DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0016] As illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 3, an embodiment of the present invention comprises a seat area 1, a waist area 2, two back pockets 31, 32 and a tape 4. The two back pockets 31, 32 are provided symmetrically at an outer side 11 of the seat area 1 respectively. Each of the back pockets 31, 32 has an outer lateral edge 311, 321, an inner lateral edge 312, 322 opposite the outer lateral edge 311, 321, and a bottom edge 313, 323 connecting a lower end of the outer lateral edge 311, 321 and a lower end of the inner lateral edge 312, 322. The tape 4 is attached to an inner side 12 of the seat area 1 corresponding to each of the back pockets 31, 32, such that the tape 4 extends downwardly from the waist area 2 along and inside a stitching line 3111, 3211 of the outer lateral edge 311, 321 of the back pocket 31, 32 to the lower end of the outer lateral edge 311, 321, then extends laterally from the lower end of the outer lateral edge 311, 321 along and inside a stitching line 3131, 3231 of the bottom edge 313, 323 to the lower end of the inner lateral edge 312, 322, and finally extends upwardly from the lower end of the inner lateral edge 312, 322 along and inside a stitching line 3121, 3221 of the inner lateral edge 312, 322 to the waist area 2. In this embodiment, an upper outer portion 41 of the tape 4 between the waist area 2 and a top end of the stitching line 3111, 3211 of the outer lateral edge 311, 321 of the back pocket 31, 32 and an upper inner portion 42 of the tape 4 between the waist area 2 and a top end of the stitching line 3121, 3221 of the inner lateral edge 312, 322 of the back pocket 31, 32 are left loose and not attached to the inner side 12 of the seat area 1. This has the advantage of preventing the stitching lines of the upper outer portion 41 and upper inner portion 42 of the tape 4 from being visible at the outer side 11 of the seat area 1. However, in an alternative embodiment, the entire tape 4 may be sewn to the inner side 12 of the seat area 1. The tape 4 is made of a non-elastic fabric, which in this embodiment is a fabric consisting of 100% polyester. The tape 4 is effective in maintaining the position of the seat area 1 of the bottom garment, thereby achieving buttock lifting effect.

[0017] In this embodiment, the waist area 2 is in form of a contour waistband made of a plurality of waistband members sewn together. The plurality of waistband members comprises an outside left front waistband 21, an outside right front waistband 22, an inside right front waistband 23, an inside left front waistband 24, an outside back waistband 25 and an inside back waistband 26. The inside back waistband 26 is made of an elastic fabric which in this embodiment is an elastic fabric consisting of 30% polypropylene, 30% polyester and 40% latex. The inside back waistband 26 made in this manner is effective in keeping the inside back waistband 26 to fit around the wearer's waist so that the buttock lifting effect is enhanced.

[0018] In this embodiment, the bottom garment is a mid-rise bottom garment. The bottom garment is made of a stretchable fabric and sewn with strong and stretchable threads. The stretchable fabric is stretchable in all directions with an elongation percentage of over 30-50% and a stretch recovery percentage of less than 6% fabric growth on weft stretch direction. For example, the stretchable fabric may be a fabric consisting of 72.25% cotton, 25.25% polyester and 2.5% of spandex, a fabric consisting of 87.5% cotton, 9.8% polyester and 2.7% of Lycra, or a fabric consisting of 72.2% of cotton, 25.3% of Elasterell-P and 2.5% of Lycra. The strong and stretchable threads may for example comprise a needle thread with a Tex size of 60, a Metric size of 50, a Denier Size Finished/Ply of 625.64/3, a strength of 4.51 lbs. and an elongation (elongation at break (%)) of 48.74, and a bobbin thread with a Tex size of 105, a Metric size of 27, a Denier Size Finished/Ply of 1170.58/3, a strength of 8.15 lbs. and an elongation (elongation at break (%)) of 52.47.

[0019] In this embodiment, the bottom garment has back side belt loops 5 extending from top of the waist area 2 to back yoke 6 of the bottom garment. The bottom garment is configured to provide at least a tight fit between the bottom garment and wearer's legs. The back pockets are positioned and sized in such a way so that the back pockets are centrally positioned in relation to two sides of wearer's buttock respectively.

[0020] The above embodiment is an embodiment of the present invention. The present invention is capable of other embodiments and is not limited by the above embodiments. Any other variation, decoration, substitution, combination or simplification, whether in substance or in principle, not deviated from the spirit of the present invention, is replacement or substitution of equivalent effect and falls within the scope of protection of the present invention.
