Abstract
Interchangeable component(s) can be paired with an existing garment to create the illusion of multiple fashion ensembles without bearing the prohibitive cost or discomfort of such clothing to the user. The interchangeable components can be lengths of garment coverings, collars, cuffs, or any combination thereof. These interchangeable components can be removably affixed to a garment via any number and type of fastening mechanisms. This enables a wearer to create many different styles of patterns and colors without the purchase of a completely new garment. Additionally, an illusion of a wearer wearing certain styles of clothing can be achieved while removing uncomfortable fabrics and items often necessitated by such styles.
