Abstract:
1. A garment bag for a collared shirt, the bag comprising a receptacle for receiving a first portion of the shirt including the collar, and a cover in the form of a sleeve with opposed front and rear faces for receiving a remainder of the shirt, the front and rear faces being adjoined to each other at longitudinal sides, wherein, when the cover of the garment bag is in position for receiving the shirt, the front face lies flat on the rear face and is able to be opened to reveal the rear face, the front and rear faces of the cover contacting the remainder of the shirt when the garment bag is in an unrolled position with the shirt inserted therein and the cover closed, and wherein, when the cover is rolled up around the receptacle, the receptacle is disposed within the rolled up cover and the front and rear faces of the cover maintain contact with the remainder of the shirt, the receptacle being of greater rigidity than the cover to provide a crush-resistant region for protecting the collar of the shirt.
