Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Jan. 3d, if?.
To all yLal/tom t may cof/worn Be it known that l, lCLizAn'rH Fnnonson Huma, Spinster, a subject of King George V ol Great Britain, residing at si() Dowling street, Dunedin, in the Dominion of New Zealand, have invented certain new and useful improvements in Corsets, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to garments used hy wonien for the support of the body.
lt is common in the manufacture ot' corsets to malte each section from a number ot longitudinal strips and to impart the desired `fullness at different portions by the use of strips ot' varying widths, and also by the einu ploymeut of intermediate gore-pieces or darts shorter than the strips, having edges more or less curved.
My invention consists in means for avoiding the objections incident to the ordinary methods ot nninufaeture, and is designed. to iniprove the shape oi the corset by the introduction of sections ot' special. shape whereby the figure may be improved and have the de sired support where it isf most needed wit-hout undue pressure.
ln order that the invention maybe clearly understood l malte reference to the accompanying sheets of drawings, in which Figure l is a 'front view of the corset. Fig. 2 is a side view. 3 is a rear view. Fig. -l is a view showing the separate tions troni which the corset is constructed.
'lhe invention comprises the employment oli several sections numbered l to 9, shown plainly in Fig. 4. T here inay be nine more or less in each hall oi the corset according lo the size of the ligure. rllhe iirst section (l) is narrow at the top (1^) and wide at (he bott-om (in), the second section (2) is wide. at the top and narrow at the loot* tom (9") and so on to the eompletion ot the eorset. with the exception oi the last section (il) which is approximately ot uniform width. ll`he sections are attached to onA other, and are so arranged that the narrow end (ll) olI the iirst sectiei (l) is at the tot) ol' the eorset. and the narrow end '(Ql) olt the seeoinl section is at the bottoni olf the corset; the succeeding sections are arranged in like manner and attached, each alternate one. ha ring ils narrow end at the top, so as to give the desired fullness in the corset where required. Above the waist linel (lil) Fig. fl, the, 'fullness referred to is directed toward the front hy reason of each section beingunited to its adjoining' section in an in rei-ted forni, alternately narrow and wide at the top and bottoni, while the fullness loelow the waist line is directed toward the back. This construction gives the desired support to the bust and abdomen.
ln the corset made accordingr to this invention, the joints (l1)` (l2), (13), (lll), (15), (16), (17), (18), uniting; each section woul appear consecutively, the irst joint (1l) at an angle, the second (12) straight, the third (13) at an angle, the ourth (le) straight, and so on from the front of the Corset., section (l) to section (S) on both sides. Section (9) has a particular shape ot its own, it is straight trom the waist line (l0) up and. -from the waist line (10) down, forming' an angle, the longitudinal edges of said section being amiroxiinately parallel; the object of having section (9) an angular section is to provide a str: ight joint at the center beek when the corset is being' worn and fitting the contour of the body, so that when the two parts are laced together they will loe eapab'le ot being drawn together withoutv twisting the metal pieces usually attached to this section. ln this construction also the stiiteners or bones are less liable to break, the corset strengthened and its shape maintained.
What 'l elaini as new desire to secure hy Letters Patent .-l, corset composed of two similar members each ot' whieh comprises plurality of seetions, the upper extremity of the lirst iront section of each ineinlie above the waist 'line thereof being' narrower than the lower eze tremity ot' the saine section and the second section having an upper .fide extremity and a lower narrower extremity, and so on alter nately throughout the whole series of seetions `toward the back of the inernber ent-,cpt the last section at the back whieh has both the upper and lower el'treniities therecftx ot the. saine width, the upper portion of the last section at the bach having its body vertically straight from the waist line upwardly and angularly disposed relath to the upper part thereof ilroin the waist line downwardly, the sections increasing in length l'roin the l'ront to the rear section the joints between the first and seconl sections being at an angle and z reen the second and third sectie. on alternately 'liroufrhout the series ions. whereby the. fullness of the corset the waist line relatively to a vertical )lane `coincident with the back above the Waist line is directed to my hand in presence of two subscribmg Wit te front zlmd the; fulhess oflthe eorsetlbeow n esses. t e waist ine re ative y to t 1e same p ane is A f f directed toward the rear' of the corset When ELL/ABE FH FERGUSON HUME 5 the latter is applied to the body of the /Vtnesses: wearer. v NELINA MACDONALD,
