Embodiment Construction

[0019]The preferred embodiment of the instant invention discloses a winged glove / sleeve combination device that is constructed of fabrics that have two-way stretch. Some examples of fabrics like this include: LYCRA®, lightweight LYCRA® or spandex. The two-way stretch allows for the best fit and the best structure for a device that can bear the weight and size of the wing. Accordingly, the weight of the fabric has little impact on whether or not it will stay in place during movement. This two-way stretch fabric allows the sleeve to stay in place even during vigorous movements, including dancing and playing. The inherent structure of the wearer's arm along with the two-way stretch fabric synergistically prevents the entire unit from slipping down, no matter the size, shape or proportions of the wing portion or any other attachments.

[0020]Turning to the drawings, the preferred embodiment is illustrated and described by reference characters that denote similar elements throughout the se...

Description of the Prior Art[0005]In human experience, it is often the case that a person wishes to dress up as a being with wings, such as a bird, an insect, a fairy and the like. In the past, fabricated wings have been offered that protrude from the back of the wearer. The primary construction of prior art that create the illusion of a human with wings have included acrylic or other materials that cover the wire construction that forms the wing portion. Primarily, an elastic material...
