SOLOX BRYANT, OF WVORCESTER, MASSACHUSETTS.
CORSET=LACING.'
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 319,190, dated June 2, 1885.
Application filed July 12, 1882!. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, SOLON BRYANT, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Wbrcester, in the county of YVorcester and State of Massachusetts, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Laoing Corsets; and I do hereby declare the foilowing to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being bad to the accompanying drawings, and to letters or figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
This invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in a means for lacing corsets or other wearing-apparel; and it is designed more especially as an improvement upon the patent of Honghton, dated September 27, 1881; Smith, dated September 21, 1880, and Bray, dated April 17, 1883; the object of my invention being to dispense with eyelets or lacing-holes or other metallic fixtures, and to obviate certain objections existing in the hereinbcfore-named patents.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a rear view of the two parts of the back of the corset. Fig. 2 is an enlarged detail view showing one of the flaps removed, and Fig. 3 is a transverse section of Fig. 1.
In carrying out my invention I provide each portion of the garment or corset (indicated by the letters A and B) with a series of wide flexible loops, a, of textile material, which are secured between the inner and outer flaps b b at the adjacent edges of the corsetsections at suitable intervals by means of stitches. These loops are located directly opposite each other, so as not to extend beyond the projecting edges of the flaps b b of the corset-sections A B. At the edge the fabrics are united to each other and to one side of the loop a, so as to extend completely over the same. By this means it will readily be seen that both the inside and outside of the joint will be plain, flush, and smooth throughout, the space between the loops c a being partly occupied by the cords G, which overlap each other between said loops. By arranging the loops in this manner they are covered, and the cord is protected so that it will not come in contact with the body, which renders the same much more comfortable to the wearer, and the lacing of the joint, which is covered, cannot show through light fabrics or dresses when the same are worn.
This style of loop is also much stronger by reason of the same being pocketed and secured between the fabric, instead of to one side of the same.
The connecting-cord C may, if desirable, be of elastic material.
It is evident that this invention possesses many advantages over these styles of lacing which employ metallic fixtures, as said metallic fixtures are objectionable to the wearer and render it difficult to launder the garment.
I am aware that heretofore it has been proposed to construct a shoe-fastening wherein the edges of the upper were each provided with an inner and outer flap, between which pulleys were located; but in such construction the character of the pulleys maintained the flaps away from each other, thus objectionably enlarging the shoe at its fastening. Moreover, I am aware that it has been proposed to secure loops on the exterior of a corset; but in such construction the loops were so secured that if externally located they presented an unsightly appearance and were liable to easy removal, and if on the inner side of the corset they would render the wearer uncomfortable. In my constructionI secure the loops between the flaps and secure the same by stitching, piercing the flaps to insure the positive retention of said loops, which are neatly covered, and do not materially increase the bull; of the article at the fastening portion. Y
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The improved corset-lacing herein described, consisting of a series of loops,-a a, of flexible material, secured at suitable in the loops in the recess formed by the flaps, substantially as set forth.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in to presence of two witnesses.
SOLON BRYANT.
