Abstract
A clothing article in the form of a T-shirt, sweat shirt, or the like allows a hologram sheet design to be displayed through the window of a flexible frame member. The hologram sheet is in the form of a flat layer having an inner surface that faces the clothing article and a hologram three dimensional artistic surface facing away from the clothing article, the hologram surface displaying the three dimensional holographic art image outwardly to viewers. The flexible frame member is layered on top of the hologram layer, providing a peripheral welt that can be used to stitch the combination of the hologram sheet layer and flexible frame member to the clothing article. The flexible frame member is preferably of a polymeric material such as PVC providing a base layer having a window opening in its center for displaying the holographic art image therethrough. The outer surface of the base layer of the frame member includes a plurality of spaced apart raised three dimensional portions that define separate elements of an overall artistic visual design.
