Resilient Support

Added support piece to hold a second array of closing hooks.Sewing support fixed in between fabric and lining.

Sewing in a strap of stretch fabric as an underlying layer for the Rider Vest to hold a second set of closure hooks, to be placed in between the, with the fold-lines conjoining, primary set of hooks, thus contra-pulling during movement, flexibly containing the gaps, making sure the vest stays leveled all throughout the night.

Spare Ties

Prefab Bow-ties
Utilizing familiar techniquesfor fabricating a set of additional bows, this time with elastic lint embedded within the ribbon portion, allowing them to be easily mounted on the lower legs to finish off a pair knee-highs, thus extending the presence and continuing the characteristics of the Green shirt onto the whole of the outfit.

Sew-on Bow Ties

Sewn-on Bow Ties
Revealing a little secret in fastening the Green Shirt cuffs and collar, by skipping the need for having someone present to tie loose ribbons into bows on every wear, as ready-made ones have already been sewn onto worked-in strips, neatly keeping the cuff folds in place while augmented with a regular button closure to sustain the wrist enabling easy dressing and undressing, a concept that is in the same manner repeated by using a hidden press-button on the neck closure.
