SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N o. 593,'370, dated November 9, 1897.
Application filed May 18, 1895. Serial No. 549,752. (No model.)
To alt whom may concern:
Be it known that I, HENRY J. BROCK, a citiin the county of Erie and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful In1` provcments in Vests; and I do hereby declare the following to be a and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to gures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
,My invention relates to certain .improvements in vests, and more particularly those a short distance the upper edges which form a part of ready-made suits of clothing.
The object of myinvention is to so construct the vest that it can at once be let out or enlarged at the seams without sewing or the employment of additional material.
To that end my in which the inner sections of cloth adjacent to the seams are laid over upon the outer sections or thicker material, forming the pattern of the vest, in the form of plaits and secured thereto by stitching or felling along their outer edges, substantially as hereinafter shown and described.
I will now minutely describe the manner in which I have carried out'my invention, and then claim what I believe to be novel.
Ip the drawings, Figure 1 is a back view of a vest embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a sectional view, in the line g of Figtlofmy im provedseam; and Fig. 3 is a sectional view, y ofFig. l, showing the seam as it ppears when let out.
Referring to the drawings, l 1 are the outer sections ofthick cloth-such as diagonal, broadcloth,'and the likeforming lthe pattern at the front of the vest, and* 2 2 are the outer sections of thinner or cheaper cloth, such as silkaline, forming the back of the vest, or that portion thereof which is out of sight during wear.
' 3 3 are the side seams,funiting the front and back outer sections and extending from the invention consists of a vest- 3 arinholes 4 4 down to the lower edge of the vest over the hips or thighs. 5 .w are the inner sections inside the front outer sections l Land-6 G are the inner Sections inside the back outer sections 2 2, and
7 7 are the seams uniting the front and back inner sections..
At the bottom of vests as '5' now usually constructed these inner sections" 5 and G are composed of the same material as the corresponding outer sections, at least for upward, and the inner and outer sections are connected alongtheir lower 6 edges either by a fine seam or by turning up' the 'outer material and continuing'itinto the inner. The lining proper, if employed, may be of still another material, and issewe'd to of these inner setionsv on .a 6 5 linabout an inch above the bottomof the t vest, whence it extends upward as high as desired, usually tothe top of the garmenti My present invention consists in forming plaits 8 and 9 in both the back sections 2- and 6, as shown in Fig. 2. These plaits are formed of thematerial adjacent to the seams and 7 along their entire length, and .they are rrst drawn oppositelyoutward, so as to be separated from each other, andv then drawn vforward over and laid flat upon the outer sur-v faces of the front sections 1 and '5 of thick cloth without folding the latter at allunited thereto along thefolds at their outer edges' 10 and-11, by stitching or felling 12 and 13, So
aft'er which the'folds'are pressed together in the usualinanner. i My invention can be applied to thev central f ver icalA seam 14, which unites the sections 2 2 of the backof the vest when the collar is 8 divided centrally,as shown in Fig..l,.in 15 is the plait, a similar one being made in the lining. (Not shown.) To enlarge the vest along these seams, it is only necessary to rip thelines of stitching l2 and 13 for all or a portion of their length and unfold and pull out the plaits 8 and 9, and the object is instantly accomplished without the sligl 1t,e st'. mutilation of the garment. and without sewing or the employment of additional materialtgs in the form fof gores, as is now the custom enlarging vests.' I Y My invention is especially valuable in connectionwith ready-made clothing, as it often' happens that a customer who'can be tted-'rod with, for example, a No. 3Gcoat'and trousers cannot wear a No. 36 vest. which necessitates time and labor, or the breaking of e No. 38 or 1. 4Q suit to obtain the right-fitting garment.
With my improved construction the No. 36'
vest can be' instantly made toanswer Without any expense or trouble on t part of the ,delenf .t Then, too, e line of r yqnade suits usually consists of material unlike any which the dealerhas in stock for enlarging garments, and consequently different materials are necessarily used, which present an unsightly appearance, all of which is entirely avoided by my improved construction. The plaits canv be made of any desired width and may be laid over and secured to the materiel on either side o the seams; but l prefer to arrange them as shown, because the folding or doubling of the thicker cloth: lend `5 would form an undesira ablelump or ridge in a garment that need not he let out, as described, in order to insure eet fit, whereas such folding or doubling oi the thinner cloth 2 and- 6, as seen at l0 and -11,.weuld be less likely to raise such objection, It will be obvious that the stitching 12 and 13 could be cut for a short distance only imm: the bottom upward When it was desired 'toy simply enlarge the hip measurement, thus obviating the necessity for inserting a gore, as 'is at present dene, or if occasion arose the vest could .be enlarged in the single back seam or could be enlarged down the side seams from the armholes when desired to give greater size to the arm measurement, all l without departing from 'the spirit of my invention.
l claim- As an improved article of manufacture, the herein-described ready-made vest at whose lower edge the outer and inner front sections of thicker cloth 1 and lie fiat upon each other, the outer and inner back sections of thinner cloth 2 and G are stitched atA their edges at 3 'and 7 to the edges of the front sections alongv the seam-lines and are then formed into pleite 8 and 9 which extend over and lie upon the exposed faces of the thicker cloth-sections, and the outer folds l0 and 1lv of said plaits are connected by stitching or felling 12 and 13 with the thicker sections l and 5 respectively and on lines remote from said seamlines, all as and for the purposes hereinbefore setforth.
In testimony whereof I have signed myname te this specification in the presence of two subscribing Witnesses.
