Abstract

A gown with pleated opening for discrete elimination of urine and method of manufacture provides privacy to the wearer of a gown while the wearer eliminates urine through the penis. The gown has a gown body with an open posterior side that can be closed with a fastener. The gown has an opposing anterior side defined by a central section, which is approximately aligned with the penis when the gown is donned. The groin section forms a vertical slit that is sized to enable the wearer to easily egress and ingress a urine bottle, or the penis for elimination of urine. The slit is visibly not obvious when viewed from the front of the gown body because of one or more pleats that selectively cover the slit. The pleats are integral with the gown, formed along the longitudinal of the slit from the extra loose fabric from the central section.
