4 Claims.
ThisV invention relates generally to womens garments. More particularly, this invention 1elates to the type of womens garments referred to as combination garments.
One of the objects of my invention is to provide a novel construction for feminine combination garments in the general form -of a house dress or' house coat with pajama features incorporated therein.
Another object'of my invention is to provide a combination garment of the character described which can be quickly and readily donned and removed and which provides a maximum of concealment for the wearer.
Still another object of my invention is tov provide an improved garment construction of the character described which shall comprise relatively few and simple parts, which shall be relatively inexpensive to manufacture, easy to as- O semble, sturdy in construction and which, at the same time, shall be highly practical and eiicient.
Other objects of this invention will in part be obvious and in part hereinafter pointed out.
The invention accordingly consists in the features of construction, combinations of elements, and arrangement of parts which will be exemplified in the construction hereinafter described, and of which the scope of application will be indicated in the following claims.
In the accompanying drawing, in which is shown one of the Various possible embodiments of this invention.
Fig. 1 is a front perspective view of a ladys garment embodying my invention, -with the front thereof in opened position disclosing the interior construction thereof;
Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the garment illustrated in Fig. 1 but showing the same in closed or fastened position;
* Fig. 3 is a perspective view similar to Fig. 2 but illustrating the back view thereof; and
Fig. 4 is an enlarged cross-sectional view taken substantially on the line ll-- 0f Fig. 3.
Referring now in detail to the drawing, I have r disclosed a garment Il! of the type generally referred to as a wrap-around house dress comprising a back section Bi, la pair of side sections I2 and i3 attached thereto and a front section F. The side sections i2 and i3 may be designed so that their free longitudinal edges are substantially contiguously disposed at the front of the garment, or they may overlap, as shown in the drawing, and be provided with suitable r'eleasable fastening means, such as buttons, l5, cooperating with suitable buttonholes. The side sections l2 and I3 comprise continuous waist and skirt portions and neck and collar portions of any suitable design. The back section B comprises an upper waist portion I6 and a lower portion il attached to said .Waist portion IB, the said lower portion comprising a pair of panels I8 and I9 (see Figs. 3 and 4) The front section F comprises an upper waist portion 2l) and a lower portion 2l `attached thereto, said portion 2| comprising a pair of panels 22 and 23 which may be of substantially the same size and contour of the panels i8 and iQ, for reasons which will soon become apparent. In assembling the garment, the outer longitudinal edges of the panels i3 and 22 and of the waist portions l and 2t are joinedby a continuous seam Zit to the inner longitudinal edge of the side section l2, said seam 2li-eX- tending froin the lower edge of the garment to the armhole. Similarly, the outer longitudinal edges of the panels I9 and 23 and of the corresponding edges of the waist portions i6 and 20 are joined by a continuousv 'seam 36 tothe inner longitudinal edge of the side section i3. The upper edges of side sections l2 and it and back waist portion l are joined by a pair of seams 25 on the shoulder of the garment, extending from the armhole t0 the rear ofthe neckline.` The upper edges of the side sections l2 and `l are designed to meet at the center of the neckline in a seam 26 and to serve as a collar. Above the crotch, the back panels i8 and i9 are joined by a seam 29 running from the crotch 28 to the waist portion i6. Similarly, the front panels 22 and 23 are joined above the crotch 28 b-y a seam 3D which extends from the said crotch 28 to the lowerinost point ofthe hookless fastener device 3 i hereinafter described. YThe inner longitudinal edges of the panels i9 and 23 are joined by va seam 2l, while the inner longitudinal edges of the panels i9 and 23 are joined by a seam 21a.
The seams il and ila terminate at a point 28- to form `a crotch for the pair of separate leg members thus formed by the .panels I8 and 22 :and i9 and 23.
The. lower edge of .the back waist portion I6 up er of the back lower portion il are joined by a seam 32, while the lower edge of the front waist portion 2B and the'upper edge of the front lower portion 2l' are joined by a seam 33.
As shown in the drawing, the leg members which are formed bythe respective panels i8 and 22, and i9 and ,23 maybe so constructed and arranged as to simulate a pair of' pajama legs.
The side sections I2 and i3 Vmay be provided with inner panels 3l, disposed adjacent the free longitudinal edges thereof and which extend from the lo-wer edge of` the dress to the seam 26. One longitudinal edge of the panel 3l may be Xed to the free edge of the side sections while the other longitudinal edge of each of said panels 3l are adapted to hang free from the lower edge of the garment to a point near the armhole. The panels 37 serve to give a tailored appearance to the front of the dress and, when the reverse side of the material employed in making the garment ||l is not identical with the front side of the material, the pattern or design of the material may be presented on the collar 46 which is formed by turning down the side sections I2 and i3 `where they encircle the neck. The garment l may be provided with suitable armholes to which sleeves 4| are attached. It is noted that the upper edge of the waist portion 2| extends approximately to the armholes.
To don the garment the wearer spreads apart the sections I2V and I3 to open the front of the garment, then places a leg in each of the leg members through the top thereof, after which the garment is pulled upwardly and the arms inserted through the sleeves 4|. The side sections I2 and i3 may then be wrapped around in overlapping relationship and fastened at the front in the usual manner, such as, for example, the buttons i5 and cooperating buttonholes. To facilitate the action of stepping into the leg members the front section F of the garment above described, is slit from the top edge of the waist portion 2| downwardly to a point near the crotch 28 and the edges of said slit provided with cooperating hookless fastener elements 3| and a slider 42. It is thus seen that when the slider 42 is pulled downwardly to the lowermost part of the fastener device 3|, there will be sufficient room to very easily step into the leg members, after which the slider 42 may be moved upwardly to its original position to hold the pajamas in place.
It is thus seen that I have provided a combination garment construction in which the wearer will be protected against revealment, due to the fact that when Worn the leg members always serve as a protective covering even when the sidepanels l2 and i3 of the garment |D are in open position, as shown in Fig. 1. v
The garment ID, when Viewed from the front as shown in Fig. 2, has the appearance of a neat looking house dress whereas the garment from the back, as shown in Fig. 3, presents an appearance of a pair of lounging pajamas.
If desired, a panel may be stitched to the rear of the garment at the waist and along the side seams so as to cover the leg members, and in this way obtain the effect of a complete house dress both in front and back.
It will thus be seen that there is provided a device in which the several objects of this invention are achieved, and which is well adapted to meet the conditions of practical use.
As various possible embodiments might be made of the above invention, and as various changes might be made in the embodiments above set forth, it is to be understood that all matter herein set forth or shown in the accompanying drawing is to be interpreted as illustrative and not in a limiting sense.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent:
