Abstract

A garment includes a main body, an appendant member, and at least one elastic fabric. The appendant member is connected to the main body. The elastic fabric has a first edge and a second edge at two opposite sides thereof, and a third edge and a fourth edge at two opposite sides thereof. The first edge and the second edge are connected to a surface of the appendant member; the third edge is located near where the main body and the appendant member are connected. The third edge and the fourth edge are not connected to the appendant member. Whereby, in addition to cover body parts above a neck of a wearer by the appendant member, the garment can further be used to cover a head, a face, or the neck of the wearer with the at least one elastic fabric, which enhances the protection function.

Take a hoodie for example, in order to keep warm or to prevent sunburn, a wearer can optionally put on the hood of a hoodie to block the wind, sunlight, or any unwanted substances. However, even when the hood is put on, some spaces are still left between the hood and the head, for the inner surface of the hood does not perfectly fit the head of...
