ApplicationNovembefz, 1946,'Sei-ial Nc'. 70 x462 aciaime (01. 2-243 Our presentinventionrelates generally-to aper garments and a novel me'thod-of fabricating same,
and more specifically to an improved crepe paper costume and method of making the bodice or waist section thereof.
Crepe paper costumes, particularlythese used by children for masqueradescr parties, needto' have a. design and construction such that they simulate the original garment. After considerable experimentation we have foundthat in order' to manufacture apaper garment,- suchas a crepe paper costume, so that it' is both effective'and durable the waist or bodice section thereof should be lined witha textilematerial. For example, a lining material, such as buckram, has been found by us to" be highly advantageous. The buckramlining concurrently was found to act as a guard for the wearer's body against the dye: in the crepe paper. An additional advantage in lining the paper bodice'proved to be the fact that the bodice functioned as a firm foundation for securing the skirt waist hem and-desired sleeve trimmings. The linedbodice, also,- makes ithpos sible to'constructthe dorsal-or back sections in two panels thereby making it possible to put the costume on without slipping it on over the head.
The manufacture of the paper garment of our present invention presented a problem. Crepe paper, for example, has considerable stretch due to its crinkly structure. Upon cutting both the crepe paper and the lining material to the same pattern, we found in sewing them together that the crepe paper stretched and slipped so that the finished bodice was very often distorted or torn. The method was, also, time consuming. We
.solved this problem in a simple manner by first cutting the lining material to the desired pattern, then stitching the patterned lining to an unformed crepe paper without stretching or slippage of the paper, and finally cutting the crepe paper to match the lining pattern. We found that this method of fabricating the waist or bodice section effectively and completely solved our problem.
Still other features of our invention will be apparent from the following detailed description taken in connection with the drawing, in which:
Fig. 1 is a front view of a crepe paper costume embodying our invention;
Fig. 2 shows the rear view of the costume;
Fig. 3 shows the interior of the bodice section of the garment spread out;
Fig. 4 illustrates a patterned buckram lining for the front panel or section of the bodice; and
Fig. 5 illustrates our method of stitching the patterned lining of Fig. 4 to the sheet of unformed crepe paper.
Referring now to the accompanying draw'ir'ig'; wherein like reference mum-ems denote similar" elements; we'have-cho'sen' to' explain our inveii' ti'on with-a dressfcostumeuse'd by girls'in'dancingj" classes-orfballet'. It is to be clearly understood; however, that'we' do notliinitourselves to dresses: Fur ex mme, the iiiv ntiamis applicable w rad ua'tiongownsmade of crepe paper; or to costumes n bybo and sle'evetrimmiiig's 3. These are an made "of cre'pe' paper, and dash lines 4" and 5 denote the respective stitch lines for the skirt and sleeve" trimming.

Thus; numerals H, I|"desig} nate' thei' prier" pair fo tie tapes or cords eweg; to" alternate"sidesof"'line 1': Numerals l2; I2 denote the lower pair of tie tapes sewed to the juncture of skirt and bodice on alternate inner and outer faces, as indicated in Fig. 3. By making the back sections of the bodice in two parts it is readily possible to eliminate the need for slipping the costume over the head.
As shown in Fig. 3 the bodice sections 8, 9 and II) are provided with fabric linings 8', 9' and [0 respectively. Dash line 20 denotes the stitching for securing the lower edges of the bodice crepe paper sections to the lower edges of the respective lining. The stitch line 4, as stated before,
secures the skirt to the bodice. The dash line 2! denotes the stitching for securing the upper edges of the bodice sections to the lining edges. Stitch lines 30 and 3| of the bodice provide the folded hems 39 and 3| of the back sections of the bodice. The shoulder stitchings 40 and 4| secure the upper strap edges of the front section 8 and the back sections 9 and Ill. The dash lines 50 and 5| designate the respective stitch lines between the armpits and the waist of the respective front and back sections. The arm stitching B0 and GI between the crepe paper and lining of each of the front section and back sections completes the stitch lines for the bodice. If desired, darts and BI may be provided by suitable stitching of the front section 8 and the pair of back sections 9 and ID.
The lining 8', 8' and Ill, which we prefer to make of buckram, provides a firm character to the *thedress'shownin Figs. 1;, Zena-5;; miiceor Waistsection-l a-sk'irt 2* Y made of crepe paper and no lining is used. Fi- V v constructed to have considerable stretch which nally, the entire costume presents a tailoredflappearance by virtue of the fact that the bodice crepe paper ,{adheres smoothly and without wrinkles to the buckram lining. We attributethese characteristics of the bodice to our novel method of manufacturing the latter.
4 opportunity to conform and accommodate itself to the lining pattern during sewing. When the crepe pa er BI is cut the resultant bodice section has a firm foundation, and it is found that the crepe paper is smooth and undamaged. Moreover, this method is relatively fast. Of course, the back sections of the bodice would be produced in the same manner as described in connection with Figs. 4 and 5.
What we claim is:
.1. A method of forming a garment from paper includes the following steps: cutting a, relatively Tstiif fabric lining to a predetermined pattern, then In Fig. 4 and Fig. 5 we show an illustrative seiquence of steps for manufacturing the front section of the bodice, although our method is not limited to the illustrative steps. Assuming that numeral 90 in Fig.4 illustrates the buckram lining of a front section, such as 8' in Fig. 3, it will be understood that we first cut the buckram linin 90 to the desired pattern as indicated in Fig. 4. In accordance with our method we do not stitch the pattern lining to a corresponding patterned crepe paper. on the contrary we stitch the patterned lining 90 to a piece of crepe paper ,9l, shown in Fig. 5, the crepepaper being formless. The dash lines 92 indicate the stitch for securin the border of lining 90 to the formless crepe paper Thenext stp is to cut the crepe paper in Fig. 5 so as to match the shape of the lining. We have found. by actual experience that if both the crepe paper and lining material were cut to the esired pattern, then the crepe paper stretched and slipped with the result that the finished, bodice was very often crookedand torn. Further, this method was very slow due to the difficulty of handling the crepe paper. However, by using our present method nostretchingor slippage is encountered, because the unformedsheet has an wherein the paper adheres smoothly and without I wrinkles to the lining.
