A container has a base and walls connected to the base to define an interior space. The walls have upper edges that terminate in a plane and define an opening for access to the interior space. Wetted donnable articles are stacked within the container, each article in a flat configuration at least partially perpendicular to the opening permitting withdrawal of any one of the donnable articles through the opening in a flat configuration. Walls on opposing sides of the base of the container diverge from each other with increasing distance from the base, such that the interior space widens gradually toward the opening. Walls on other opposing sides of the base have lower portions connected to the base and upper portions connected to the lower portions by steps that lengthen the interior space abruptly.

An assembly according to claim 2, wherein the at least one donnable article comprises: two planar panels joined together along a peripheral edge forming a partial enclosure open along a terminal wrist band;a palm area connected to the wrist band for receiving a palm of a hand of a user;a thumb area extending from the palm area; anda finger area extending from the palm area. 6. An assembly according to claim 5, wherein the at least one donnable article comprises at least one separable tab breakably attached to the wrist band and connected to the container. 7. An assembly according to claim 5, wherein the partial enclosure defined by the two planar panels opens through the terminal wrist band and toward the opening of the container. 8. An assembly according to claim 1, wherein each tab has a mounting hole by which the tab is connected to the container. 9. An assembly according to claim 1, wherein walls on opposing sides of the base diverge from each other with increasing distance from the base, such that the interior space widens gradually toward the opening. 10. An assembly according to claim 1, wherein walls on opposing sides of the base have lower portions connected to the base and upper portions connected to the lower portions by steps that lengthen the interior space abruptly. 11. An assembly comprising: a container having a horizontal base and at least partially vertical walls connected to the base to define an interior space, the walls having upper edges that terminate at an opening for access to the interior space;wetted articles within the container, each article hanging in a respective vertical plane and individually accessible through the opening permitting withdrawal of any one of the articles through the opening in a flat configuration;panels extending across between and supported by the upper edges of two opposing walls of the container, each panel receiving and supporting one of the wetted articles;two separable tabs respectively formed at upper outer corners of each panel, each tab breakably attached to a respective lateral side of the panel by a respective perforated tearable line, the respective perforated tearable lines being horizontally spaced-apart by a remaining portion of the panel such that the two separable tabs remain disposed on opposing sides of the container after the wetted article is removed from the container while the remaining portion of the panel is removed along with the donnable article, the remaining portion of the panel providing a surface for being grabbed by a user. 12. An assembly according to claim 11, wherein walls on opposing sides of the base are inclined away from each other with increasing distance from the base, such that the interior space widens gradually toward the opening. 13.
