An apparatus for coupling and decoupling button and loop connections of a garment. The apparatus includes a longitudinally extending body member having a handle member extending from a first end and a pair of prongs extending from an oppositely disposed second end. One prong has a hook on its distal end and the other prong has an expanded end member on its distal end. The prongs are generally parallel with one another forming a gap therebetween such that upon insertion of the prongs into a loop, the prongs cooperate to open the loop and position the loop relative to a button such that rotation of the apparatus about an axis of rotation defined through the prongs proximate the hook and the expanded end causes the loop to be moved relative to the button, thereby coupling or decoupling the loop and the button.

A method for pulling a button through a buttonhole includes a shirt with a button and a buttonhole wherein the button and the buttonhole define a mated coupler. A clamp engages the button and a tether is attached to the clamp. The clamp is extended through the buttonhole and the button is engaged with the clamp while the tether extends through the buttonhole. The clamp and the button are pulled through the buttonhole and the button is released from the clamp.
