APPLICATION FILED JULY 18. 1919.
Patented Aug. 17, 1920.
INVENTOR H e e H \A/eeks WI Til/8858 A TTORNE Y8 UNITED STATES HELEN WEEKS, OF N EW YORK,
PATENT OFFICE.
N. Y., ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF T SAMUEL E. DURANT, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
DRESS-SHIELD.
Application filed July 18, 1919. Serial No. 311,801.
New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in Dress-Shields, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description. I
The object of the invention is to provide certain new and useful improvements in dress shields so that they can be quickly, conveniently and securely attached to the dress without resorting to sewing or to the use of safety pins. Another object is to permit of quickly removing the dress shield from the garment whenever it is desired to launder the garment. Another object is to.
provide an attaching means for detachably holding the dress shield in position on the garment in an inconspicuous manner and without being visible through the garment in case the latter is made of georgette, chiffon or other light material. ject is to permit of readily applying the attaching means to the various styles of dress shields no generally in. use and without re uiring alterations thereof.
ith these and other objects in view, the invention consists of certain novel features of construction as hereinafter'shown and described and then specifically pointed'out in the claim.
A practical embodiment of the invention is represented in the accompanying drawings forming a part of this speclfication, in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the views.
Figure 1 is aface view of the dress shield in position on the garment viewed from the inside thereof, part ofthe dress shield being shown broken out;
Fig. 2 is an enlarged cross "section of the same on the line 22 of Fig. l; and
Fig. 3 is an inverted plan view of one corner of the dress shield with the flaps or leaves shown opened up or extended to disclose the attaching means.
The dress shield in its general construction comprises a body flap or leaf l0 and an arm flap or leaf 11, the flaps 10 and 11 being united at their upper concave edges to provide a concave joint 12. The body flap 1O fits against the inner face of the garment body 15 below the corresponding sleeve 16,

and the arm flap 11 fits into the sleeve 16 at I the bottom thereof adjacent the joint 17 con-- necting the garment sleeve 16 with the garment bod 15. It is understood that the joint 12 o the flaps 10 and 11 approximately coincides with the joint 17. The dress shield so far described is the same as now generally used.
In order'to detachably fasten the dress shield in place on the garment, use is. made of attaching means, preferably in the form of two pairs of snap fasteners, located at or adjacent the corners of the dress shield.
Each pair of snap fasteners comprises a.
It isunderstood that when the stud member 21 is in engagement with the socket member 20 the corresponding corner portions of the flaps 10 and 11 overlie each other at the cornersand hence the said members 20 and 21 are not visible from the outsideand are wholly inconspicuous. It will further be noticed that when it is desired to detach the dress shield from the garment it is only necessary for the user to pull the 1 members 20 and 21. apart to disengage the stud member 21 from the corresponding loop 30. It is understood that by the use of the loops 30 the stud members of the snap fasteners do not pass through the material of which the garment is made and hence the garment is not liable to be injured especially as the dress shield is repeatedly attached and detached during the life of the garment.
-Although I prefer to locate a pair of snap fasteners at each corner of the dress shield, it is evident that I do not limit myself to this particular location as snap fasteners may be located along different points at the joint 12, and more than two pairs may be used, if desired.
It will also he noticed that the dress shield can be readily attached to the bottom of the armhole of a corset cover or similar sleeveless garment. I
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent \K In combination, a garment having a body and sleeves, spaced loops at the junction of the body and sleeves and projecting from the said junction, and a dress shield having.
a body flap and a sleeve flap, the flaps being united at their upper edges, a snap fastener on each corner of the dress shield and having a socket member and a stud member, one of the said members being secured to the outer face of the body flap and the other member being attached to the under sideof the arm flap, the stud of the said stud member passing through the corresponding loop and engaging the socket member to fasten the dress shield in position on the garment.
