Abstract
Description


FIG. 1 is a front isometric view of an embodiment of a posture enhancement strap showing my new design in a tightened configuration.



FIG. 2 is a rear elevation view thereof in an untightened configuration.



FIG. 3 is a front isometric view of an embodiment of the posture enhancement strap of FIGS. 1 and 2 as it may appear when worn.



FIG. 4 is a rear isometric view as worn thereof.



FIG. 5 is a front elevation view as worn thereof in an alternate position.



FIG. 6 is a rear elevation view as worn thereof; and,



FIG. 7 is an enlarged detail view of a portion of the undergarment strap taken from FIG. 1.


The broken lines shown as part of the strap adjusters to the posture enhancement strap do not form a part of the claimed design. The partial human figure shown in broken lines is environmental subject matter included to help illustrate how the design appears when worn and forms no part of the claimed design. The broken-line circles showing an enlarged detail (FIG. 7) and the portion of the article from which it was taken (FIG. 1), illustrate the boundaries of the detail view and form no part of the claimed design.


The present invention relates in general to an undergarment and, in particular, to an undergarment for enhancing posture.


Claims
  • The ornamental design for a posture enhancement strap.
