The double clip support body includes two permanently interlocked U-shaped spring clips oriented in opposite directions and interchangeable grips arranged on the U-shaped spring clips to adjust the spacing of the springs, and correspondingly, the spring tension, of the U-shaped spring clips. Grips having different characteristics can be interchanged with one another on the support body based on the thickness of, and/or type of, material used for each of the top garment and the bottom garment.
