Abstract
A brassiere shoulder strap has a layer of strap material having an inner surface with an inner surface area shape and an outer non-slip surface, and a support fabric having an inner surface and overlying the inner surface of the layer of strap material. The inner surface of the support fabric corresponding to the inner surface area shape of the layer of strap material. Folded free side edges of the layer of strap material and the support fabric are all stitched together to interconnect the layer of strap material to the support fabric.

A shoulder strap for a brassiere having a pair of breast receiving cups, a torso-encircling band, and a shoulder strap extending between each breast receiving cup and the torso-encircling band, each shoulder strap comprising:
- a layer of strap material having an inner surface with an inner surface area shape, opposed free side edges, and an outer non-slip foam surface for wear against the skin of a wearer;
- a support fabric having an inner surface and overlying said inner surface of the layer of strap material, the inner surface of the support fabric corresponding to the inner surface area shape of the layer of strap material, and having opposed free side edges;
- the opposed free side edges of the layer of strap material folded upwardly and inwardly adjacent the inner surface of the layer of strap material, and the opposed free side edges of the support fabric folded downwardly and inwardly adjacent the inner surface of the support fabric;
- and
- the folded free side edges of the layer of strap material and the support fabric all being stitched together to interconnect the layer of strap material to the support fabric to thereby form the brassiere shoulder strap.
