AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0007]At least some of the above described problems can be addressed by exemplary embodiments of the apparel and method of making such apparel according to the present disclosure. For example, using such exemplary embodiments, it is possible to provide arrangements or manufacture intended or structured for use in connection with shorts, pants, jeans, skirts or trousers that have the effect of slimming and / or shaping a middle section of a human body, and possibly improving the fit of the garment. Such exemplary arrangements or manufactures can comprise an interior lining that can extend across the back of the garment which can effectively extend across a buttocks portion of the human body when worn thereby. A separate lining may also be provided that can be attached to the interior of the front pockets of the garment at or near the hip portions of the human body when worn.

[0008]According to one exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, a garment arrangement can be provided which can include a rear panel having at least one portion of an elastic material structured to be provided at least partially (i) adjacent and / or (ii) directly or indirectly coupled to a rear portion of a body of a wearer of the garment arrangement. The rear panel can be configured to facilitate at least one tightening force on the rear portion of the body of the wearer. The garment arrangement can also include a front panel having at least one portion of a rigid material, and structured to be provided at least partially (i) adjacent and / or (ii) directly or indirectly coupled to a front portion of the body of the wearer. The front panel can provide a constricting force on the front portion of the body of the wearer, and the rear panel and the front panel can be connected to one another.

Problems solved by technology

Unfortunately, many women and men find they cannot shape their profile to reverse the aging process, effects of gravity, or their genetic features.

These procedures, however, are very costly, can create scaring, and have other undesirable problems.

Unfortunately, layers of such foundation garments with other clothing can be uncomfortable for some wearers, and unsightly with certain styles of clothing.

However, these built-in garments can have drawbacks, including constructions which merely hold-in a stomach or the buttocks of a wearer's body.

Such constructions can be ill-suited for consumers who may want garments that accentuate their body shape, instead of only squeezing or holding the stomach or the buttocks.

However, none in the market include a body profile enhancing system, particularly for the abdominal and gluteal region of a wearer.

Moreover, due to the stretch nature of the material, foundation garments used to offset profile changes may not be usually suitable because their outline typically shows through the stretched fabric creating an unappealing affect.
