Abstract

Abstract An elongated element has two ends, each of which is attached to a garment a spaced distance apart from each other to form a loop with the garment, the spaced distance being determined by the structure of an object which the loop is designed to hold in close proximity to the wearer of the garment. The loop can be formed with the collar, a pocket, seam or on a surface of the garment.
