Abstract
A universal, wrap-around garment bag including a zippered storage compartment for storing garments therein, a plurality of adjustable straps including quick release fasteners for attaching the wrap-around garment bag to the outer surface of any suitcase, and openings provided at opposite ends of the garment bag for receiving hooks of garment hangers employed at opposite ends of the garment bag to maximize the ability to store more clothes in the storage compartment.
