Fashion Article Having a Concealed Storage Cavity

Abstract

A wrist worn clothing article having a hidden pocket which may be displayed without removal from an elongated body such as a bracelet attached to the wrist or angle of the user. In one mode the pocket is rotatable from a hidden sandwiched engagement between two layers of the bracelet to an exposed position where the user may access it or a third party may view the ID in the pocket. A tactile communication section formed in the body of the article, allows touch and contact communications to the skin of the user from a dance partner while wearing the device.

What is claimed: 
     
         1 . A wrist-worn apparatus, comprising:
 an elongated planar body formed of pliable material;   said body having a first side surface opposite a second side surface;   said body having a length running between a proximal edge opposite a distal edge, said length adapted for circumferential engagement around an arm of a user to a mounted position;   a pocket positioned in a pocket portion of said body on said first side of said body adjacent said distal edge;   first cooperative fasteners positioned on said first side surface adjacent a first edge of said pocket closest to said proximal end;   mating fasteners to said first cooperative fasteners, said mating fasteners positioned on said second side surface; and   engagement of said first cooperative fasteners to said mating fasteners forming a first engagement holding said pocket portion and said pocket adjacent to and overlapping said second surface adjacent said proximal end of said body; and   said pocket portion rotatable at said first engagement to expose said pocket.   
     
     
         2 . The wrist-worn apparatus of  claim 1 , additionally comprising:
 second cooperative fasteners positioned on said first side surface adjacent said distal end;   mating fasteners to said cooperative fasteners, said mating fasteners positioned on said second side surface; and   engagement of said second cooperative fasteners to said mating fasteners to said second cooperative fasteners forming a second engagement, said second engagement holding said pocket portion and said pocket adjacent said second surface and thereby preventing rotation of said pocket portion to expose said pocket.   
     
     
         3 . The wrist-worn apparatus of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a tactile communication section formed in said body in-between said pocket and said proximal end;   a plurality of passages communicating through said body within said tactile communication section; and   said passages defining areas for fingertip communication through the body of the wrist-worn apparatus for a partner dancer to directly touch the arm of a wearer thereof.   
     
     
         4 . The wrist-worn apparatus of  claim 2 , further comprising:
 a tactile communication section formed in said body in-between said pocket and said proximal end;   a plurality of passages communicating through said body within said tactile communication section; and   said passages defining areas for fingertip communication through the body of the wrist-worn apparatus for a partner dancer to directly touch the arm of a wearer thereof.   
     
     
         5 . The wrist-worn apparatus of  claim 3 , further comprising:
 said tactile communication section defined by an aperture communicating through said body;   sheer fabric positioned within said aperture; and   said plurality of passages communicating through said sheer fabric.   
     
     
         6 . The wrist-worn apparatus of  claim 4 , further comprising:
 said tactile communication section defined by an aperture communicating through said body;   sheer fabric positioned within said aperture; and   said plurality of passages communicating through said sheer fabric.   
     
     
         7 . The wrist-worn apparatus of  claim 3 , wherein a length of said tactile communication section between a first end closest to said proximal end of said body, and a second end closest to said distal end of said body, is between 40 to 75 percent of said length of said body. 
     
     
         8 . The wrist-worn apparatus of  claim 4 , wherein a length of said tactile communication section between a first end closest to said proximal end of said body, and a second end closest to said distal end of said body, is between 40 to 75 percent of said length of said body. 
     
     
         9 . The wrist-worn apparatus of  claim 5 , wherein a length of said tactile communication section between a first end closest to said proximal end of said body, and a second end closest to said distal end of said body, is between 40 to 75 percent of said length of said body. 
     
     
         10 . The wrist-worn apparatus of  claim 6 , wherein a length of said tactile communication section between a first end closest to said proximal end of said body, and a second end closest to said distal end of said body, is between 40 to 75 percent of said length of said body. 
     
     
         11 . The wrist-worn apparatus of  claim 7 , wherein a total aggregate area of said passages communicating through the body, is between 25-80 percent of the actual area of the tactile communication section. 
     
     
         12 . The wrist-worn apparatus of  claim 8 , wherein a total aggregate area of said passages communicating through the body, is between 25-80 percent of the actual area of the tactile communication section. 
     
     
         13 . The wrist-worn apparatus of  claim 9 , wherein a total aggregate area of said passages communicating through the body, is between 25-80 percent of the actual area of the tactile communication section. 
     
     
         14 . The wrist-worn apparatus of  claim 10 , wherein a total aggregate area of said passages communicating through the body, is between 25-80 percent of the actual area of the tactile communication section. 
     
     
         15 . A wrist-worn apparatus, comprising:
 an elongated planar body formed of pliable material;   said body having a first side surface opposite a second side surface;   said body having a length running between a proximal edge opposite a distal edge adapted for circumferential engagement around an arm of a user to a mounted position;   a pocket positioned in a pocket portion of said body between said first side and said second side of said body in a position adjacent said distal edge;   first cooperative fasteners positioned on said first side surface adjacent a first edge of said pocket closest to said proximal end;   mating fasteners to said first cooperative fasteners, said mating fasteners positioned on said second side surface;   engagement of said first cooperative fasteners to said mating fasteners forming a first engagement holding said pocket portion and said pocket adjacent to and overlapping said second surface adjacent said proximal end of said body;   a tactile communication section formed in said body in-between said pocket portion and said proximal end;   a plurality of passages communicating through said body within said tactile communication section; and   said passages defining areas for fingertip communication through the body of the wrist-worn apparatus for a partner dancer to directly touch the arm of a wearer thereof.
