Abstract
A second buttonhole 6 is provided on a front cloth 3a of an inner fold of a neckband 3 of a dress shirt 1. A left end of a rubber tape 8 is stitched on a rear cloth 3b. A left end of a padding 7a is stitched on a right end thereof. A lining cloth 7b is stitched on a right end of the padding 7a. A right end of the lining cloth 7b is stitched inside the rear cloth 3b of the neckband 3. A vertical tape 9 has an upper end and a lower end stitched on the rear cloth 3b under the padding 7a. A horizontal tape 10 is passed therebetween and has its opposite ends stitched on rear sides of the padding 7a and the lining cloth 7b, respectively. Thus, there is provided a structure that a vertical tape 9 is held between a moving cloth, which is made of the padding 7a and the lining cloth 7b, and the horizontal tape 10. When an uppermost button 4 is hooked on the second buttonhole 6 of the front cloth 3a and moved rightward against a tensile force of the rubber tape 8, it can move smoothly. Moreover, a neckline can be adjusted to a desired length without a conspicuous action.
