ABSTRACT:
An invisible seam assembly for garments and the like, comprising: a non-extensible, but flexible elongated band having a plurality of hooks molded integrally therewith and projecting perpendicularly therefrom, affixable to an inner surface of a garment portion along a seam path; and, an elongated elastic cord affixed to an elongated carrier strip at a plurality of spaced points, defining a plurality of loops enabling the hooks to snugly engage the cord, the carrier strip being affixable to another garment portion. The elasticity of the cord imparts yieldability to the engaged seam and the integrally formed band and hooks impart stability to the engaged seam, whereby the garment portions may be detachably but reliably connected to one another. Such invisible seam assemblies may be incorporated into a modular clothes outfit made from sheer or fine fabrics, for example a wedding gown.
