A wearing article comprising:

• a chassis comprising
• a longitudinal direction, a transverse direction and a waist surrounding direction;
• a body side surface and a garment side surface;
• a first waist region corresponding to one of front and rear waist regions and having a first waist hole defining edge, a second waist region corresponding to the other of said front and rear waist regions and having a second waist hole defining edge and a crotch region between said first and second waist regions;
• first and second waist hole elastic zones respectively extending along said first and second waist hole defining edges, with said first and second waist regions folded in two along an imaginary transverse center line of said crotch region so that said first and second waist regions are opposed to each other;
• a fastening system for connecting transversely opposite side edge portions of said first and second waist regions to each other;
• said first and second waist hole elastic zones respectively having a first edge adjacent to said first waist hole defining edge and a second edge opposite to said first edge;
• said fastening system comprising a first fastening component which elongates in said longitudinal direction and has a first end adjacent to said first waist hole defining edge and a second end adjacent to said crotch region, and a second fastening component which elongates in said longitudinal direction and has a first end adjacent to said second waist hole defining edge and a second end adjacent to said crotch region and is detachably engageable with said first fastening component;
• and
• said first end of said second fastening component being positioned longitudinally beyond said first end of said first fastening component and also positioned longitudinally outward beyond said first edge of said second waist hole elastic zone to a side of said second waist hole defining edge, with said transversely opposite side portions of said first and second waist regions respectively connected by said first and second fastening components being engaged with each other so that at least said first edges of said first and second waist hole elastic zones are aligned in a straight line in said waist surrounding direction.
