Garment Support Apparatus

A garment support apparatus for use with a garment having a waist band that has an interior side and exterior side, the garment support apparatus comprising:

• a partially closed end;
• first and second extending sections attached to said partially closed end and being spaced apart, said first and second extending sections extending to distal ends that are spaced apart from each other so as to create an open end of the garment support apparatus, said space between said first and second extending sections being sized to receive a portion of a garment waist band;
• said first extending section having a first end adjacent to said partially closed end and a cut-out formed in said first end, said first extending section having an opposite second end adjacent to said open end and a cut-out in said second end, wherein each cut-out is sized to a receive a portion of a garment belt-loop;
• said second extending section having a first side for contacting an interior side of a garment waist band and an opposite second side for facing a wearer's torso;
• and
• friction material on said first and second sides of said second extending section.

A garment support apparatus for use with a garment having a waist band that has an interior side and exterior side, the garment support apparatus comprising:

• a partially closed end;
• a generally planar section attached to and extending from said partially closed end, said generally planar extending section extending to a distal end;
• a pair of belt-receiving sections that are attached to and extend from said partially closed end and spaced apart from said generally planar section, wherein said space between each belt-receiving section and said generally planar section being sized to receive a portion of a garment waist band, each belt-receiving section having an opening therethrough for allowing a belt to pass therethrough, said belt-receiving sections being spaced apart by a space that is sized to receive a garment belt-loop;
• said generally planar section having a first side for contacting an interior side of a garment waist band and an opposite second side that faces a wearer's torso when the garment support apparatus is in use;
• and
• friction material on said first and second sides of said generally planar section.

A garment support apparatus for use with a garment having a waist band that has an interior side, exterior side and at least one belt-loop, the garment support apparatus comprising:

• a closed end;
• first and second extending sections attached to said closed end and spaced apart from one another, said first and second extending sections extending to distal ends that are spaced apart from each other so as to create an open end of said garment support apparatus, said space between said first and second extending sections being sized to receive a portion of a garment waist band, said second extending section having a first side for contacting an interior side of a garment waist band and an opposite second side that faces a wearer's torso when the garment supporting apparatus is in use;
• and
• friction material on said first and second sides of said second extending section.

A garment support apparatus for use with a garment that has an interior side and exterior side, the garment support apparatus comprising:

• a loop section having a first end, an opposite second end, a first section attached to the first and second ends, and a second section attached to the first and second ends and located across from the first section, the loop section defining an opening therethrough that is sized for receiving a belt;
• a support member comprising a first end that is movably attached to the first end of the loop section, the support member further comprising an opposite, second distal end, wherein the support the support member is spaced apart from the second section of the loop section, the support member having an interior side that faces the second section of the loop section and an exterior side that faces a wearer's torso when the garment support apparatus is in use;
• and
• a garment contact member attached to the opposite, second distal end of the support member, the garment contact member comprising a first side for contacting an interior side of a garment at or in proximity to the waist of the garment and an opposite second side that faces a wearer's torso when the garment support apparatus is in use, the garment contact member further comprising friction material on the first and second sides of the garment contact member.
