CONVERTIBLE GARMENT.
Specification of Letters Patent.
' Application filedJanuary 25;- 1918, Serial No. 213,752.
You whom it may concern:
Be it known that LFANNII: H. Sor-nviurrz, a citizen of the United States, residing at Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New Yorlnhave invented new and useful Improvements in Convertible Garments, of which the following is a-specification.
This invention relates to convertible gar ments.
The inventionis particularly designed for use as a womans under garment but the same is possessed of such functional features that will permit the same to be advantageously employed as an outer garment and to have the effect of a riding habit, bloomers or the like.
An object of the invention resides in the provision of means which will permit the user to readily convert the garment from one design to another, giving to the garment at all times, a taseful and attractive forma-j tion.
With the above and other objects in view which will appear as the nature of the invention is better understood, the same consists in the improved construction and novel arrangements of parts which will hereinafter be fully described and particularly pointed out in the claim.
In the accompanying drawings, has been illustrated, a single andpreferred form of the invention, it being, however, understood that no limitations are necessarily made to the precise structural details therein exhibited, but that changes, alterations and modifications within the scope of the claim may be resorted to when desired.
Figure 1 is a front view of the garment.
Figure 2 is a similar view, showing a different adjustment thereof.
Figure 3 is a section on line 8-3 of Figure 1.
Figure 1 is a section online 4.. ure 2.
The garment consist-s of an upper waist portion 10, and a lower skirt'portion 11, it being preferred that the upper and lower portions be constructed from the same integral piece of material. The skirt portion is divided or bifurcated at its center both at the front and at the backof the garment. At the back of the skirt portion of the garment, the portion 12 at one side of the center of the garment is provided along its edge with a number of resilient heads or similar fastenings 13. At the other side of the l of Figcenter ofthe garment, the portion lat, of the skirt section isprovided with resilient sock- I ets 15 which are adapted tomate: with the heads 13 when the garment is adjusted as shown in, Figures-1 andS. At the front the garment is formed in a similarmamier, the portion 16 thereof at-oneside of the center having a number of resilient, sockets 17 adapted to mate with resilient heads 18 on the portion 19 of. the garment-at thefront and at the other side of the center thereof. This arrai'lgement permits of a skirt forma tion and the same can be conveniently employed either as an outer garment or an in ner garment as will be fully understood.
The formation of the garment as above outlined, permits the user to readily convert the same from an apparently undivided skirt to a bifurcated or divided skirt as shown advantageously in Figures 2 and 4.
When it is desired to transform the garment from one design to another, the snap fastenings above mentioned, are manipulated; and assuming it desirable to establish the form of garment shown in Figures 2 and 4, said respective fastenings are all released from the positions which they occupied in Figures 1 and 3, and the fastenings 13, en:
the lower ends of the leg portions, each tape being provided with elements constituting the complementary members 25 and 26 of Patented mule, 1922f snap fastenings of well known construction.
The tapes are permanently secured at one end only-the lower end in Figure 1-and the free ends are attached to fastening members 21 on the outside of the garment when the latter is in skirt formation.
While it is described. that the garment is only bifurcated through a certain portion of be bifurcated substantially throughout its entire length and connected together in any suitable well known manner. In the present instance, it is preferred to seam the garment at the front on a vertical line from the neck to the top of the bifurcated portion. When its length, it nevertheless follows that it may used as an inner garment, various tasteful effects may he brought lnto vogue. The garment is simple of construction, attractlye,
extremely useful and is capable of being converted. from a garment of one design to that of another at the option of the user. L
*lVhat is clainiedas new is A. one piece undergarment for covering the shoulders, body, and limbs, and comprising a waist section and a skirt section, the Waist section having a closed front and back and the skirt section beingdivided vertically at the center of thefront and back for forming tWo leg; portions continuous with the Waist, fastening devices on the inner edges of the leg portions,such devices being positioned to permit of'engagement for fastening the garment around the limbs individually and for fastening the garment at other times so that the front portion will be continuous transversely for forming the front of the skirt and 'thebac'k portion Will be sin:-
ilarly connected to form the back of the FANNIE H. SCHWARTZ.
