Included are articles such as garments including polymer film compositions to alter the stress profile of the garment which is exhibited during wear of the garment. The polymer film may be bonded to the fabric to provide a fabric/film laminate.

Various embodiments of a clip-on pouch to be attached to an article of clothing providing storage and immediate access to small items such as credit cards or spare keys for a home, car, or locker. The clip-on pouch is designed to be comfortable and concealable even when worn on undergarments. One embodiment provides storage for at least one spare key.

A garment adjustment system includes a garment, a flexible strap, and a buckle. The garment adjustment system is useful for decreasing and alternately increasing the size of an opening of a garment so that the garment obtains a more fashionable and alternately useful function for a user-wearer.

An article of clothing, such as a dress shirt, blouse, coat, jacket, or vest, includes a sheet of material forming a body portion. First and second plackets are formed along respective first and second end portions of the sheet of material. First and second magnetic elements, each being encased in an encasement, are secured inside first and second pockets, respectively, such that positions of the plurality of second magnetic elements correspond to positions of the plurality of first magnetic elements.

A seamless garment constructed out of a single piece of material will allow for a reduction in manufacturing costs and a lengthened life of the garment due to its simplicity of design and lack of seams. The garment may consist of a single piece of material divided into two panels by a pair of cuts, each extending toward the other, partway through the body of the piece of material. The garment may be secured to the body of a wearer via a variety of attachment mechanisms.

This is a new take on water resistant materials and garment assembly. This invention will prevent liquid from permeating from the inside to the outside of a garment. The main use for this invention is for a garment to be worn over existing wet garments and skin. The beauty of this invention is that since the internal barrier prevents liquid transfer through it, the outer layer of the garment can be composed of water absorbent material, if so desired, and remain dry.

An upper body garment for supporting an infant adjacent the chest and upper belly of a wearer that includes a tubular garment body made from a stretchable fabric and comprising a front panel and a back panel, one or more breast panels extending from a top portion of the back panel and over the shoulders of the wearer; and a pouch panel extending from a lower portion of the breast panels. The pouch panel is secured along a U-shaped seam to an inside surface of the front panel to form a pouch with a top opening proximate the lower portion of the breast panels. The stretchable fabric is a two-way stretchable fabric with an increased capability for elastic expansion within a substantially horizontal plane when the wearer is in an upright position.
