Apparel with built-in undergarment

Apparel with built-in undergarment description/claims

In the modern world most ladies want to appear trim and thus the advent of various figure enhancing undergarments. The typical woman has various styles of dresses, skirts and pants, some of which are designed to be tighter fitting than others. A tight fitting outer garment may require a different undergarment than a more loosely fitting dress. Thus a lady must take the time to choose an appropriate undergarment and the time to sequentially fit the undergarment and the outer garment. While adjustable corsets have been used, such require excessive time and effort to adjust and fit.

This invention provides apparel with a built-in form-shaping undergarment. The undergarment includes a relatively wide band encircling its attachment location made from an elasticized material such as SPANDEX which will not roll and which retains it shape after multiple cleanings. The undergarment has downwardly or upwardly extending (or both) contoured shaping layers of SPANDEX type material, which minimally forms an undergarment that provides the desired fit for the lady and may affect the shape of the outer garment to which it is attached.
