Embodiment Construction

[0029] Having ones shirt or blouse gradually, or in some case relatively rapidly, pull out of ones trousers, slacks, skirt or kilts is a common experience. The rapidity of movement of such upper garment out of close or snug engagement with the lower garment depends to a large extent upon how much movement is made by the wearer of the garments. Thus, if one is engaged in athletics or is doing a lot of getting in and out of vehicles such as engaged in by deliverymen or policemen and, especially if one is frequently reaching upwardly placing tension on the upper portions of ones shirt or blouse the movement of ones shirt or blouse or the like upwardly out of a tucked position in ones lower garment may be relatively rapid or, indeed, in some cases, essentially instantaneous.

[0004] 2. Preliminary Discussion [0005] When shirts, shirtwaists and the like are worn with their bottom or lower portions extending under, or tucked under, or inside a pair of trousers, slacks or a skirt, such shirt or the like will frequently as the wearer moves tend to work out of its tucked position until there is more than enough of the material of the shirt or shirtwaist above the top ...
