Abstract

Garment, in particular shirt, blouse, smock and the like, which is worn in the trousers or in the skirt, and, in order to prevent the slipping out of trousers or skirt, is provided at its underedge with a hip-fitting piece of elastic material. Preferably, the hip-fitting piece is of circular-knitted tricot fabric, having at the underedge a fixed fastening. The connection between hip-fitting piece (9) and upper piece (8) has been made with the aid of a special stitch (10), such as a flatlock stitch, wherein possibly one or more elastomeric yarns (11) can be incorporated.

Description

ca2117261 ~094/0517l PCT/NL92/001~0 :~ , . . .

Garment and method for its manufacture ,:
The invention relates to a garment,: notably blouse, shirt, smock a~d the like, as is~ usually worn in th~
skirt or trousers at waist; level. During~daily movements it is found in practice that garme~ts, which are worn~;in the trousers or skirt no~mally~ cannot possibly;:remain fitting correc~ly. This is corrected many times a day by .
the relative wearer. This unappetizing presentati~n i5 ~.
often annoying, especially in the~servica sector, parti~
cularly when uniforms~or~sportswear are;concerned.
10 ~ :When the~ upper::clothing ~is-~being~:worn :;over the trousers or the skirt,:this~does not give~a~fine~si~lhou ette.
~ In~searching~a ~cer~aln~ solution ~seve~al firms make;
notably he::~blouses~ already~somewhat~ longer, but thereby 15~ often:~bumps~:and:~lumbs~ are:~visible :~through ~ the ~s~irt or ~trousers,~ particularly when bowing,:what is :not :a ~:ine With~the:~invention it ~is~ intended ~to~:provide~a~
garment which is~composed~ n~such ~a~:~way,~ that~the~sl.ip~
20::~ ping~:out~ of~:the~skirt~or~ trousers~during~the~::dail~y~:move~
ments~is counteracted::and which~at the same time:does not : : show~a~y ~silhouetting under:~the~:~skirt~or~the:trousers.:
In accordance~with~the~inventlon this is~:~achieved in~
that~:a:ga~ment:of -the~kind~s~described:in`~he ~preamble : :
.~ 25 :i characteri~zed:~by~an overwidth~beyond the waist,~under whi~ch:a;~hip-fitting piece~of ~lastic~materia~l, preferably ~o~circular~::knitted;~tricot fabric is~connected~ by:m~ans - :of~a: connecti~n of overwidth ~and hip-fitting piece with : ~::: ~ the aid of~a speciaI stitch such as flatlock stitch, W094/05171 PCT~ W2/OOJ' overlock stitch, overcover stitch and other twin stitchings, whereas the lower edge of the hip-fitting piece is providPd with a f ixed f astening .
The overwidth is required to ensure that the hip-fitting piece does not show visibly above the trousers orskirt during the daily movements.
In conformity with the size of the garment, the tricot hip-fitting piece is knitted in a hip-fit~ing and sufficiently elastic manner.
~0 This gives the garments a feeling of pleasantness and comfort, which with the indicated stitches provide~ a flexible connection between the upper part and the hip-- fitting piece.
The hip-fitting piece can be circular-knitted with an e~ual diameter, but in another embodiment be designed as a strip showing certain bulging, wherein the differen-ce in girth between waiste and hip averages 30 cm. Thi~
is especially meant for the ]Ladies'~sizes.
A hip-fitting :piece can also be cut, so that seams 20 are created~wherein the ~ashion aspect may play a part. ~:
To maintain the shape of the hip-fitting ~piece, preferably one or more elastic yarns;~are;incorporated in ~ the lower edge of the hip-fltting piece. For children and : gentlemen these then provide a good modelling of~the ~:
: 25 yarment~ During the; accomplishment of the hip-fitting piece this:finishing can be knitted in unvisibly,~without : :giving an annoying thickening. ~Preferably, the elastic:
yarn consists of elastomeric material or: at lea:st con~
; tains same.
For the hip-fitting piece a choice can be made from various~textile materials, such as :cotton, woolj ~ilk, synthetlc yarns as viscose and/or mixtures thereo~.
: For influenciny the outer appearance :of the hip-fittinq piece use can be made of various yarn thicknes-ses, stitch sizes, whereas further various types of knlttings can be applied, such as l:l ribs, 2:2 ribs, ~Jacquard pa~terns and the like~
The invention al50 relates to a method for the ::

.

C~ 2 1 11 7:~61 '~094/05171 PCT/NL92/00150 manufacture of a garment, composed of an upper part, which in according with the invention is provided with a certain overwidth, to the lower edge of which an elastic hip-fitting piece is connected.
In accordance with a further development of this method one or more elastic parting threads can be knitted in during the manufa ture of the hip-fitting piece.
In order to obtain a.perfect cut with the method for the manufacture of a garment in accordance with the invention an elastromeric thread can be in~ert~d in connecting the upper part to the hip-fitting piece under the flatlock stitch~ :
Alternatively with a method in accordance with the invention for the manufacture of a garment consisting of an upper part which is provided with a certain overwidth, to the lower edge of which an elastic hip-fitting piece is connected~ the hip fitting piece may be manufac~ured-with or without seams and stitchings, depending on the siæes and the fashion influenc:es of ~he garment.
The invention may be applied to ladies', men's, ;~ gentlemen's and children's ~clothing, and further to workclothe~, sportswear, uniforms, leisure clothing and the like.
~ ~ In the following the invention will be illustrated with reference t~ the accompanying drawings. ~ :
Figures 1 and 2 show circular-knitted hip-fitting pleces with equal diameter, and circular-kni:tted hlp-fi:tting pieces with variable diameter~respectively.
~ Figure 3 shows~ hlp-fitting pieces of differen~
lengths.
; F ~ure 4 shows the~diffe~ence in dimension between the :lower edge of the upper garment and the circular~
knitted hip-fitting pieces~to be connected thereto.
Figure 5 shows the incorporation of an elastomerlc thread under a:flatlock stikch which forms the connection b tween:~o~erwidth and~hip-fitting piece.
Figure 6: shows that the upper part has sufficient overwidth to ensure that the tricot does not show visibly C~9~ 6 1 PCT/NL92/00~

above the trousers or the skirt.
Figure 7 shows a blouse with a hip-fit~ing piece, connected thereunder whereas Figure 8 shows the same blouse, whereby the hip-fitting piece is now covered entirely by the trousers.
The hip-fitting pieces can be fabricated in various ways, they may be circular-knitted with equal diameter, as Figure 1 shows, or be circular-knitted with variable diameter as shown in Figure 2. The difference in girth between waist and hip av~rages 30 cm.
Although this is not shown, the hip-fitting pieces may alternatively be cut, 50 that seams ar~ created, wherein the fashion aspect may play a part.
As the Figures 1 and 2 show, the circular-knitted :
hip-fitting piecess (1), (2~, (3) respectively, may be knitted with parting threads (4), (5) respectively the-rein, so that the hip-fitting pieces may be separated and have obtained a fixed fastening. ~.
In order to maintain the shape of the hip-fitting piecess, pre~erably an elastomeric yarn is incorporated in their lower edges. During the accomplishment of the hip-fitting pieces this finishing incorporation can be knitted in unvisibly, without giving an annoying thicke-ning.
The length of the hip-fitting pieces tl, ~, 3) can be variable, as Figure 3 shows with a shirt (6), and yet be sufficiently long to prevent them from producing a disturbing image of "sit" through the skirt or trousers.
The length is preferably at least 18 cm.
In Figure 4 the difference in width between the lower--edge of the skirt ~(6) and the tubular hip-fitting piece (l) is visible, whereby the line (7) indicates the upper edge of the trousers or skirt.
The hip fitting pieces may vary in weight by using Yarious textile materials, such as cotton, wool, silk, synthetic yarns as viscose and/or mixtures.
The outer appearance of the hip-fitting pieces may turn out differently, by applying various yarn thickenes-: : , CA21 1 7`261 -V094/05171 PCT/N~92/00150 ses, stitch sizes, and further by applying various knit-tings, such as l:l ribs, 2:2 ribs, Jacquard patterns and the like.
To obtain a perfect cut, it is necessary to incorpo-rate an elastomeric thread (ll) in the connection of an . upper part (~) to the hip-fitting piece (9), preferably under the flatlock s-titch (l0), as is visible in Figure 5.
Figure 6 shows a shirt (12) with cylindrical hip-fitting piece (13) of circular knitted tricot fabric provided thereunder. It is clearly vi~ible that the upper part, viz. the shirt ~12), has sufficient overwidth, ~o that care is taken that the tric~t of the hip-fit~ing piece ~13) does not show (visibly) above the trousers or skirt (line 14).
On comparing Figures 7 and 8 it appears that the hip-fitting piece (20~ tightly fits the hips and the hip-fitting piece can easily be worn under the trousers (21) of skirt. The application of the measure in accordance with the invention results in that flaps hanging loose and lumps being visible through skîrt or trousers are things of the past for good. Moreover, the upper garment provided with a tricot hip-fitting piece gives a feeling of pleasantness to the wearer.
The garment cannot hang loosely because:of the ap-plication of an elastomeric ~hread in the applied connec-r tion, preferably`the flatlo~k stitch, as Figure 5 shows.
: Another advantage of the application of the inventi-: on is that hanging loosely at the l~wer edge of the hip-fitting piece is prevented by applyin~ here elastomeric yarns~ is can be done either during the manufacture of - the hip-fitting piece or afterwards. :~
Another advantage of the appllcation of the inventi-on is the fashion aspect, the garment is trend-following, 35 masculine, feminine, elegant, sporting, sexy and the .
like. -Furthermore, the garment is warmth-insulating round the hips, consequently an aspect of health.

~h211/~61 WO94/05171 PCT/NL92/001' The psychological effect of figure correction should not be lost sight of.
As the garment also looks already attractive on the hanger at point of sales it promotes the sales.
The silhouette and the fit of the wearer are promo-ted by the use of elastomeric yarn under the preferred flatlock stitch of the connection. ~ith respect to the obvious solution to design the blouses for example some-what longer, the proposal in accordance with the inter-vention does not cause an increase of costs worth mentio ning.
Although in the preamble notably blouse, shirt, smock and the like have been mentioned as examples o~ a garment to which the invention can be applied, the inven-tion is not limited to same, but may be applied to sweat-ers, pullovers or lingerie wi.th a like effect.
