Abstract
A configured shirt-shaper article is used for the convenient folding and storing of a shirt in a substantially wrinkle-free state. The article is substantially flat and configured to have a generally rectangular-shaped main member with arm members extending from each upper corner area of the main member. A first fold line and a second fold line each extend longitudinally along one side and the other side respectively of the main member to divide the main member into two substantially equal side sections and a mid-section. The article is initially positioned inside the shirt. Next, the side sections with overlying shirt are folded to lie adjacent the back of the shirt. Finally, the bottom portion of the shirt is folded preferably backwardly to form a precisely and neatly folded shirt.
