Abstract

An improved modification to a typical T-shirt, to convert it into a full headdress, by adding first and second strips of releasable, press-together bonding material, such as Velcro (trademark) in spaced-apart relation on one the shirt torso panels near the panel-sleeve seam, one set above the other, so that when the top of the shirt is folded downward, one-half the depth of the sleeves, to place the first strip on one side of the shirt and the second strip on the other side of the shirt, and the torso-covering panels draped over the wearer's head and down over the rear of the wearer's neck, the folded sleeves may be wrapped rearward about the head and brought into overlapping contact along the strips to form the headdress.
