Body-enhancing garment and garment construction
Systems or methods for anatomy warping a garment are provided. Anatomy warping is any deliberate manipulation of a garment's seams, pockets, and/or other construction lines and/or details in order to change the perceived shape of a wearer of the garment toward a desired appearance. Additionally, the garments that result from use of these systems and methods for anatomy warping are also provided.

a first pocket on the rear side and positioned at least partially over a first cheek of a buttocks of a wearer of the garment when worn, the first pocket configured to change the perception of a buttocks of a wearer such that the buttocks of the wearer appears rounder, the yoke being positioned between a waistline of the garment and the first pocket; the first pocket comprising:
a curved top edge that arches away from a center of the first pocket when the first pocket is flat;

a first pocket on the rear side and positioned at least partially over a first cheek of a buttocks of a wearer of the garment when worn, the yoke being positioned between a waistline and the first pocket; the first pocket comprising:
a curved top edge that arches away from a center of the first pocket when the first pocket is flat, the curved top edge configured to change the perception of a buttocks of a wearer such that the buttocks appears rounder when worn;
an interior edge; and
an exterior edge meeting the interior edge at a bottom of the pocket opposite the top edge, the first pocket being asymmetrical about a vertical line passing through the intersection of the interior edge and the exterior edge.
11. The garment of claim 10 , further comprising a second pocket on the rear side and positioned at least partially over a second cheek of the buttocks of the wearer of the garment when worn, the second pocket being a mirror of the first pocket about a centerline of the garment.
12. The garment of claim 10 , wherein the interior edge of the pocket includes a first curve above a second curve, wherein the first curve arches toward a center of the pocket and the second curve arches away from the center of the pocket.
13. The garment of claim 10 , wherein curved top edge of the first pocket has an interior end that is a first distance from the yoke and an exterior end that is a second distance from the yoke, the second distance being greater than the first distance.
14. The garment of claim 10 , wherein the exterior edge of the first pocket is longer than the interior edge of the first pocket.
15. A body-enhancing garment, the garment comprising:
a front side;
a first side seam;
a second side seam, the second side seam opposite the first side seam;
a rear side, the rear side opposite the front side;
a yoke on the rear side and having a right curve and a left curve, the right curve extending from the first side seam to a center of the rear side and arches toward a waistline of the garment, the left curve extending from the second side seam to the center of the rear side and arches toward the waistline of the garment, the right curve and the left curve connect at the center of the rear of the garment; and
a first pocket on the rear side and positioned at least partially over a first cheek of a buttocks of a wearer of the garment when worn, the yoke being positioned between a waistline and the first pocket; the first pocket comprising:
a curved top edge that arches away from a center of the first pocket when the pocket is flat;
an interior edge having a first length; and
an exterior edge having a second length greater than the first length, the interior edge and the exterior edge configured to change the perception of a buttocks of a wearer such that the buttocks appears rounder when worn.
