A fastening closure arrangement is provided for securing loose ends of the elements forming a tattoo-like fashion accessory formed of plastic monofilament line. The accessory article is formed in an artistic pattern of interconnected loops, with a closed loop at one end and two or more ends of the monofilament line at the other end. The ends of the monofilament lines are brought together in side-by-side relation and a locking collar is applied over the loose ends. End extremities of the monofilament elements, projecting beyond the collar, are fused and pressed, preferably with heat, to form a flange, which secures the collar against removal. To particular advantage, a pair of monofilament ends are arranged in straddling relation to a closed loop at the opposite end of the fashion accessory article such that, when the locking collar is applied and secured, the accessory article is secured in a closed ring, suitable for an armband, wristband, necklace or the like. The arrangement provides an inexpensive, highly effective and unobtrusive way to secure the monofilament ends of the fashion accessory article and, also to secure the article in the configuration of a closed ring.
