ABSTRACT:
A head wear system including a sizing band and a hat. The sizing band is distinct from the hat. The hat comprises a bill and a cap having an opening at the back as well as a headband. The head wear system also includes a first and second adjustment means for selectively nondestructively attaching each end of the sizing band to the hat in a longitudinal relationship therebetween selected by the wearer. When the sizing band is attached to the hat by the first and second adjusting means, the sizing band extends across the opening of the cap. The head wear system also comprises an ornament, a cover means for accessorizing the hat, and an attachment means for selectively nondestructively connecting the cover means and ornament to the crown of the cap. One embodiment of the sizing band functions as a skin stencil and comprises a substrate transparent to ultraviolet radiation and a design opaque to ultraviolet radiation that is attached to the substrate. When the substrate contacts the skin of a wearer the ultraviolet radiation causes the skin under the substrate to tan. At the same time, the design blocks the ultraviolet radiation and causes the skin directly under the design to be unaffected by the ultraviolet radiation resulting in a shadow having the configuration of the design being formed in the skin of the wearer.
