- Therefore, when the first fastener (121) is inserted into the second fastener (122) (or vice versa) and connected together, the elastic band wing (140) will not be folded back from the panties (110).
- Moreover, other fastening devices, such as buttons and button holes, female buttons and male buttons, or Velcro tape could be placed on the locations of first fastener (121) and second fastener (122).
- And one end of the wing fastening device (150) has several rows of eyes while the other end has several hooks to adjust the waist size and it is fastened by inserting one hook into one eye.
- As a way to fasten the panties (110) to the elastic band wing (140), other fastening device can be used in addition to the said fastening device (120). In other words, on either side of the first fastener (121) on the panties (110), one or more female buttons can be placed at an interval and on either side of the second fastener (120) on the elastic band wing (140), males buttons can be placed to fit into the female buttons.
- This is to prevent the elastic band wing (140) from getting folded back from the panties (110) by fastening the panties (110) to the elastic band wing (140) all the time using the first fastener (121) and the second fastener (122), or make the fastening of the panties (110) and the elastic band wing (140) more secure by fastening female buttons to the male buttons.
- For the fastening device, not only pairs of female and male buttons but also snaps, Velcro tape, or buttons and button holes could be used.
- The fastening device at the bottom (130) is made of elastic band with certain width so that the lower band wing part (142) of the elastic band wing (140) is fastened to the panties (110) securely.
- In the said underwear (100) of this invention structured as stated above, as shown in
FIGS. 2 and 3 , when a person puts on the panties (110), pulls both ends of upper band wing part (141) formed on the elastic band wing (140) to the arrow directions and fastens the wing fastening device (150) on the belly button area, the fat in the sides and abdomen is gathered and tightened and no more fat can enter, and at the same time the lower band wing part (142) formed on the elastic wing band (140) is pulled upward to the arrow direction and the drooping hip is pulled up and maintained. - At this time, the lower band wing part (142) is wide enough to wrap up the hip entirely and pull it upward.
- And the panties (110) can be worn over regular panties or worn as regular panties or a girdle.
- Elastic material is used for the panties (110) because if other parts of the panties (110) are not fit tightly when the hip is pulled up by the elastic band wing (140), the body shape might be corrected unevenly.
- In other words, only when the elastic band wing (140) pulls up the hip upwards while all the flesh inside the panties (110) is tightened up, the body shape is corrected effectively.
- Rubber band can be put inside the top circumference of the panties (110) so that the panties fit snugly around the wearer's waist.
- When the elastic band wing (140) at the back of the panties (110) is pulled up and pulls up the hip, if there is no fastening device at the top, the top part of the pulled up elastic band wing (140) will roll down, but as the wing fastening device (150) is located at both ends of the wing, and when it is fastened on the abdomen, i.e. near the belly button, the elastic band wing wraps up the hip and maintains the shape of pulled up hip.
- When the width of the wing part of elastic band wing (140) is wide enough to wrap up the sides and abdomen, the shape of hip is corrected and the shape of abdomen can be corrected as well by tightening the abdomen.
- And it is desirable for the wing fastening device (150) on both ends of the elastic band wing (140) to have the same form as the waist band and its two sides to be fastened by eyes and hooks, zipper, Velcro tape, or buttons.
- When hooks and eyes are used for the wing fastening device (150), use more than five rows to improve the fastening effect on the abdomen. And if more than 2 rows of hooks and eyes are provided, it becomes more effective since abdomen tightening strength can be controlled.
- If non or less elastic material is used for the entire or part of wing fastening device (150) of upper band wing part (141) or if part of it is reinforced from inside, the shape of abdomen can be corrected more effectively.
- In addition, if more than one stiffener is added vertically on the right and left of upper band wing part (141), it is possible to prevent it from getting folded horizontally or wrinkled.
- The fastening device at the bottom (130) is placed horizontally at the bottom of the back side right beneath the hip and fastens the lower end of lower band wing part (142) and supports the hip upward from bottom when the elastic band wing (140) is pulled upward to maximize the effect of elastic band wing (140).
- And for the fastening device at the bottom (130), more than two wide or narrow bands can be installed and when connecting the bottom part of lower band wing part (142) to the fastening device at the bottom (130), it is desirable to sew so that crotch part of the lower band wing (142) is connected.
- And for the elastic band wing (140), using elastic and breathable material will achieve partial diet effect by evaporating sweat quickly in addition to the hip up effect.
- The leg length of the panties (110) can vary as desired ranging from upper thigh to blow the knee and the torso length of the panties (110) can vary also ranging from belly button area to the chest area.
- And the width of upper band wing part (141) can vary according to the torso length of the panties (110).
- If the panties (110) are used as regular panties or a girdle, it is possible to make the elastic band wing (140) be in direct contact with the wearer's hip by cutting the back of the panties (110) and make the elastic band wing (14) cross the cut area.
- When acupressure bumps are placed on the inner side of elastic band wing (140), acupressure effect as well as hip up effect can be obtained.
- It is also possible to place the elastic band wing (140) on the inside of the panties (110) rather than the outside.
