GARMENT SUPPORT.

Application filed August 21, 1925. Serial No. 51,558.

5 to provide a device of the type stated, in

a manner as hereinafterreferred to, which may be readily attached in position for supporting a number of garments or detached therefrom, which is simple in its construiztion and arrangement, adjustable, attractive in appearance, and comparatively inexpensive to manufacture. I

With the foregoing and other objects in view which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the combination and arrangement of'parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood that changes "in the precise embodiment of the Z0 invention hereinafter disclosed can be made within the scope of what is claimed without departing from the spirlt of the lnvention.

In the drawing wherein like numerals of reference designate corresponding parts throughout the several views Figure 1 is a front viewof 'a garment support in-accordance with my invention.

Figure 2 is a rear view thereof.

Figure 3 is an enlarged plan view of the garment attaching member.

Fi ure 4 is a side view thereof illustrating the application of the strap therewith.

Figure 5 is a fragmentary view illustrating the attachment of my improved support with a garment.

Referring in detail to the drawing 1 denotes a shoulder strap, constructed from ribbon or any other suitable strip fabric. The strap 1 has one end portionthereof folded or bent rearwardly upon itself, providing a loop 2, the inner end of which is attached to an adjustment clip 3 slidably connected with strap 1 for permitting of the adjustment of the latter to a length required.

Each-end of the strap 1 is provided with a garment attaching member 4 consisting of a fiat metal plate 5 formed with a pair of transversely extending

slots

6 and 7 disposed adjacent to respective ends of the plate 5. The plate 5 is further provided with a hook 8 which is stampeddirectly from the plate 5 and formed with a circular head 9. The hook *8 is disposed slightly outwardly relatively to the even plane of the plate 5 and is adapted to engage the loops on the garments which it supports, while the head 9 will prevent its disengagement from the hook The strap 1 is attached to the garment securingmembers 4 by passing the end of th strap, rearwardly through the slot 6 and forwardly through the slot 7, after which the strap end is folded rearwardly to overlap the back of the securing member 4 and secured to rear side of the strap 1, as clearly shown in Figure 4, of the drawing. By this arrangement the metallic garment securing members 4 cannot come in contact with the skin of the user.

A pair of fabric covered loop' slides 10 are slidably mounted on the strap 1. Each of the slides 10 has its front face embellished by an attractive ornamentation 11, and is intended to be positioned over the garment securing member 4, at respective ends of the strap 1, after the garment 12 I to be supported is attached to the members- 4. When so covered by the loop slide 10 and its associated ornamentation 11, the connection of the strap 1 with the garment Will not be discernible, but will be concealed, as shown in Figure 5 of the drawing.

It will be noted that the garment securing member 4, mounted in the strap loop 2, is shiftably connected therein permitting of its adjustment to the end of the strap when the latter has been adjusted relatively to its length as herein before described.

What I claim is 1. A device for the purpose set forth comprising a shoulder strap, a arment securing member attached to eac end of said strap, a slide shiftably mounted adjacent to each end of said strap and provided with an ornamentation for concealing the attachment of said securing members with the garment, said securing member consisting of a flat metallic plate provided with a transversely extending slot disposed adjacent to each end thereof, said member fur ther formed with a hook having an enlarged circular head, substantially as described and for the purpose set forth.

2. A device for the purpose set forth comprising a shoulder strap, a garment securing member attached to each end of said strap, a slide shiftably mountedadajcent to each end of said strap and provided with an 2 -1,eoo,e 12
