HTTGRA/EY Patented Sept. 15, 1936 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE Application April 4, 1934, Serial No. 718,992 In Great Britain April 4, 1933 1 Claim.
This invention relates to foundation garment patterns from which design patterns can be obtained, of the kind comprising a plane outline of a half front of a tight-fitting garment having 5 marked thereon the basic fitting lines of the human figure. These basic fitting lines are the shoulder line, centre front line, arm-hole, underarm seam, waist line, hip line, together with the shoulder dart lines and under-arm dart lines.
With such patterns there is a difiiculty in accounting for the roundness of the bust, because one dimension, namely the depth, is omitted.
The object of this invention is to provide an improved and simplified means of accounting for the roundness of the bust.
According to this invention, a foundation garment pattern of the kind set forth, comprises a fixed pattern having marked thereon the basic fitting lines, including the shoulder and the under-arm dart lines, a sheet of translucent material bearing the same outline and fitting lines as are marked on said fixed pattern; superimposed on said fixed pattern and connected thereto by a pivot disposed at the base of the shoulder dart lines, such that the said sheet of translucent material may be moved about said pivot in order that the position of the shoulder dart lines or under-arm dart lines may be changed to a new position on the translucent material, thus obtaining a new design pattern with the same dimensions as the fixed pattern underneath.
The said fixed pattern may be composed of stiff brown paper or other suitable material and the translucent material may be tissue paper or the like.
The invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawing, which is a plan view of a half front of one form of garment pattern made in accordance with this invention.
The half front of the garment pattern comprises a fixed pattern A composed of a sheet of stiff brown paper and having marked thereon the basic fitting lines of the human figure, for example, shoulder line a, centre front line b, armhole 0, under-arm seam d, waist line e, hip line 1, hem line 9 and the shoulder dart lines h, k, waist dart lines 1', i, and under-arm dart lines 7', 7'.
Over the said fixed pattern A is mounted a sheet of translucent material B, for example, tissue paper, by means of a pivot pin 0.
The said sheet B on top is formed into a pattern by tracing through on it the fitting lines which are identical with those on the pattern A underneath, and these lines will coincide until sheet '5 is moved into a new position. When sheet B is moved into its new position, additional lines to form a new design will be marked as well as those traced through from pattern A.
The corresponding fitting lines on the translucent pattern B are marked a, b, c and so on. 6 The said pivot pin C may consist of a T-pin with a threaded shank on which is provided a nut.
The translucent material may be formed with a central aperture for said pin reinforced on one 10 or both surfaces.
Any other suitable form of pivot may be provided instead of the pin described above.
In use, as an example, it will be assumed that the fixed pattern A is a pattern of a tight fitting 15 bodice, that is, a bodice with a dart between the dotted lines h, k, on the shoulder and tapering to a point at the apex of the bust.
Now if it is desired to have a dart elsewhere, thus altering the design of the pattern, the design 20 pattern B is moved about its pivot C until the edge h of pattern B coincides with line 1c of pattern A.
Pattern B is moved until edge h coincides with line K because if a new design is desired, a new 25 position for the shoulder dart must be found. If pattern B is never moved, the design of pattern B will remain permanently the same as pattern A.
There is no new position of the shoulder dart 30 on pattern A. Variations occur only in pattern B, for example, edge It can be moved to coincide with line It, or line It can be moved to coincide with line h etc. In the first example, the revers line and also part of the shoulder line and front 35 center are re-marked with dotted lines, thus moving the shoulder dart into the center front line. In the second example, part of the shoulder line, the armhole and part of the under-arm seam would be re-marked on pattern B with dotted 40 lines, thus moving the shoulder dart to the underarm seam. It will be well to note that in all examples of moving the shoulder dart, the waist and hips of both patterns remain in their original position. Thus in the two examples given, only 45 some of the foundation lines which were visible have been marked with dotted lines on to pattern B after pattern B has been pivoted to a new position. The foundation hip and waist lines, however, remain permanently in the same position 50 both on A and on B patterns, no matter where the shoulder dart is moved to on pattern B.
During the process of moving the shoulder dart, the waist and hip lines in Example 1 have gone back temporarily rearwardly, but automatically 55 10 from the shoulder, the distance between the revers line I and the arm-hole must remain the same permanently.
What I claim is:
A foundation garment pattern from which de- 15 sign patterns can be obtained, comprising a fixed pattern having marked thereon basic fitting lines, including the shoulder and the under-arm dart lines, a sheet of translucent material bearing the same outline and fitting lines as are marked on said fixed pattern, superimposed on said fixed pattern and connected thereto by a pivot disposed at the base of the shoulder dart lines, such that the said sheet of translucent material may be moved about said pivot in order that the position of the shoulder dart lines or under-arm dart lines may be changed to a new position on the translucent material, thus obtaining a new design pattern with the same dimensions as the fixed pattern underneath.
