Definitions

  • This invention hasreference to an improved bust-bodice designed to afford the wearer adequate and correct support while permitting perfect freedom of movement and 6 presenting a more natural appearance than eretofore.
  • Bust-bodices have hitherto usually been constructed with a waist band intended to pass round the body of the wearer and to be 10 fastened at the back or front, the breast supports being attached to the waist band and provided with suitable shoulder straps.
  • An object of the present 20 invention is to' obviate these defects and to provide a light and simple form of construction in Qwhrch the combined effect o the various parts is to keep the supports 1 correct and comfortable position and to impart a natural appearance.
  • a; bustbodice having.breast supports constituted by two substantially triangular pieces of, material overlapping orvintersect- :0 ing so as to have a common base line for a part of their length, each of said supports having attached at its outer corner a strap or lateral extension, elastic or otherwise, adapted to pass around the wearers back and be '35 connected to the inner corner of the same support or a-point equivalent thereto on the base of the other support, such that with shoulder straps extending from the upper corner of "each support to the outer corner thereof or 0' an adjacent part the tension of said shoulder straps and the lateral extensions is taken along the inner sides of the supports.
  • each breast support may be regarded as more or less separate and inde- 46 pendent, inasmuch as the ends of the lateral extension assin' around the wearersback are connected respectively to the inner and outer corners of the support, while the shoulder strap serves to retain the whole in posi- 80 tion Itis convenient however to stitch or join the two supports together where they cross or over-lap, and it willtherefore be apparent that the two may be cut from a single piece of material without substantially affectll'- "1I1g their function, provided the inner ends of the lateral extenslons are attached to the common base of the twosupportsat points a substantially in prolongation of the inner sides of the supports.
  • the tension of the shoulder strapsand the lateral extensions is taken along the inner sides of the supports and tends to draw those sides nearer to the body and form a depression between the breasts, which are thereby supported separately and naturally,
  • the supports may be provided with pleats, darts, or tucks to 've them the necessary fullness and the desired form.
  • Fig.2 is a view showing the device as it.”
  • a rounded contour thereto tucks or' darts B are taken in the bases of the triangles and and in order to impart gradually diminish to about the centres of the supports. It is to be understood that the supports may be given shape in any other manner or by the use of further tucks ordarts.
  • lateral extensions C and C preferably though not necessarily elastic, an arranged to pass around the back of the wearer and fasten to button-holed tabs D 'and D respectively, that is to say the extension C passes around the back and fastens to the tab D and the extension C passes round the back in the opposite direction and attaches to the tab D as will readily be seen by reference to Fig. 2.
  • these tabs D and D are secured at the inner corners of the triangles, or, where the supports are cut to shape from a single piece of material, at the points Where the inner sides of the triangles produced cut the bases, these points it should also be noted, lying substantially vertically under the apices to which shoulder straps E and E are secured, the other ends of the shoulder straps being attached to the outer corners of the supports.
  • the supports A and A are made from separate pieces of material, they may if desired be made from two squares of material folded diagonally, the diagonal folds forming the bases of the supports, which may be stitched down along the over-lapping sides or merely sewn together at the corners, as desired.
  • A. bust-bodice comprising breast supports constituted by two substantially triangular pieces of material intersecting in front so as to have a common base line for part of their length, a lateral extension strip attached to the outer extremity of each support and passing around the wearers back and connected to the inner extremity of the same support, and a shoulder strap extending from the upper corner of each support to a point adjacent the outer eornerthereof.
  • a bust-bodice comprising breast supports constituted by two substantially triangular pieces of material intersecting in front so as to have a common base line for part of their length, elastic lateral extension strips attached to the outer extremities of the supports and passing around the Wearers back in opposite directions and connected respectively to the bases of the opposite supports substantially vertically under the upper corners thereof, and shoulder straps extending from said upper corners to points adjacent the outer corners thereof.
