An accessory for the matching of garments is provided that includes a strip of a flexible material having first and second ends with a fastening element at each end. The fastening elements are preferably in the form of clamps. The fastening elements and the strip may be colored and made of a material that does not damage the garments. The strip may also include cooperating elements intermediate its ends for securing the strip in a folded condition.

The invention provides a system for preventing sheet slippage having a sheet retention device configured to at least partially underlie a mattress having a first flat member having a first surface; at least one second flat member attached to the first flat member having a second surface, where the first and second flat members have a closed configuration where the first and second surfaces oppose each other, an open configuration where the first and second surfaces are perpendicular to each other, and an infinite number of positions in between the open and closed configurations; and at least one retaining member in communication with the first surface. The invention also provides a method for using the invented system for preventing sheet slippage.

Disclosed are various embodiments for retaining a sheet on a mattress. A membrane comprising a plurality of extensions disposed along the perimeter of the membrane is displaced underneath a mattress. The extensions of the membrane are composed of an elastic material and the membrane is composed of a material that generates sufficient friction when in contact with the mattress to be displaced. The extensions are configured to retract to an original length, wherein the original length of each extension corresponds to a size of the mattress. Additionally, the extensions are disposed at a distance apart from each other so as to substantially retain a sheet applied on the mattress.
