Apparatus for magnetically holding a shirt collar in a position and orientation on a shirt front, includes a collar stay attachable to a collar via adhesive or the like, or receivable in a pocket of the collar. The collar stay includes a material attractable by a magnet and can include at least a peripheral edge portion of a polymer material to protect adjacent shirt fabric. A magnet is positionable against an inside surface of the shirt front opposite the collar and is magnetically attachable to the collar stay through the shirt front, for holding the collar in a desired position and orientation. Suitable polymers include plastics and rubbery materials, and can be elastic so as to be stretchable over the stay. The stay can also be a laminate or composite of the material attractable by the magnet and the polymer, and can be bendable or foldable into a desired shape. |

A method and apparatus for holding a shirt collar in a desired position and orientation, magnetically, against a shirt front. The apparatus includes a collar stay insertable into a conventional collar stay pocket or attachable to an inside surface of a collar, and a magnet magnetically attachable or couplable to the collar stay through the shirt front, and the pocket, if applicable, for holding the shirt collar in the selected position and orientation. The collar stay and the magnet can be optionally interlockable and/or include detents for preventing undesired relative movements thereof, which can include particularly, relative longitudinal movements, but which can also include twisting and sideward movements. For collars which do not include any collar stay pocket, or where a collar stay pocket is not desired to be used, the collar stay can include an adhesive on an outer surface thereof adapted for adhesive attachment to the inside surface of a collar. |

A lapel stiffener includes a stiffener strip and a peel-off label. A pressure sensitive adhesive is applied to one side of the stiffener strip. The peel-off label is applied over the pressure sensitive adhesive. The peel-off label is removed and the pressure sensitive adhesive is pressed on to an inside surface of a lapel. A second embodiment of the lapel stiffener includes the stiffener strip, a strip retainer pocket and a strip storage pocket. The strip retainer pocket is formed by securing a strip of material behind a lapel to receive the stiffener strip. The strip storage pocket is formed on a bottom of the lapel. A third embodiment of the lapel stiffener preferably includes the stiffener strip and a strip retainer cavity. The strip retainer cavity is formed by securing a strip of material behind a lapel. The strip retainer cavity surrounds the stiffener strip. |

An improved collar mechanism and method of use for the securing of reusable gowns typically used in health care settings around the neck of a user without the need to secure with ties, tabs, snaps or other securing devices. The collar mechanism is made of a stiff material that is pliable enough to move without fracture when force is applied but with a sufficient memory that allows the collar to return to its original position once the force is removed or when modeled as such. |

The collar includes a knitted collar body having a sewing edge adapted to be attached to the shirt, a finished edge and two selvedges. The body has a pocket at each of the two selvedges. The pocket has first and second ends extending approximately from the finished edge to the sewing edge. The pocket is closed at the first end by the finished edge. A stay is disposed in the pocket of each of the two selvedges. The stay has a first end facing the first end of the pocket and a second end facing the second end of the pocket.
