Description

STUDIO DRESS Filed Feb. 28. 1930 Patented 6st. 27, 1931 UNITED STATES PATVENTT OFFICE IVIARGARET E. VAN EPPS, OF FLORAL PARK, NEW YORK, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-THIRD T0 ROBERT C. BIRKHAHN, OF WOODMERE, LONG ISLAND, NEW YORK STUDIO DRESS This invention relates to a dress designed especially for the studio or dancing class and has for its object to provide a simple, practical costume which is economical of material and easy to manufacture and launder, gives the wearer a dainty well-groomed appearance, and allows perfect muscular freedom for the technical exercises of the dance.
The dress of this invention is intended primarily for younger students up to about ten years of age, is made of three pieces of material having matched edges which enable the parts to be sewed together quickly without special knowledge or directions, and is ada ted to be slipped on over the head, there y eliminating all fastening means so that no time is lost in getting ready for class.
The three pieces which make up the dress include a seamless circular skirt, and front and back yokes forming the bodice. The yokes are sewed to the edge of a cut-out portion which is formed in the skirt, this edge being so shaped and proportioned as to give a uniqu'eline in the fullness of the skirt with the folds falling symmetrically from the sides of the garment. In the following description I shall illustrate theinvention with certain dimensions for a size 8 dress, it being understood that such dimensions are not used in a limiting sense.
The invention will be described in connection with the accompanying drawings, in
which:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the dress shown on the figure of a child;
Fig. 2 is a rear view with the skirt spread out- Fig. 3 is a plan view of the one-piece skirt;
Figs. 4 and 5 are plan views of the front and back yokes, respectively; and
Fig. 6 is a plan view of the bloomers worn with the dress.
The dress comprises front and back yokes 1 and 2 and a substantially circular skirt 3, each of which may be made from a single piece of folded material.
The shoulder edges 4 of yokes 1 and 2 measure 4 inches and are joined together matching single clipped-in notches, making the shoulder seams. The edges 5 of the yokes measure 2 inches and are joined together matching single notches, making the under-arm seams which completes the bodice.
The lower edges 6 of the yokes areV-shaped or pointed at the center, as shown in Figs. 4 and 5, and together measure 39 inches, seams allowed. This lower edge of the bodice is joined to the edge 7 of the seamless skirt 3, matching corresponding double notches at the front and back and forming the seam at the waist-line. The edge 7 measures 40 inches and is formed by cutting out a hexagonal portion at the center of the skirt, this cut-out portion being substantially longer from right to left than from back to front as shown in Fig. 3.
The bottom edge 8 of the skirt is cut in scallop form and measures 4 yards. The measurement of this edge is balanced proportionally against the measurement of the hexagonaledgeTsothatwhenthe dress is completed it gives an individual and unique line to the fullness of the skirt with the folds falling symmetrically from the sides of the garment, as shown in Fig. 1. The skirt 3 is not exactly circular, but is preferably somewhat wider from right to left than from back to front, as shown in Fig. 3. However, since the triangular portions of the hexagonal edge 7 are at the sides of the skirt, and are sewed to the highest part of the bodice, the sides of the skirt are caught up in graceful easy lines giving a chic, well-groomed appearance.
The neck, arm holes and bottom edges of the skirt may be finished with binding or picot-edging. The dress may be worn with bloomers of conventional type as shown in Fig. 6.
The invention claimed is:
A dancing dress adapted to be slipped on over the head, comprising front and back yokes sewed together at the sides and shoulders and having their lower edges pointed at the center forming a bodice with a contin uous circumferentially extending lower edge which is higher at the sides than at the front and back, and a full substantially circular skirt made in one piece having a hexagonal opening in the center elongated in the direction of the sides of the skirt and having the edge of said opening sewed to the lower edge of the bodicewith the points of thebodice positioned substantially centrally of the r v elongated sidee'of the hexagonal opening, 7 v r the outerP-circlimference of 'said kirt being proportioned with respect to the lengthflof said hexagonal edge tocause the folds ofthe the garment; r I
