Abstract

Alterable clothing uses sliding clasp closures to attach sections of different lengths to a main item of clothing. The purpose is to attach, for instance, varying lengths of arm sections to a shirt or jacket or varying lengths of leg sections to a pair of trousers or slacks using two-part sliding clasp fasteners as the means of connection. This results in a more effective use of any one item of clothing through making it suitable for wear under different conditions and for varying purposes.

Description

Description with patent claim

Attachment and change parts to be connected by means of a zipper outer clothing articles prepared for this purpose for the purpose of their changeability in constraints and Appearance (Variation Apparel) The invention described below is as one New variant of the outerwear articles kept in previous shapes and designs such as trousers, skirts, dresses, coats, sweaters, (knitted) jackets, shirts and the like.

With this new design variant, fully separable connecting elements such as two-part zippers, complete legs on trousers and skirts as well as complete ones Sleeve parts on sweaters, cardigans and the like are attached or replaced.

From the sketches listed in Appendix 3 (Fig. 1-3 and sectional drawings A-D) the structure and mode of operation of this invention can be seen: - The section of a such garment that is worn as a length-adjustable garment should (Fig. 1) or its 3ein- or arm parts variable in length or interchangeable should be (Fig. 2u.3), consists of at least 2 or more individual parts: each depending on the item of clothing (trousers, skirt, coat or sweater) in different lengths (1) held main or body part (1) and the attachment part (2). - Both on the respective Body part (1) as well as on the attachment part (2) are at the connection or separation points (3) one zipper strip (half a zipper) (3a / 3b) on the entire circumference sewn in.

By attaching the zipper halves of the parts that belong together (1) and (2) and then tightening the lock creates a complete connection of the attached parts and e.g. a normal-length women's skirt in a fashionable one Maxi skirt or short-legged (beach) pants converted into long pants.

The neck part can be: a) for trousers: long, elongated trouser leg, Enie (bund) trouser leg b) for skirt, small, coat: longer legs c) for knitwear long sleeves for sweaters, and shirts: cardigan, shirt each according to the type of garment variation and accentuation of its connection or Separation point (3), the zipper can either be fully visible (section A) or by sewing the zipper panels in half or fully covered (7a / 3b sectional images B-D) as well as various accessories such as folds of fabric (5 sectional view c), overlay ribs and belt dummies (5a section D) or the like can be worn concealed. - From the Sectional images A-D are some exemplary embodiments of the connection point | Separation point can be seen from the fuselage and attachment part. This means: 1 = body part, 2 = attachment part, 3a = zip fastener strip with fastening flag on the body part, 3b = zip fastener strip with Fastening flag on the attachment part, 4 = cover fold, 5 = cover fold, 5a = cover flange, Belt dummy, 6 = underlay, 7 = sewn seam connection.

The zipper slider (8) should be in terms of manufacture on the on the attachment part (2) attached zipper web (3b) are so when wearing of the variation garment without attachment part (in the short state) of the closure slider not "wandering around".

The slide fastener is in the state connected to the attachment part (2) (8) by means of its locking mechanism against unintentional, automatic opening of the lock and thus to secure against loosening of the attachment parts6. he zipper should be sewn into the body and attachment parts in such a way that when the lock is closed and thus the position of the slide fastener when the body and attachment part are connected is in a clear and non-obstructive place (for variation trousers e.g. in the front part of the inner leg (9)).

Advantages of the variation garment compared to the same garment Conventional design: 1. The variation garment is 2 garments in one.

Both in the incomplete and in the completed state each one is absolutely equivalent to the conventional type of clothing. Ever after execution and identification of the connection point between the fuselage and the attachment part can the Variation garment not or hardly as such be recognized.

2. Easy, quick and everywhere feasible length variation Attachment or separation of the attachment parts without changing the entire garment 3. A wide range of possible combinations of body and attachment parts through individual Gradation of cut, color, pattern and material 4. individual adaptability the season and temperature as well as how it is carried (whether in the house, in the car, when traveling (without a lot of luggage) or for smaller jobs, such as long sweater sleeves are inappropriate) 5. Convenient replacement when dirty, stained or tattered Attachment part without renouncing the entire clothing 6. Possibility of variation different fashion directions e.g.

Mini - Midi - Maxi with just one item of clothing or a combination from "Hot pants - Bermuda shorts - long pants" Blank page
