Definitions

  • each shoulder-s rap is attached to a cord which is slidable in, a guide formed on the edge of the corresponding pocket, which cord surrounds the said pocket on one of its sides and at its lower periphery, and is attached, at least at one of its ends,
  • the traction exercised on the one hand and the other upon the said cords v causes the latter to slide in their guides, and owing to the lateral disposition of the said cords, to exercise upon the breasts a lateral constriction by which they are brought towards thesides, and according as the said cords are situated on the inner or the outer side of thesupporting pockets, the breasts will be spread apart or brought together.
  • the breasts are supported by the shoulder-straps themselves, for which the cords serve, so to speak, as the extensions, and thus they are better supported than in the known breast-supporters.
  • Fig. 1 is a front view of a breast-supporter in conformity with the invention.
  • Fig. 2 is an analogous view of a modification.
  • Figs. 3 to 5 are partial views of other modifications.
  • each breast-supporting pocket I on the inner side of each breast-supporting pocket I, is mounted a cord 2, preferably elastic, which is bent upon itself and is slipped under .a' guiding piece 3 consisting of an inserted piece of lace, or the like, which is sewn on the edge of the pocket. At the two ends 2a of the said cord are formed loops which are adapted to fit upon buttons 4 which are secured below the lower, edge of the pocket I, at a point siti'a-ted beyond the vertical axis of symmetry of the said pocket. The upper part of each cord 2 forms a loop to 'which is attached the corresponding shoulder-strap 5 of thebreast-supporter.
  • the traction exercised on'each side upon the cords2 by the shoulder straps 5 causes the said cords to slide in their guides, thus causing a lateral constriction by which the breasts will be displaced to the sides.
  • each pocket is sur-' rounded by four cords.
  • the cords are guided in loops 6. which are spaced at intervals on the edge of the pockets I, and their ends are 5 secured in pairs to buttons 4.
  • the cords 2 are mounted on the outer side of the pockets, in such way "as to'make practically half-a-turn around the pockets, without leaving the main 10 piece of fabric of the breast-supporter, and the .sh' ulder-straps 5 are attached to their upper pa In this arrangement, the cords tend to brin the breasts together.
  • each breast- 15 supporting pocket is surrounded on its lower and inner side by a fiat cord 2, which is optionally elastic.
  • the said cord is guided in loops 6 which ar'e spaced at intervals on the edge of the pocket I, and the cord is secured at its inner end, by 20 means of a loop with which it. is provided, to a button I attached to the breast-supporter.
  • a button 8 or by any other suitable attaching means is attached, by a button 8 or by any other suitable attaching means, to the end of the corresponding shoulder strap.
  • the breast-supporter is preferably provided with a piece of elastic fabric I0 forming a border along the lower part, accompaniedby a"- gusset H situated between the breasts.
  • the said 35 fabric may be employed in a single piece or in The border piece ll) may be eliminated at will, leaving only the elastic gusset H;
  • each pocket 40 I of the breast-supporter is surrounded on its lower and its inner side body of the breast-supporter, by sewing or otherwise.
  • the slidable elements surrounding thebreasts need not. consist of separately secured cords, but may consist of an extended part of the shoulder straps themselves, which latter will thus be given the proper length.
  • a breast-supporter comprising a main piece of. fabric, two pockets adapted to contain the breasts, guides mounted on the edgesof the said pockets along one side of the latter and on their lower periphery, two cords contained in the said guides in such manner as to slide therein, said cords being attached to the main piece of fabric, and two shoulder straps attached to the said piece of fabric, each of the said shoulder-straps being attached to the corresponding sliding cord.
  • a breast-supporter comprising a main piece of fabric, two pockets adapted to contain the breasts, guides mounted on the edges of the said pockets along one side of the latter and on their lower periphery, two elastic cords contained in the said guides in such manner as to slide therein, said cords being attached to the said piece of fabric, and two shoulder-straps attached to the said piece of fabric, each of the said shoulderstraps being attached to the corresponding sliding cord;
  • a breast-supporter comprising a main piece of fabric, two pockets adapted to contain the breasts, guides mounted on the edges of. the said pockets along one side ofthe latter and on their lower periphery, two cords contained in the said guides in such manner as to slide therein, means for removably attaching the said cords to the piece of fabric, and two shoulder-straps attached to the said piece of fabric, each of the said shoulder-straps being attached to the corresponding sliding cord.
