This invention relates to new and useful improvements in dresses for children.
One object of the invention is the provision of a childs dress having a petticoat fixed therein so that the "dress may be made of light, almost transparent,l material and yet will provide adequate coverage.
Another object of the invention of a childs dress openable from top to bottom at the rear andhaving a petticoatv fixed therein and openable also.
Still another object is to construct and arrange the dress and the petticoat therein so that each is openable independently of the other.
For further comprehension of the invention, and of the objects and advantages thereof, reference will be had to the following description and accompanying drawings, and to the appended claims in which the various novel features of the invention are more particularly set forth.
In the accompanying drawings forming a material part of this disclosure:
Fig. 1 is a front view of a dress embodying the invention with the sashes open and depended along the sides.
Fig. 2 is a rear view of the dress but with the sashes tied into a bow.
Fig. 3 is a fragmentary rear View illustrating the dress and the petticoat in open condition.
Fig. 4 is a fragmentary rear view illustrating the dress in open condition and the petticoat in Y closed condition.
Fig. 5 is an enlarged fragmentary sectional view on line 5-5 on Fig. 2. l
Referring to Figs. 1 and 2, the invention is shown applied to a childs dress having a bodice portion I0 and a skirt II, and shoulder straps or Suspenders I2 to support the same on a child. It will be understood, however, that the dress may also include shoulder and sleeve portions if such are desired.
Preferably the shoulder straps I2 are secured to the front of the bodice portion I0 and are connectable with the rear portion of the bodice by means of buttons I3; and the skirt I I has secured to the lower portion thereof a strip I4 of suitable decorative material.
Thedress preferably at its rear is slit vertically from the upper to the lower edge thereof, the edges of said slit being folded back and secured by stitching to form hems I5, as best shown in Fig. 3. The two hemmed edges of the dress are connectable together by means of buttons I6 secured to one hem I5 and engaging buttonholes I1 formed in the other hem. The buttons `z claims. (ci. 2-75) IBand the buttonholes I1 are, of course. spaced a suitable distance apart vertically. i
Referring particularly to Figs. 3 and 4, a petti# coat I8 is secured within skirt II in a manner to be described hereinafter and is slit vertically coincidently with the slit in the skirt.` VThe edges of the slit in Vthe petticoat are folded over and secured in place to form hems 20. .vertically spaced buttons 2l are secured to one hem 20 for engagement with buttonholes 22 to. connect together the two halves of the petticoat. Prefer-` ably the buttons 2I are located on the same side of the slit in the petticoat as are the buttons IB secured to the skirt. For beauty. the lower edge of the pettcoat is trimmed with lace 23,.
The manner in which the bodice Ill, the skirt I I and the petticoat I8 are secured together is best illustrated in Fig. 5. The material of the bodice is of double thickness and its lower edge is bound by a tape 24. The upper edge of the skirt II is folded over the upper edge of petticoat I8 as shown at 25, and stitches26 secure said foldover against the inner face of the tape 24. Thus, the bodice, the skirt and the petticoat are secured together by the stitching 26.
In order that the edges of the skirt can be folded back to facilitate manipulation of the buttons ,2| of the petticoat. the connection between the upper edges of the petticoat and the skirt is discontinued at the far edges of the hems I5 and 20, as shown in Figs. 3 and 4. That is to say, the hems I5 are not secured to the upper ends of the hems 20.
As shown in Figs. 1 and 2, sashes 30 have their ends secured to the juncture of the bodice I0 and the skirt II at the sides of the garment. The free ends of the sashes 3Ilare to be extended to the rear of the garment over the tape 24, see Fig. 5, to be tied together into a bow 3I. as shown in Fig. 2.
Preferably the material of the skirt II and the bodice I0 is extremely thin and almost Y transparent for coolness in warm weather; thus.
the petticoat I8, even though of light material itself, is needed to provide the necessary opaqueneSS.
by a zipper or the like and that the garment may also be completely or partly closed.
While I have illustrated and described the preferred embodiment of my invention, it is to be understood that I do not limit myself to the precise construction herein disclosed and the right is reserved to all changes and modifications coming Within the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
