. 6 is a right side elevation view thereof; and,

FIG. 7 is a left side elevation view thereof.

In FIG. 1, the broken lines represent unclaimed environment subject matter and form no part of the claimed design. Likewise, the dash-dot-dot lines represent boundary lines that form no part of the claimed design.

The present invention is a secondary product for use with an already manufactured bra. It is not intended to replace current bra strap adjusters that are built into the bra. The present invention recognizes that a woman's breasts size changes due to a) hormones and b) weight fluctuation and/or exercise. The present invention also recognizes that repeated use of a bra causes it to stretch out and, as a result, change in size and fit. Therefore, the present invention consumes extra slack, shortens and adjusts bra straps so women can have a more comfortable fit, better support, and increase the longevity of their bras.

Claims

The ornamental design for a bra strap adjustment clip, as shown and described.
