CORSET.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 385,559, dated July 3, 1888.
Application tiled April 23, 1888.
To @ZZ whom, it may concern.-
Be it known that I, JosErH KooN, of New Haven, in the county of New Haven and State of Connecticut, have inventeda new Improvenientin Corsets; and I do hereby declare the following, when taken in connection with accompanying drawings and the letters of reference marked thereon, to be a full, clear, and exact description of the saine, and which said drawings constitute part of this specification, and represent, in
Figure l, an outside view of one half the corset complete; Fig. 2, the several sections which compose the inner thickness, detached; Fig. 3, a horizontal section through theinnerthickness, showing the sections or parts stitched together; Fig. 4, a horizontal section representing the attachment of alternate outer sections or portions to the inner thickness; Fig. 5, the same section representing the introduction of the intermediate thicknesses.
This invention relates to an improvement in the construction of that class of corsets in which more or less of the sections are corded by series of cords parallel with and close to each other, so that the whole section is com posed of a series of close-lying ribs.
In the more general construction of this class of corsets the material from which the sections are to be formed is made from two thicknesses of fabric,with parallel lines of cords and a line of stitches between adjacent cords, then from this prepared fabric the sections are cut to the required shape, and in making up the corset these sections are introduced between the two edges of adjacent sections, the said adjacent sections being formed from two thicknesses of fabric cut to the required shape, the edges of the two sections doubled, so as to produce a nished uncut edge. The doubled edges of the two thicknesses necessarily overlie the corresponding edge of the corded section both inside and out. Because of the necessary doubling of the edges of the two thicknesses which overlap the corded section, the thickness of the corset at the junction of the corded and adjacent sections is very great and unavoidably clumsy. Again, the corded sections necessarily present a somewhat rough or uneven surface upon the inside, and this roughness is Serial No. 271,531. (No model.)
increased very considerably by the doubled edge of theinner thickness of the adj acentsections.
The object of my invention is to avoid this increased thickness at the corded sections; and it consists in making the inner thickness of the corset in sections independent of the. outer thickness, the several sections of the inner thickness stitched together, then the over lying or outer thicknesses laid upon the said inner thickness, the edges of the alternate outer sections overlapping the adjacent edges ofthe intermediate sections, and stitched together through the inner thickness, as more fully hereinafter described.
The inner side ofthe corset is made up from sections cut to give the required shape-say, as seen in Fig. 2-A representing the husk-section; B, the central breast-section; C, theside breastsection; D, E, and F, the side parts, forming thehip-section; and G, the eyelet strip or section. These sections are stitched together, as seen in Fig. 3, and forni theinner thickness of the corset. The outer side, as represented, is made up of several sections cut to the required shape. Reference to the corded sections H will be sufficientfor the illustration 0f the invention. Between these two sections or portions H is a vertical portion or section, J, centrally over the hip.
The corded sections are cut to thc required shape, as also the central hipsection, J. The central hip section, J, is first stitched to the inner portion, inade as before described and as represented in Fig. 4, and is stitched thereto by lines of stitches ruiming through the said section J and the inner thickness, and at each side, distant therefrom corresponding to the sections H, like sections or strips, K L, are stitched to theinner thickness. 'Ihe adjacent edges of these strips J, K, and L are turned under, so as to produce a smooth edge, and the corded sections are laid in their position upon the inner thickness, as seen in Fig. .5, the adjacent doubled edges of the sectionsK J lapped onto the corresponding edge of the corded sec tions, and then lines of stitches run through the doubled edges of the said sections K J, through the corded sections, and through the inner thickness or lining.
roo
The seams which connect the sections of the inner thickness or lining are out of line with those of the outer sections or strips, so that the doubling of the outer and the inner thickness upon the adjacent edges of the corded or intermediate sections is avoided. The inner surface ofthe corset is smooth, and the outer surface presents a neater and smoother appearance than can be done Where the seams ofthe inner thickness correspond to the seams of the outer thickness. The other portions or seo tions of the outer thickness are united in the same manner upon the inner surface, it not being essential to the invention that itshall be applied only to the thicker or corded sections.
It Will be understood that the cut and shape of the sections or portions of which the inner 0r outer sections are niade np may be varied according to the style ofthe corset.
ln a corset substantially such as described, the inner thickness composed of several sections cnt to shape and stitched together independent of the outer tliickness,con1bined with an outer thickness composed of several sections cut to shape, the several sections of the outer thickness laid upon the stitched inner thickness, alternate sections of the outer thickness overlapping the adjacent edges of intermediate sections of the outer thickness, and the said sections of the outer thickness stitched together through and to the inner thickness, substantially as described.
