Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1157624A1] A garment fastener, especially for brassieres, with a press-button action and configuration, utilizes a pair of circular members welded to the garment and through which the fabric can be visible and a circular member attached to the strap and forming a press connection with either of the two circular members attached to the fabric. The members can be part of a flexible fastener for the backstrap of lingerie or the like garments and especially swimsuits can have soft polyurethane carrier tapes which can be transparent or translucent and have eyelets or press buttons fitted into and ultrasonically welded in holes of the tape. The holes are surrounded by rings engaged by the flanges of the eyelets and press buttons to prevent slipping of the tape around the eyelets or press buttons. <IMAGE>
