Abstract
A fashion system including a shaped garment comprising a base material and a removable drape is provided herein. The removable drape may be attached to the base material such that corresponding shapes of the base material and the removable drape cooperate to hold the removable drape in place. The base material may be formed using a geometric cutting technique and the removable drape may be formed using a thermoforming technique to create a complementary drape system.
Claims20
A method of forming a wearable fashion system, comprising:
- folding a portion of a first garment into a plurality of folds, the first garment comprising a fabric material;
- attaching, with at least one fastener, the plurality of folds together to form a three-dimensional folded shape;
- thermoforming a second garment into a three-dimensional molded shape that is complementary to the three-dimensional folded shape,
- wherein the second garment comprises:
- a first layer having a first material, and
- a second layer comprising a second material, the second layer laid over the first layer such that the second layer is viewable from an exterior of the wearable fashion system;
- and
- coupling, without fasteners, the second garment to the first garment by positioning the three-dimensional molded shape on the three-dimensional folded shape such that the second garment is removably held in place on the first garment.

A method of forming a wearable garment, comprising:
- folding a portion of a first garment into a plurality of folds, the first garment comprising a fabric material;
- attaching, with at least one fastener, the plurality of folds together to obtain a three-dimensional folded shape in the first garment;
- thermoforming at least one of an inner layer or an outer layer of a second garment into a three-dimensional thermoformed shape;
- and
- coupling, without fasteners, the second garment to the first garment by overlaying the three-dimensional thermoformed shape on the three-dimensional folded shape such that the three-dimensional thermoformed shape is at least partially received within the three-dimensional folded shape.

A wearable fashion system, comprising:
- a first garment comprising a fabric material and having a plurality of folded portions coupled together by at least one fastener to form a three-dimensional folded shape in a portion of the first garment;
- and
- a second garment comprising:
- an inner layer comprising a first material;
- an outer layer comprising a second material;
- and
- a three-dimensional molded shape that is overlaid the three-dimensional folded shape and is complementary to the three-dimensional folded shape such that the first garment is coupled to the second garment when the three-dimensional molded shape is overlaid the three-dimensional molded shape, and
- wherein at least one of the inner layer or the outer layer are thermoformed into the three-dimensional molded shape.
