The novel convertible wearing accessory which is fabricated of chiffon, or other silk, rayon or cotton fabric of soft texture, is shown when fully stretched out, in Fig. 1. As there shown, the novel accessory is of square outline, although it may have any other rectangular or substantially rectangular formation. As a matter of fact, the novel accessory need not be quadrilateral; a modification is shown in Fig. 7 which is formed from a blank of nonquadrilateral or irregular outline. But for facility in illustration the novel accessory is shown in Fig. 1 (and Fig. 2) as formed from a square blank.
Irrespective of the shape of the blank from which it is formed, the novel wearing accessory of this invention has a center portion III of major area and four corners, more accurately, corner enlargements, II, I2, I3 and I4, of minor area. The enlargements result from large cut-outs, I5, I6, I1 and I8, one at each of the four sides of the blank.

The other corner enlargement I4 would be held in her right hand R. The two ends I2, I4 are then encircled around the neck so that the corner enlargement I4 is now held in her left hand (L) and the corner enlargement I2 in her right hand (R), as is shown in Fig. 3.
The two ends I2, I4 are then formed into an over-hand or Ascot tie, designated 20 in Fig. 4.
The conversion of the novel accessory (unfolded, Fig. i) into a halter or sleeveless blouse is shown in Figs. 5-6. The unfolded accessory, Fig. 1, is held by the wearer in front of her with the two upper corner'enlargements II, I2, Fig. 1, in the region of the neck and with the two lower corner enlargements I3, I4, Fig. 1, in'the region of the waist.
