ABSTRACT:
A garment pouch for retaining and concealing small personal valuables. One or more concealed hemline pockets are provided in an undergarment shirt or blouse, the upper edges of which preferably lie adjacent the hemline. The closure for the pocket, which is co-extensive with stitching above the selvage and the lower edge of the pocket, comprises the selvage itself. The closure or closures for the pockets are in-line with the hem stitching line, defining a continuity thereof. If one closure is provided, it may function to close two or more adjacent pockets or pouches in the hem, the pockets being devisable from each other by vertical stitching from hemline to selvage. The pockets may be made easily accessible from either the exterior or interior of the garment and may also be adapted to sportswear having the undergarment as an integral part of the whole, for example, as in golf skirts, tennis and swimwear having outerskirt and inner pants. The wearer of the garment pouch need not undress to retrieve the valuables quickly and easily from any of the garment pocket locations.
