:b'er 11, 1941 "This invention relates to improvements in :girdles and materials tise'd in the manufacture "thereof.
The present -application is a '*dii ision of my co-pending --applic'ation se'rial -No. "422,557, filed ;v
'Dec. 11,'1941.
' One of -the principal difiicu'lties' experienced inthemanufacture of girdles ist he 'provisionof a 7 eat and comfortably fitting waist portion which possesses suificie'n't stiffness to resist permanent 'vvithrgirdles -made 'in I accordance with aiore :s'a'id priorapplication To thi'send the material used inv the fabrication -'of girdles' madedn-accordancewith the present vinvention is woven so as to fprovi'de Ia r body section, a first lip section =wovehintegr'al with-"the upper'edgeof the body section and a'secQnd lip "section WOVn integral with the aubpenedgew'f thelfirst mentioned up crimping 0r curling thereofby bending and other movements of the wearer. The best method now knownrer bverc'o'lnin'g this nime un consists'in making the upper edge ofagirdle intheform of a narrow, fiat, tubular containing-a plur'ality er short vertically extending stiffening elements spaced {around the circumference "of the garment. Various waist-stiffened girdles of this type have been broiosed and adopted biitthe present invention relates; more bartic'iilarli'r, "to improvements in waist-stiffened girdles of the type disclosed in my co pending application se- 'Iia'1N0.'395,"176, 'filed'hla-Y' 25,).1941. I Girclle'slnad'e in accordance with the invention-disclosed'in said 'app1ication"'-are 'ch'aracte'ri-zed in that the? band forming portion is woven integral with the body portion and contains stiffening elements made of cord stiffened hiece's-eftextile fa'bric,'
said band forming mention-comprising two' lip sections having their upper edges sewn together and their lower edges iwniren integral iwith the bo'dy portion :of the girdle. making the band by sewing together the upper edges of two epposl'n' lip smti'cn's has-certain manufacturing advantages :ascompared with similar waist-stiffened girdles in 'whic h :the 1001" respondi'ng ban'd is woven as a complete tube during the weaving of the body forming: portion of the girdle or material'from which =th'e girdles are to be made. On the other hand,. the fo'rmatirin'of the band .bytsewing togetheriztheup'per edges'nfthe band forming lip sections as ,dis closed in .mypri'or' application has the disadvantaize 0f presenting. an (unsightly seam 'at the extreme :upper edge of the garmentland this seam must be covered by a binding striprtoiim prove the'appearance "of the garment and to guard against'cnening cf :the seam-due to wear. The application of the binding,-"stripljincreases the bulkiness ofsthewupperiedee of the' girdIe and forms an uhc'ornfortableridge which presses .into'the'hodyofthefiwearer. i
The main'purpose' of the presentinvention is to provide an f impr'ovedjform ioi girdle-which is free of. the'l dbjectioris: noted i=inffconnection This method Of section; s ai'dmaterial bein'g woven so as to pro- =Vide "a definite fold line or a hinge connection at the junctnreof the'two lip section's.

of the' I first 1 'lip- .isec-tibn, V ertically sextendin'g "stiffening members are interposed between the twoopposing lip sectins and the latter are then secured together by lines or stitching arranged to' hol'd lthe stiflening niembers inplacei' This method b'f forining', foldingandjoining 'the lip section's provides, 'in effelit',v a flat; two-ply band which presents a finished seamless appearance,
along that portion of the tbandwhi'ch constitutes 'the extreme'upper:edge'of the. girdle. "The lip softhat the'fol'ded'lip section, when disposed at the inner sections are made of substantial width the-Wear'erin the': same manner as the relatively -'narrovv=rid'ge formed by the binding strip which is anplied to th'eupper'edge of the'band formed by lip "section's :joined together in accordance width the invention" disclose'd in my prior application; in 'somecases the'lower edge of the Second orfold'ed lip section maybe se'vvnto the lower edge hf the first mentioned lip section; or
to :a p'orti'on of the body'section'adjacent the 1 lower edge -of said. first mentioned lip section. In this' 'caseaa fiat, tubular band is formedby stitching the-ioweraedge of'the second lip section in place after the two clip sections have previously been joined together by lines of stitch ing which serve to hold the stifiening jmember's inplace.
-Another advantage of the present invention ,is that itprovides 'a methodiof fabricating maiterial 1 f or use ;in the manufac'tureof Waist-stiffened girdles :which lends itself to the provision of =desirable rreinforeed edges at the lower: edge of a "the body section and upper and; lower lip section.
' The foregoingas well asother objects, advantages and characteristic featuresv of this inven- 'In fabri'cat f l at the upper-edgeof the vfirst mentioned lip section and at both "the edges of the second'mentioned .tion will be more readilyunderstood from the following detailed description and accompanying drawings, in which- Fig. l is a front elevation of a complete waiststiffened girdle made in accordance with said in- Fig. 4 is a view illustratin the weave of material from which the girdle shown in the-3.
preceding figures is fabricated.
As shown in Figs. 1 to 3 inclusive, my improved girdle comprises a woven body section 5, a lip section 6 woven integral-with the upper edge 1 of the body section 5 and aisecond lip section 1 woven integral with the upper edge of the first Each of the lip sections 6 and I is made of two sets of warp yarns respectively indicated at l5 and 16. The yarns 16 are flner and lighter in weight as compared with the yarns l5 and the latter are finer and'lighter in weight as compared with the warp yarns ll of the body section 5.
Preferably, therelation between the size and weight of [the warp yarns l1 prov'idedin the body section 5 and the size and weight of the warp yarns l5 and I5 provided in each of the lip sections 6 and I is such that the tube portion of the garment formed by the folding and sewing of the I lip section '1 will have substantially the same weight andstrength as the body section 5. The yarns. I5 of each of the lip sections 6 and are preferably made of rubber, Lastex or other elastic material. I These yarns l5 are prefmentioned lip section 6. In fabricating this gar- 1 ment'the lip section 1 is first folded downwardly into opposing relation with oneside (preferably the inner side) of the lip section'6. r' This provides a two-ply band along the upperedge of the body section 5 and this band is stiffened against ermanentcrimping or curlingby 'suitableistiifening members 8. arranged between the component plies thereof. The two-band forming plies or lip section 6 and 1 are -.then joinedztogether. by lines 7 of stitching 8a and 811 (Fig. l which are arranged to hold/the stifienin'g membersB-in place. In this connection it will be noted that each line of stitching 8a extends around the lower end and upwardly along the sides'of' one of the stiffening members 8'while each lineof stitching 8b extends along and'through the central portion of one of the stiffenin members. In some-."cases the lines of stitching 8b maybe omitted, in which event each stiffening member will be held in place sole 1y bythe line of stitchingtd; :Itwill jalso-be understood that each line of stitching 8a may also be arranged as in Fig. 3 so thatit actually passes through theside' and lower end portions of each stiffeningmember; I
' 'As shown more particularly in Figs. 1 and3,
each stiffening member 8preferably consists of a relatively long and narrow vertically extending piece of textile fabric stiffened by agroup of t closel spaced vertically extendin textilestiffeningcords 9. The stiffenin 'element 8 are preferably provided with straight upper end edges 10 of substantial length and convexly curved lower end edges II. It will be understood, however,
that conventionalstiifening bones or other suitable forms of stiffening elements may be used in place of the textile stiffening elements 8.
' In some cases the 'lower'edge of the folded lip section I is secured by a line of stitching Ia (Fig. 2) either'to the lower edgezportion of the lip section 5 or to an adjacent portion of thebody section 5.- In most cases the lip sections are simply joined together along the lines of stitch+ The material used in the fabrication of the girdle shown in Figs. 1 to 3 inclusive is prefer- 'section'i' and the two lip sections 6 and I. The
weft yarns M are preferablymade of rubber, Lastex or other material possessing considerable'elastic stretch but this is not absolutely essential since, if-desired, the weft l4 maybe'composed; ofr'elativel non-stretchable textile yarns of any suitablematerial.
I ing 8a and/or 86 which serve to hold the stitch in members 8 in place.
Owing to the. circumferential direction of the elastic warp yarns included therein the finished 'girdle'will cling closely to the figure of the wearer stretchable'stiifened waist portion which closely hugs the "figure of the wearer at all times and yields readily to bending movements of the wearer'while preventing permanent crimping or curling of thewaist portion due ,to such bending movements- -It may'also'be' pointed outthat, even when the weft yarns used in the body and lip sections are inherently non-stretchable, the weave of the fabric is such as topermit the finished garment to have a limited stretch in the vertical direction thereof. M
The'fine rayon threads l6 incorporated in the lip sections 6 and '1 serve as'filling threads in these sections of the fabric' and also assist in giving 'suchsections' the same strength as the body section 5 despite the fact that the'elastic'warp the warp yarns I! of the body section.
. Having'thusfdescribed' what I now conceive to be the preferred embodiment "of this invention, it
will be understood that various modifications may be resorted to within the'scope and spirit 4.,A woven fabriccomprising a. body section, a
lip section Woven integral with'theupper edge of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
