HTTORNE Y5 Patented Dec. 19, 1944 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE SLlI Sylvia Roodner, New York, N. Y.
Application May 27, 1944, Serial No. 537,680
2 Claims.
My invention relates to a new and improved slip.
The objects of the invention are to provide an improved slip of the form-fitting typ havin the following features'and characteristics:
(a) it will automatically accommodate itself and. conform to the body of the wearer; f
(b) it will not ride or bike up on the body of the wearer;
(c) it presents a well fitting and neat garment responding to the movements of the wearer;
(d) it has a minimum number of seams;
(e) it has no side seams, thus reducing the possibility of tearing;
(1) there is no tension on the seams as they are located at the front of the slip;
(y) it has an improved bodice or brassire portion having good bust supporting qualities not present in the usual types of slips;
(h) it is economical to manufacture; and
(i) eliminates the necessity of wearing a sepa rate brassire.
Other objects of the invention will be set forth in the annexed description and drawing, which illustrate preferred embodiments thereof.
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a slip disclosing the principal embodiment of the invention.
Fig. 2 is a rear elevational View of the slip illustrated in Fig. 1, shown partially broken away.
Fig. 3 is a perspective View of a modified form of brassire or bodice portion.
Fig. 4 is a sectional view on the line 4-4 of Fig. 2.
Referring to the drawing, the reference letter B designates the bodice or brassiere portion of the improved slip and the letter S the skirt portion thereof. connected to bodice B to act as supports for the slip.
Skirt S comprises the main panel I2 and the relatively narrow longitudinal front panel or insert I3. Panel I2 is made from bias-cut fabric, that is, fabric cut at approximately an angle of 45, while panel I3 is made from straight-cut fabric.
As shown in Fig. 4, panel I2 forms the major part of skirt S and is formed from a single piece of fabric. Said panel I 2 .forms the complete back or rear portion of skirt S and also a portion of the front thereof. Panel I3 is connected to panel I2 at their vertical edges by the vertical lines of stitching I4. It will be noted that the said lines of stitching I4 are located at the front of the slip, there being no seams or lines of stitching at the sides of the slip. This will give a A pair of shoulder straps II are i longer life to the slip as the seams I4 are located at a place where the tension and stress will be the least. This is true as to both the wearing and the laundering of the slip.
As shown in Fig. 1, panel I3 tapers outwardly as it approaches the bottom of the slip. If desired, said panel I3 may be formed of any suitable elastic material such as Lastex, the direction of elasticity being preferably horizontal.
The upper end of panel I3 extends above the top edge of panel I2, the waistline W of the garment. The said upper portion of panel I3 extends into and forms a part of bodice B. I have designated the said upper section of panel I3 by the reference numeral I5. It will be noted that the top edge of portion l5 of panel I3 is of double concavo-convex shape.
Bodice or brassiere portion B comprises section I5 of panel I3, the front bust panel I6 having a V-shaped neckline, front panels I1 and rear panel I'Ia. Panels H are identical in configuration and size. The side edges of section I5 are connected by lines of stitching to the adjacent ends of panels H at the front of the slip. The curved top edge of section I5 is connected by a curved line of stitching to the base of panel I6. It will be noted that the lines of stitching connecting the longitudinal edges of panel I3 to the vertical edges of panel I2, the lines of stitching connecting the side edges of section I5 to the sides of panels I1, and the curved line of stitching connecting the double curved top edge of section I5 to panel I6 comprises one continuous line of stitching.
Panel I6 of bodice B is located directly above section I5 of panel I3. The side edges of said bodice panel I6 are connected by lines of stitching to the adjacent side edges of bodice panels IT at the front of the slip. Panels I'I are connected to the free ends of back panel IIa by the vertical lines of stitching 2|] at the sides of the garment. Said bodice panels II and IIa are connected at their bottom ends to the top end of skirt panel I2 by a circumferential line of stitching, thus formin the waistline W of the garment. It will be noted that the lower ends of panels II extend below section I5 of skirt panel I3.
In order for the slip to conform itself to the back of the wearer and to make the bodice portion 13 form-fitting, I secure a back strap or belt member I8 within the slip, above the waistline W by means of the stitching 20. Said strap member I8 is completely concealed by the slip, it being located between the front and back portions of bodice B. Strap member [8 is provided with the elastic insert l9 so as to properly accommodate and conform itself to the shape of the back of the wearer.
The principal feature of the invention is the provision of panel 13, the upper section [5 of which extends above waistline W and into bodice B, the upper end of said bodice section l5 being of double concavo-convex shape. It is this double curved shape and construction of section I5 together with bodice panels I6 and IT that give the slip its bust supporting qualities.
The curved upper portions of section I5 act as.
supporting means for the breast. Strap member l8 also plays a role in giving bodice B the effect of a brassire and in making the slip formfitting. It is therefore apparent that by wearing the improved garment, the wearing of a separate brassiere is obviated.
It will be noted that the improved slip is composed of a minimum number of parts. Skirt S consists of only two panels, namely, panels [2 and I3. Bodice or brassiere portion B consists of front panels I6 and I1, back panel Ila, and section 15 of skirt panel 13.
The bodice embodiment in Fig. 3 is substantially the same as bodice B heretofore described. The only difference is the provision of an elastic section l5a in place of fabric section I 5. However, elastic section [511 should be stretchable in a horizontal direction.
I have shown preferred embodiments of my invention, but it is obvious that numerous changes, transpositions and omissions may be made without departing from its spirit. I do not wish to be limited to specific proportions, size and configuration as to the respective panels that comprise my new and improved slip. If desired, back strap or belt member It may be omitted from the improved slip without departing from the spirit of my invention.
My invention is not to be limited to a slip only, as it can readily be embodied in other undergarments and garments.
Iclaim:
1. A slip of the form-fittin type comprising a skirt section and a bodice, said skirt section consisting of a main panel and a longitudinal front insert panel connected to each other at the front of the slip, said main panel forming the complete rear portion of the slip and also a portion of the front thereof, the upper portion of said insert panel extending above the top edge of said main panel into the bodice and forming a part thereof, the upper end of said insert panel being of double concavo-convex shape, said bodice consisting of two similarly shaped front panels and a front bust panel located therebetween and a rear panel, said front bust panel being located above and being connected to the curved top end of the insert panel of the skirt section, said front bust panel bein also connected to the front bodice panels at the front of said bodice, the bottom ends of said front and rear bodice panels being connected to the uppe'r end of the main panel of the skirt section to form the waistline of the slip, and a back strap member connected to said bodice intermediate the front and back portions thereof.
2. A slip in accordance with claim 1 in which the material of the main panel of the skirt section is cut on the bias and the material of the insert panel of said skirt section is cut on the straight.
SYLVIA ROODNER.
