  • the pattern of each of the pockets is so cut out as to form two darts which give to the pocket the shape ofthe breast, and are set according to two perpendicular or approximately perpendicular directions, in such a manner that the fabric is on the straight in each of the two directions according to which it is more particularly desirable to ensure the support of the bust for obtaining the above mentionedadvantag'es, that is to say, on
  • the following arrangement has moreover been provided for holding the brassiere in position, and thus allowing the pockets to always efllciently fulperson wearing it, without utilizing uncomfortable securing means which often hurt the wearer.
  • the brassiere is continued at the back by strips of fabric which, in order not to roll up, are attached by bonds to the girdle or to the corselet, this complicating the placing of the brassiere in position and becoming rapidly uncomfortable and unaesthetic.
  • the above inconveniences are avoided by giving to. the fastening side straps, and, more particularly, tZcthei'r inner and lower edges, such contours that they perfectly fit the shape of the thorax, particularly at the lower point of the shoulder blade.
  • Qder straps are stretched so as to lift the bust.
  • Fig. 1 illustrates the pattern of a pocket.
  • Fig. 2 is ageneral perspective view of anen according to this pattern.
  • Figs. 3 and4 illustrates anotherembodiment comprising in addition an improved system of
  • Fig. 3 is a general perspective view.
  • Fig. 4 illustrates the pattern of a fastening side strap.
  • Each of the pockets of this brassire is made according to a pattern such asthat illustrated in Fig. 1. a 1
  • Itsupper edge B1 B'1 is in the shape of an inverted V and its portion B1 is set according to a direction F1 -on the straight of the fabric, and one of its side edges, B2, corresponds to the middle portion of the brassiere. 4
  • the shape of the breast is given to this pocket by means of two darts P1, P2, that is to say V- shaped notches the sides of which are adapted to be connected one to the other by stitching, and, which, according to the invention, are arranged as follows:
  • the dart P is arranged on the outer side of the pocket and its upper side is substantially parallel to the straight F1 of the fabric;
  • the dart P2 is arranged at the lower portion of the pocket, its sides being directed at right angles or approximately at right angles to the homologous sides of the dart P1, and one of these sides being consequently directed also according to a straight F2 of thefabric.
  • the pocket is given the desired shape by stitching these two darts as illustrated in Fig. 2, this, in particular, procuring to the bust a perfectly emcient support, on the one hand, at the lower part of the breasts, which is held in lifted position as indicated at I and, on the other hand, laterally, as indicated at L.
  • the middle seam connecting the edges B2 of both pockets is concealed atits-lower part by a strip P, and, according to a particular arrangement of the invention, the upper part of this assembly is gathered at F, thus contributing in giving to the pockets a shape which perfectly fits that of the breasts.
  • the brassiere shown in Figs. 3 and 4 comprises two pockets made as above'described, and on the sides of which are sewn; or secured in any suitable manner, side straps D which are attached at the back for instance by means of an elastic band B.
  • Theattaching of the brassiere is completed by means of shoulder straps E.
  • each of the side straps D is so cutout as to perfectly fit the shape of the thorax, particularly, as previously stated, at the lower point of the shoulder blade, so that the brassiere is thus held in position without having to tighten it too much, is prevented from working up, and that the side straps D are also prevented from rolling up.
  • their lower edge has a curved concave shape such as indicated at D1 in Fig. 4;
  • the lower edge D1 is preferably strengthened, for instance by a false hem thatis to say a strip of fabric the length of which is directed according to the cross of the fabric and. which is folded as a hem, this strip being stitched in zig-zag as shown in Fig. 3 that is to say according to crossed lines oblique relatively to the length of the strip so as not to prevent the extension of the latter.
  • each side strap D is so cut out that the straight of the fabric is set as indicated at F3 in Fig.4, that. is to say tangentially .to the middle portion of the edge D1, and so as to be horizontal or approximately horizontal when the brassiere is in position.
  • shoulder straps E to be suitably adjusted for obtaining a satisfactory support; for that purpose, these shoulder straps are provided with slides C allowing to stretch them.
  • the above embodiments have been described solely'by way of example, and that it is possible, without departing from the scope of the invention, to make any suitable modifications in the same, according to the indications which have been given.
  • the portions D can be modified according to the particular form or conformation of the person who is to wear the brassiere.
