Abstract

An apparel comprises a body portion and a pair of arm portions, where an underarm region is located between said body portion and each said arm portions. The body portion further comprises (a) a torso portion, (b) a skirt portion, (c) a band portion located between the torso and skirt portion and (d) at least one elastic element located between the band portion and underarm region. Alternatively, (d) the at least one elastic element may extend from the skirt portion to the underarm region. The band portion may be located in the interior space of the apparel.

1 . An apparel comprising:
 a body portion comprising a fabric, an interior area and an interior surface located in the interior area;   a pair of arm portions;   an underarm region located between said body portion and each of said arm portions;   least one elastic element extending from the body portion to the underarm region of each of said arm portions; and   a band portion disposed on and attached to the interior surface of the body portion, wherein the band portion is a separate piece from the body portion fabric.   
     
     
         2 . The apparel of  claim 1 , wherein stretching an arm portion to a straight vertical position, along the length of said apparel, results in extension of the elastic element. 
     
     
         3 . The apparel of  claim 2 , wherein extension of the elastic element does not cause vertical movement of the band portion along the length of the apparel. 
     
     
         4 . The apparel of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one elastic elements extends from the band portion to the underarm region. 
     
     
         5 . The apparel of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one elastic element does not extend to the band portion. 
     
     
         6 . The apparel of  claim 1 , comprising a plurality of linearly connected elastic elements. 
     
     
         7 . The apparel of  claim 6 , wherein said plurality of linearly connected elastic elements extend from the band portion to the underarm region. 
     
     
         8 . The apparel of  claim 6 , wherein the plurality of linearly connected elastic elements can, in the aggregate, elongate by at least about four inches. 
     
     
         9 . The Apparel of  claim 1 , wherein the band portion is not directly connected to said at least one elastic element. 
     
     
         10 . An apparel comprising:
 a body portion comprising a fabric, an interior area and an interior surface located in the interior area;   at least one underarm region located on said body portion; and   least one elastic element extending to said at least one underarm region;   a band portion disposed on and attached to the interior surface of the body portion,   wherein the band portion is a separate piece from the body portion fabric and,   wherein the band portion is not directly connected to said at least one elastic element.   
     
     
         11 . The apparel of  claim 10 , wherein the band portion is attached to opposing sides of the interior surface of the body portion. 
     
     
         12 . The apparel of  claim 10 , wherein the band portion is connected to only two sides of the body portion. 
     
     
         13 . The apparel of  claim 10 , wherein the band portion is connected to only the front and rear of the apparel. 
     
     
         14 . A method of constructing an apparel comprising the steps of:
 combining a first fabric piece with at least one elastic element to, to form a body portion, wherein said first fabric piece has different elasticity from said at least one elastic element, whereby the apparel comprises:
 a body portion comprising a torso portion and a skirt portion; and 
 a pair of arm portions-such that an underarm region is located between said body portion and each said arm portions; and 
   attaching to the interior space of the apparel, between the skirt portion and the torso portion, a band portion,   wherein the band portion is located under said at least one elastic element, and   wherein said at least one elastic element extends from the torso portion to the skirt portion.   
     
     
         15 . The method of  claim 14 , wherein the band portion is disposed on and attached to the interior surface of the body portion. 
     
     
         16 . The method of  claim 14 , wherein the band portion is a separate piece from the body portion fabric. 
     
     
         17 . The method of  claim 14 , wherein the band portion is not directly connected to said at least one elastic element.
