Abstract
Abstract The dual purpose garment incorporating a visual safety display, enables the wearer to bring into use, areas of bright coloured luminous material, both at the wearers front and rear, so that the wearer can be easily seen, during periods of poor visibility. A flap 2 with a covered luminous material on its inner surface overlaps a second such panel on the garment. When a shoulder fastener 8 is released the flap can be passed to the weare'rs back from his front such that both panels are visible. <IMAGE>
