The undergarment may include a multi-panel front construction in order to minimize the prominence of breast buds, nipples, and even mature breast tissue without sports bra-like compression. The garments are uniquely designed to maximize comfort with their super-soft external material and to maximize self-esteem with their unique inner front panel. The interior front panel is constructed from a different material than the external layers.

A unified garment and method of use thereof are provided wherein the garment that includes a pair of adjustable panels that alternately enable (1.) covering a selected portion of skin of a wearer of the garment; and (2.) exposing the selected portion of the wearer's skin without requiring the wearer to disrobe from the garment. Each panel extends from a same inferior portion of the garment and are detachably attachable at respective attachment points to cause a tension to be imposed between each attachment point and the inferior portion. The garment may include a first pair of apertures adapted to each separately receive a wearer's arm and/or a second pair of apertures adapted to each separately receive a wearer's leg. The garment allows exposure of a wearer's skin to enable direct contact between the garment wearer and the skin of another person for the practice of skin to skin contact.

A bioindicator assembly for determining a level of CO.sub.2 in a surrounding environment includes an article and a bioindicator component applied to the article. The bioindicator component includes a composite fabric that has a substrate, wherein a biodegradable material is applied to the substrate, a membrane that is coupled with the composite fabric to define an interior cavity, the membrane being semi-permeable, a bioindicator that changes color, form, shape, or texture when exposed to CO.sub.2, and an attachment mechanism coupled to a rear side of the composite fabric.

This Invention relates to a new and novel customizable women's undergarment or slip, consisting of multiple pieces; a top portion with straps and a lace cleavage cover, a middle slip and a bottom slip. The present invention can be adjusted in various ways, the parts can extend from a top portion with straps detachably connected to a short length half slip and further detachably connected to a long length half slip, when combined these results in a longer full length slip. The top portion can be worn separately as a camisole with or without straps, the middle piece detaches as a short half slip and the bottom piece detaches as a long half slip.
