  • parts R corresponding to the lines of the gluteal folds in the vicinity of the bases of the thighs are convex portions. This is because, for preventing ride up, it has been considered fine to wrap a wide range from the hips to the bases of the thighs by forming the lines of the gluteal folds in the vicinity of the bases of the thighs having the highest extension rate of the skin into convex shapes.
  • the short panty wraps the lines of the gluteal folds right after wearing the short panty, the ride up of the hem while moving cannot be prevented sufficiently.
  • the back hemline-forming parts 103 B are formed in such a manner that they are extended laterally from the back ends of the crotch part 103 A. That is, the back hemline-forming parts 103 B are formed at the back ends of the crotch part 103 A to form an inverted T-shape. The right and left ends of the back hemline-forming parts 103 B are arranged facing the direction of the crotch part 103 A.
  • the peripheries (c) are formed into curves without convex portions, and there are no protruded parts on the peripheries (c). Since such a pattern allows to form a three-dimensional shape that is close to the shape of the buttocks of a wearer as compared to the conventional short panty, when the wearer wears the short panty 100 of Embodiment 1, the short panty tightly fits the bases of the thighs of the wearer so that the ride up can be prevented.
  • the back hemline-forming parts 103 B are formed in such a manner that they are extended laterally from the back ends of the crotch part 103 A, and the fixing parts L positioned at the right and left ends of the back hemline-forming part 103 B to be fixed with the front part 101 are arranged orthogonally to the longitudinal direction of the crotch part 103 A (the direction of the outline arrow shown in FIG. 13 ( a )).

  • the grid pattern in the vicinity of the hemline of the short panty 100 of Embodiment 1 is extended as compared to the grid pattern at other parts. In this manner, in the short panty 100 of Embodiment 1, the short panty tightly fits at the hemline. Furthermore, in the photographs in the upper row, the corresponding positions are marked with white circles for comparison.
  • the hindmost white circle is wholly exposed from the short panty in the case of the conventional short panty, the hindmost white circle also is covered with the short panty in the case of the short panty 100 of Embodiment 1.
  • the grid pattern at the peripheral area of the top of the hip (the area indicated by Q in FIG. 14 ) is extended and this shows high adhesion of the short panty to the top of the hips. That is, this shows that the planar fabric is under a tension for adjusting to the shape of the wearer's buttocks. Therefore, in the conventional short panty, there is a force for getting back to the original shape acting on the extended fabric and the fabric is pulled to the side of the top of the hips when the wearer moves while wearing the short panty, and this results in the reason for the ride up of the hem.
  • the size of the grid pattern at the peripheral area of the top of the hip is not different from the size of the grid pattern at other parts. That is, since the short panty 100 of Embodiment 1 is in a three-dimensional shape that is even closer to the wearer's buttocks, the fabric at the peripheral areas of the top of the hips is not under an unnecessary tension. Therefore, in the short panty 100 of Embodiment 1, the fabric is not pulled to the side of the top of the hips even when the wearer moves while wearing the short panty, and this results in the prevention of the ride up of the hem.

  • this variation is the same as Embodiment 6. Since the number of fixing steps can be reduced by forming the back hemline-forming part 603 B and the side-forming part 606 as a single member as described above, it is convenient in working efficiency.
  • FIG. 9( a ) shows a view illustrating a pattern for the short panty 800 according to Embodiment 7 of the present invention.
  • the short panty 800 of Embodiment 7 includes a front part 801 , a back part 802 , and an intervening fabric member 803 .
  • the intervening fabric member 803 includes a crotch part 803 A and a back hemline-forming part 803 B.
  • the back hemline-forming part 803 B is formed of a hem material.
  • the front side right and left peripheries (c) of the back hemline-forming part 803 B are straight lines.
  • the angle corresponding to the angle ⁇ is set at 30° or less in the back side direction.
  • FIG. 9 ( b ) shows a view illustrating a pattern for the short panty 900 which is a variation of Embodiment 7.
  • the back hemline-forming part 903 B and the back part 902 are formed as a single member at the right and left. Except for this, this variation is the same as Embodiment 7.
  • a hem material can be used for the back hemline-forming part and the end processing becomes unnecessary. If the end processing becomes unnecessary, it is preferable for the following reasons. That is, the working efficiency is improved because the number of sewing steps can be reduced and better wearing comfort can be achieved because a sewing line does not touch the wearer's skin. Furthermore, since the sewing line of the end processing does not affect an outerwear, it achieves a beautiful silhouette.
  • FIG. 10( a ) shows a view illustrating a pattern for the short panty 1000 according to Embodiment 8 of the present invention.
  • the short panty 1000 of Embodiment 8 includes a front part 1001 , a back part 1002 , and an intervening fabric member 1003 .
  • the intervening fabric member 1003 includes a crotch part 1003 A and a back hemline-forming part 1003 B.
  • the short panty 1000 further includes a lining crotch part 1004 arranged at the wearer's skin side of the crotch part 1003 A.
  • the short panty 1000 is formed of a free-cut material. Furthermore, the hemlines formed of the both outer peripheries (a) at the back side of the front part 1001 in the width direction, the both outer peripheries (b) of the crotch part 1003 A in the width direction, and the front side right and left peripheries (c) of the back hemline-forming part 1003 B at the time of wearing the short panty are wavy lines. Except for this, Embodiment 8 is the same as Embodiment 1.
  • a normal to a back centerline H through a point X at the hindmost position of one of the front side right and left peripheries (c) of the back hemline-forming part 1003 B is defined as a first line J
  • a line connecting the intersection Y of the first line J and the back centerline H and a front end point Z of the back hemline-forming part 303 B is defined as a second line K.
  • the “hindmost point” refers to the point of the wavy outline of the periphery (c) that is closest to the back part side.
  • the angle ⁇ between the first line J and the second line K is set at, as an example, ⁇ (minus) 15°.
  • the outlines of the front side right and left peripheries (c) of the back hemline-forming part can be wavy lines as long as the shapes of the peripheries (c) are concave curves. Furthermore, for example, a part of the outline may be formed into a wavy line or convex. It is preferable to form the hemlines at the time of wearing the short panty into wavy lines with a free-cut material because the silhouette of the short panty is prevented from affecting an outerwear. Furthermore, this may ease the biting of the hemline part into the buttocks.
  • FIG. 11 shows a view illustrating a pattern for the short panty 1100 according to Embodiment 9 of the present invention.
  • the short panty 1100 of Embodiment 9 includes a front part 1101 , a back part 1102 , and an intervening fabric member 1103 .
  • the intervening fabric member 1103 includes a crotch part 1103 A and a back hemline-forming part 1103 B.
  • the front side right and left peripheries (c) of the back hemline-forming part 1103 B are straight lines. Furthermore, also in Embodiment 9, as in Embodiment 6, the angle corresponding to the angle ⁇ is set at 30° or less in the back side direction.
  • a dart part D (area enclosed by the chain double-dashed line in FIG. 11 ) is provided at each of the peripheral areas of the front end points E of the both outer peripheries (a) at the back side of the front part 1101 in the width direction and the peripheral areas of the front end points Z of the back hemline-forming part 1103 B.
  • peripheral areas refer to areas each adjacent to and including the front end point E or the front end point Z.
  • the back side right and left peripheries S of the back hemline-forming part 1103 B are concave curves and the back part 1102 is formed of separated right and left members.
  • the hemlines at the front side of the short panty 1100 can be puffed up by fixing the corresponding parts of the pattern shown in FIG. 11 . This prevents adhesion of the hemlines of the short panty 1100 to the bases of the thighs at the front side of the body and allows the wearer to move the legs easily.
  • a dart part may be provided at each of the peripheral areas of the front end points of the both outer peripheries at the back side of the front part in the width direction and the peripheral areas of the front end points of the back hemline-forming part.
  • FIG. 12( a ) shows a view illustrating a pattern for the short panty 1200 according to Embodiment 10 of the present invention.
  • the short panty 1200 of Embodiment 10 includes a front part 1201 , a back part 1202 , and an intervening fabric member 1203 .
  • the intervening fabric member 1203 includes a crotch part 1203 A and a back hemline-forming part 1203 B.
  • the front side right and left peripheries (c) of the back hemline-forming part 1203 B are substantially straight lines. Furthermore, also in Embodiment 10, as in Embodiment 6, the angle corresponding to the angle ⁇ is set at 30° or less in the back side direction. In Embodiment 10, the front end points E of the both outer peripheries (a) at the back side of the front part 1201 in the width direction and the front end points Z of the back hemline-forming part 1203 B each are a round corner.
  • the angle corresponding to the angle ⁇ refers to the angle in the case where the extended line of the linear periphery (c) of the back hemline-forming part 1203 B excluding the corner adjacent to the front end point Z is assumed as the second line K in Embodiment 6.
  • FIG. 12( b ) is a front view of the short panty 1200 .
  • the pattern for Embodiment 10 allows to form a split part F (area enclosed by the chain double-dashed line in FIG. 12( b )) at each of the hemlines at the front side of the short panty 1200 and allows the wearer to move the legs easily.
  • the front end points of the both outer peripheries at the back side of the front part in the width direction and the front end points of the back hemline-forming part may be round corners and the split parts may be formed at the front side hemlines for allowing the wearer to move the legs easily.
  • the present invention was described above with reference to short panties as specific examples of the embodiments.
  • the bottom garment of the present invention is not limited to those described in the specific examples, and can be embodied in various forms.
  • the present invention can be applied to foundation garments such as girdles, bodysuits, and the like and various other garments such as swimsuits, leotards, sports wears, outer wears, and the like.
  • the present invention can be applied not only to daily short panties but also to, for example, sanitary short panties and short panties for light incontinence.
