Abstract

See full text

A shape retaining collar device for use with garments of wearing apparel as for example, a shirt having a torso covering segment. The shape retaining collar device in the garment construction includes a first fabric portion which is attachable to the torso covering segment and which is generally non-exposed to a viewer. This first fabric portion may be in the form of a band for attachment to the garment and extending outwardly from the first fabric portion is a second fabric portion in the form of a collar which essentially forms a neckline for the garment. Moreover, the second fabric portion terminates in a pair of edges which are forwardly presented to a viewer of the collar. A channel is formed within the second fabric portion for receiving a collar stay and a channel is also formed in the first fabric portion for receiving an integrally formed tab on this collar stay. The tab is located at an acute angle with respect to the collar stay and is relatively rigid to retain the shape of the collar at least at an acute angle with respect to the first fabric portion.
