Abstract

Anti-Twisting Fashion Jewelry Bra Straps, available either as a pair of over-the-shoulder straps or as a single strap worn halter-style over the neck, substitute for conventional, undergarment quality bra straps. These high-end fashion jewelry bra straps provide support for women's breasts when hooked onto the loops of strapless bras worn with clothing that exposes women's shoulders, while adding a touch of elegance to the wearer's outfit. Anti-twisting feature ensures that these straps will lie flat against women's shoulders without twisting or sliding for greater freedom of movement while making sure the decorative side of the strap face outside. Three design components achieve this feature: anti-twisting bow-tie anchor pieces; flat metal ornament settings; fine metal loops [one at each end of the settings] that connect the settings and bow-ties. Flexible and elegant extender chains with lobster clasps at the end of the straps allow women to adjust strap length.
