1 This invention relates to children's dresses. One object of the invention is a novel and improved childs garment which is characterized by the freedom of body and leg movements per- 'mitted without binding on the body, by the simplicity in design and make, by possessing without simulating the functions of a panty and by the low cost of manufacture.

- Referring to Figs. 1 and 2 of the drawings I have illustrated a childs dress I embodying the invention, In the particular embodiment shown the upper or main body part of the dress is formed of a multiplicity of panels and in this particular embodiment the front a is formed of a single panel, and the back b is also formed of a single panel. The skirt part of the dress is also formed of a multiplicity of panels and likewise each side half portion is formed of a multiplicity of panels. In the particular embodiment shown each side half portion is formed of two panels, a front and a back panel, that is one side is formed of a front panel 0 and a back panel d while the other side is formed of a front panel e and a back panel These panels c, d, e, f are identical in shape and dimensions and relative proportions and a description of one will apply to the other three. Referring to the panel 0 it is provided with an upper and inner straight edge 2, an intermediate curved edge 3 and a lower curved edge 4. The lower edge is indicated at 5 and the outer edge is indicated at 6, both of these edges being straight edges. As indicated, each of the panels 0, d, e, f is identical and in the making of the garment I the panels 6 and e are sewn together along their curved surfaces 3 whose concave sides face each other while the curved surfaces 4 of the panels 0 and d are sewn together and likewise the curved surfaces 4 of the panels e and f are sewn together. The panels 0 and d are sewn together along their edges 6 and the panels e and J are sewn together along their corresponding edges 6. The upper front part of the garment is formed in the embodiment illustrated of a single panel a. having a tapered lower part with straight edges 2' which are sewn respectively to the straight edges 2 of the panels 0 and e. The upper back part of the garment is formed as indicated above of a single panel b and like the panel a it is formed with a tapered bottom part matching and mating with the V formed by the straight edges 2 of the panels ,1 and d. The back panel I) may be formed if desired with a slit E0 in the upper part thereof the sides of which are formed with suitable fastening means for facilitating the removal and the putting on of the garment. The upper front and back panels a and b are sewn together along mating edges II and I2 to form the seams l2 and ll which form respectively continuations of the side scams 6 formed when the front and back lower panels are sewn together at the side. The seams formed by sewing the straight edges 2 and 2 together are indicated at 13 and the seams formed between the curved edges 3 are indicated at 3. The seams formed by sewing the curved edges 4 together are indicated at 4'.
The upper front panel a is provided with shoulder straps l5 and the back panel 12 is provided with corresponding shoulder straps l5 and these shoulder straps may be fastened together in any suitable fashion at their meeting edges to form the continuous shoulder straps illustrated in Figs. 1 and 2. In the particular embodiment shown the depth of the back panel I) is slightly greater than the depth of the upper front panel a at their central portions, the relative depths in the embodiment shown being as 19 to 16 and. the shoulder straps I5 are slightly longer than the shoulder straps 15'.
A garment is thus formed wherein the waist line M-N passes through the upper end l6 of the seam 6'. The crotch of the wearer is indicated roughly at the dotted line -O'-P which passes through the lower points I! of the upper front and back panels a and b. The crotch of the garment is indicated roughly at the dotted line R.S. Lower garment portions are formed at the bottom of the skirt each being of a circumference between six and seven times the length of the bottom portions. For example, as indicated in Fig. 5 the depth of these lower skirt portions is indicated as approximately 4 41 while the circumference is twice the width of one of the panels at the bottom, namely 29y, and further assuming that the measurement indicated is in inches and allowing for seams, the circumference of each of the bottom portions of the skirt would be roughly say 26 or '27 inches, while the length of the portions would be roughly 4 inches. The depth of the crotch of the garment indicated by the line R-S to the crotch line of the wearer indicated roughly at the line O-P is equal to and preferably greater than the-depth or length of the lower skirt portions. The line O-P indicates the maximum depth of the wearers crotch and the line O-P is preferably slightly below the crotch of the wearer, and the curved concave edges 3 when sewn together is greater -than the curved edges 4, and hence the distance from the wearers crotch (0-?) to the beginning of the lower side portions of the skirt is greater than the length of these portions. At the line O-P the circumference of the skirt is 42y as compared with the circumference of each one of the lower-skirt portions of 29y. The total depth of the front of the garment is roughly 2511 of which the part above the line -O-'P is 16y while the back the garment is 28y deep, with the upper panel b being that much deeper than the front panel a.
The structural design of the garment including the relative proportions above described results in a "particularly serviceable garment for children. It gives the child every freedom of move- '1rrrent'demanded without binding in any part of athletics and other equivalent movements of the Ibody simulates a skirt while .the separate lower skirt portions permit the wearing of the dress without the necessity of any other garment such as underepanties. The relative proportions of the garment make it possible for the child to attend to the ordinary personal matters without undoing any .part of the garment. 'The garment is inexpensive .in that may be made on a quantity production basis.
The embodiment :of Figs. '7 'to .10 inclusive is similar generally to the embodiment of Figs. 1 to 6.. The lower panels 0, d, e, f are identical in relative proportions, shape and structure. The lower parts of the .panels a and Th correspond exactly as to relative proportions and dimensions as the panels a and b. However the back panel b is of the same depth as the front panel a'.. Also instead of the shoulder straps being formed .of the same material as the front and backlpanels .a and b they are formed of separate narrow straps 2 0 and 21 which are fastened at22, 23 respectively to tabs projecting up from the sides of the .panels a and b This embodiment has among others the advantages described the garment. This garment also simplifies the laundering for mothers .because everything is in one piece and the combination garment may not only be laundered with ease but its design and make-up are of sturdy character, and also due to the lack of binding on the child the garment wears longer, with consequent labor saving and expense for mothers.
