Definitions
- the present garment is Euttonless but it is so arranged at the neck as to give sufficient opening to pass thehead without carrying this opening so low as to unduly expose the chest.
- the garment as disclosed also has great advantages as to economy of materialand labor required in producing it.
- Economy in the production of the garment of the invention in the preferred form results from the design of the garment which is constructed in such a way that it is possible and feasible to make the entire body portion from a single piece of material which is folded transversely over the shoulders to form the front and back, the edges of the material being sewed together at the sides.
- the garment is preferably made with a tapering plait on each shoulder which gives the desired fit at this point without cutting of the material This plait also has a certain reinforcing efiect similar to that of a yoke.
- Figure 2 is a side elevation of the garment on a reduced scale, the sleeves being removed for convenience of illustration;
- Figure 3 is a plan of the shoulder portion of the garment or more particularly the material cut in the form of the garment human.

- a hole is cut for the neck, the same being preferably sharply tapered toward the front and back. This One hole is a little forward of the longitudinal center so that while the back is cut slightly low it is not as low as the front and the circumference of the opening which is long, narrow and tapered at the ends as shown, is sufficient to pass the head.
- the lon tapered neck opening as best shown in Figure 3 is an important feature of the invention whereby a buttonless garment is made feasible for this purpose as it gives sufficient length of the edges to pass the head without a sufiicient area of opening to give objectionable or dangerous exposure.
- the back portion of the neck is indicated by reference character 3 and the front by reference character 4.

been used, These are objectionable both 'on account o'f the'- frequency with which they are pulled off when being washed and in; use and because of inconyenien cejand,discomfort on account of cutting and scratching of the wearers skin by the buttons.
Bu-ttonless garments have been attempted but it has been found necessary to out these so low in the neck as to involve danger and discomfort on account of exposure of the ulmonary region. The present garment is Euttonless but it is so arranged at the neck as to give sufficient opening to pass thehead without carrying this opening so low as to unduly expose the chest.
The garment as disclosed also has great advantages as to economy of materialand labor required in producing it. Economy in the production of the garment of the invention in the preferred form results from the design of the garment which is constructed in such a way that it is possible and feasible to make the entire body portion from a single piece of material which is folded transversely over the shoulders to form the front and back, the edges of the material being sewed together at the sides. The garment is preferably made with a tapering plait on each shoulder which gives the desired fit at this point without cutting of the material This plait also has a certain reinforcing efiect similar to that of a yoke. v
In the drawing Figure 1 is a front elevation; e
Figure 2 is a side elevation of the garment on a reduced scale, the sleeves being removed for convenience of illustration;
Figure 3 is a plan of the shoulder portion of the garment or more particularly the material cut in the form of the garment human.

eferring to t e drawings by numerals the garment as illustrated consists of a body I portion; 1 .which may, if desired, be pro-. ,of the vided with sleeves 2 of any preferred length. As .shownthese sleeves; are of only quarter length and it is believed that this typeof'sleeve is preferable for this garment. The material is ordinary flat oods meaning that it is woven as distinguis ed from knit The body portion 1 is; made of a single iece ,of 'material f twice the length of the ody 'of. the, garment. To shape the ;material inaccordance .with the pattern, a piece of suitable width equal to; half the circum ference of the garment around the waist or whatever may be the widest portion is cut to a little over twice the length of the garment. Centrally of this a hole is cut for the neck, the same being preferably sharply tapered toward the front and back. This One hole is a little forward of the longitudinal center so that while the back is cut slightly low it is not as low as the front and the circumference of the opening which is long, narrow and tapered at the ends as shown, is sufficient to pass the head.
The lon tapered neck opening as best shown in Figure 3 is an important feature of the invention whereby a buttonless garment is made feasible for this purpose as it gives sufficient length of the edges to pass the head without a sufiicient area of opening to give objectionable or dangerous exposure. The back portion of the neck is indicated by reference character 3 and the front by reference character 4. The neck opening may, if desired, be bound by sewing to the edges thereof a suitable strip of material 5.
The shoulders are formed by folding the material at each side of the center of the neck opening as indicated and sewing it in two plaits, preferably of increasing width outwardly from the neck portion toward the ed es. The plaits thus tapered serve as a rein orce taking the place of a yoke and give the necessary incline to the shoulders resulting in the desired fit as illustrated.
The arm holes are cut in an obvious manner being formed by curves 7 and 8 in the opposite edges ofthe material at the ends of the shoulder plaits. The material as'cut is next folded over about the plaited portion and the meeting edgeshelow the-arm holes are sewed together tormingthe body of the garment. A pocket 9 may he added if desired. Sleeves are not essential to the garment structure but they may be provided of threequarters length or any preferred length as indicated by reference "character 2;"beingsewed into'the arm holes i'n 'an obvious and well known manner. 1
Important features of the invention are first the elongated'tapered neck portion as shown which gives-suflicient length to the edges of the opening-to pass'the headfat the same time keeping the neckofthe' gar-- ment as worn sufficiently closed to pr-event undueexposure, the one piec shire tu're, the body portion of whic'hflisformed' by 't'oldi'ng' the Ie'ngtIi' ofmaterial about the transverse line of'the shoul ders- -and-' fitting by providing a perferably tapered plait fo't th'etop of the shoulders." L
I'have thus described specifically and in detail a garment constructed-in accordance with the preferred form-of the invention in order that'the nature and operation-t" the ters Patent is A buttonless pajama coat, the body portion of 'which is formed in a single piece consisting of a strip of woven inelastic material of a widthequal to half the circiimfe'rence' ot tlie garment, the said strip having "e neckopening centrally located and elongated in the" direction of the length of the sti-ip, plaits of outwardlyincreasing width extendingirom near the center of the neck portion to' the 'outer 'edgesof the strip unearth side, the-meeting edges of thematerial being secured together'from the bottom to point below the shoulder, the 'upper 1')ortions-at"the'ends of' the plaits being deft-open to form the arm holes.
