Abstract

Fashion accessory holding device having a vertically extending base and a support system for the accessory in the form of removable loops so as to display the accessory along the base in a vertical orientation.

Claims

1. A fashion accessory holding device comprising:

a) a vertically extending base having two sides;

b) a first securing means attached to both sides of said base; and

c) at least one strip of a second securing means adapted to be removably engaged to said first securing means along the longitudinal axis of the vertically extending base in the form of a loop.

2. The accessory holding device as defined in claim 1 wherein the first securing means comprises a material having a multitude of loops or hooks projecting from said material and said second securing means comprises a material having the other of said loops and hooks projecting from said material wherein the loops and hooks are adapted to removably engage each other.

3. The accessory holding device as defined in claim 1 further comprising means attached to one end of the base for suspending the device in a vertical orientation.

4. The accessory holding device as defined in claim 1 comprising at least two rows of second securing means attached to said first securing means.

5. The accessory holding device as defined in claim 1 comprising at least two parallel rows of said first securing means attached to one side of said base.

6. The accessory holding device as defined in claim 1 wherein said second securing means comprises a plurality of separate strips of varying lengths covering at least a substantial length of the first securing means.

7. The accessory holding device as defined in claim 1 wherein the second securing means has opposed ends, one of said ends being permanently attached to the first securing means.

8. The accessory holding device as defined in claim 1 wherein said second securing means is in the form of a plurality of separate loops along the first securing means.

9. The accessory holding device as defined in claim 1 wherein said second securing means is adapted to be secured to the first securing means along the entire length of the first securing means and to be released in part from the first securing means to form said loop.

10. The accessory holding device as defined in claim 7 wherein the strips of the second securing means are attached to the first securing means over its entire length and wherein at least some of the strips of said second securing means overlap each other.

11. A fashion accessory holding device comprising:

a) a vertically extending base;

b) a first securing means attached to at least one side of said base; and

c) at least two rows of at least one strip of a second securing means adapted to be removably engaged to said first securing means along the longitudinal axis of the vertically extending base in the form of a loop.

12. The accessory holding device as defined in claim 11 wherein the first securing means comprises a material having a multitude of loops or hooks projecting from said material and said second securing means comprises a material having the other of said loops and hooks projecting from said material wherein the loops and hooks are adapted to removably engage each other.

13. The accessory holding device as defined in claim 11 comprising at least two rows of said second securing means attached to said first securing means.

14. A fashion accessory holding device comprising:

a) a vertically extending base;

b) at least two parallel rows of a first securing means attached to at least one side of said base; and

c) at least one strip of a second securing means adapted to be removably engaged to said first securing means along the longitudinal axis of the vertically extending base in the form of a loop.

15. The accessory holding device as defined in claim 14 wherein the first securing means comprises a material having a multitude of loops or hooks projecting from said material and said second securing means comprises a material having the other of said loops and hooks projecting from said material wherein the loops and hooks are adapted to removably engage each other.

16. A fashion accessory holding device comprising:

a) a vertically extending base;

b) a first securing means attached to at least one side of said base; and

c) at least one strip of a second securing means having opposed ends, one of said ends being permanently attached to the first securing means, said second securing means adapted to be removably engaged to said first securing means along the longitudinal axis of the vertically extending base in the form of a loop.

17. The accessory holding device as defined in claim 16 wherein the first securing means comprises a material having a multitude of loops or hooks projecting from said material and said second securing means comprises a material having the other of said loops and hooks projecting from said material wherein the loops and hooks are adapted to removably engage each other.

18. The accessory holding device as defined in claim 16 wherein the strips of the second securing means are attached to the first securing means over its entire length and wherein at least some of the strips of said second securing means overlap each other.

19. A fashion accessory holding device comprising:

a) a vertically extending base;

b) a first securing means attached to at least one side of said base; and

c) at least one strip of a second securing means adapted to be removably engaged to said first securing means along the entire length of the longitudinal axis of the vertically extending base and to be released in part from the first securing means to form a loop.
