ABSTRACT:
The garment construction comprises a waistline arrangement for encircling a wearer's waist, at least one front garment panel having an upper edge thereof secured to a front portion of the waistline arrangement, and at least one rear garment panel having an upper edge thereof secured to a rear portion of the waistline arrangement. A first lateral joining arrangement is provided for joining the left lateral edges of said garment panels, together with a second lateral joining arrangement for joining the right lateral edges of the panels. At least one of the lateral joining arrangements is quick-detachable to provide a closable garment opening thereby. Juxtaposed to the quick-detachable lateral joining arrangement is a quick-detachable waistline joining arrangement for detachably joining the ends of the waistline area. Front and rear garment panels have bifurcate configurations, together with means for quick-detachably joining the inward bifurcate edges of these panels to form a severable crotch for the garment construction, whereby the garment can be donned and doffed in wrap-around fashion.
Also disclosed is a quick-detachable means for joining a rear panel of the garment to the waistline arrangement so that the rear panel can be quickly detached from the waistline arrangement and from the crotch area of the garment. In this way the rear panel can be folded generally over the front panel of the garment for attendance to physical functions and the like. The severable waistline feature of my garment construction is also applicable to skirt type garments.
