SIEGIFIGATION forming part of Letters Batent No. 664,972, dated January 1, 1901.
Application filed July 15,1898. Serial No. 685,979.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE N. SCEE'IS, a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Skirt-Supporters, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part thereof. I
The main objects of my invention are to provide'an effective and con venient supporter for ladies d ress-skirts and to avoid the use of pins, which are unsightly and inconvenient for the purpose.
In the accompanying designate the same parts in urcs.
Figure 1 is an inside view of a portion of a sack or shirt-waist, a belt, and skirt to which my supporter is applied. Fig. 2 is a perspective view on a reduced scale, showing the manner of applying the belt to the person, the skirt being. removed. Fig. 3 is a View, on a reduced scale, similar to Fig. 1, of a part of a skirt, showing the manner-of attaching theredrawings like letters the several figto the hooks which constitute a part of the supporter.
A is a belt of woven fabric, leather, or other suitable flexible material; It is provided at one end with a buckle a, as shown in Fig.2, or other suitable fastening for securing it around the waist.
B is a semirlgid or stiff plate, which may he made of thin sheet metal or of any other suitable material possessing the requisite strength and stilfness, but of sufficient elasticity or flexibility to readily conform to the body without causing discomfort. It is bent to form two outwardly-offset portions 1) b and next to the offsets with transverse slots 11', through which the belt A is passed, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, so as to approximately cover theouter face of said plate. The ofisets in the plate are made of sufficient-depth (an eighth of an inch, more or less) to permit the hooks which are attached to the skirt, as hereinafter explained, to be easily caught over the upper edges of said offset portions, as shown in Fig. 1.
C designates the upper back portion of a skirt provided with the usual band 0 and placket or rent a.
ife model.)
D D are hooks, which are attached to the inside of the skirt-band 0, one on each side of the "placket, as shown in Fig. suitably shaped to be caught over or engaged with and held upon the upper edges of the oil?- set portions 1) b of plate 13, as shown in Fig. 1.
E is a loop attached to the back of the waist F, as shown in Figs; 1 and 2, for holding the belt, which passes loosely through it, in place at that point and preventing the plate B, to which the skirt is attached, from sagging.
The construction and shape of the plate B and of the hooks D D maybe variously modified without materially affecting the nature and operation of the supporter, and the plate B may be attached to the belt in various ways other than by means of the transverse slots 1) shown and described.
The placket or rent c of the skirt may obviouslybe located at one side, or even in front,
without affecting the nature or operation of the supporter.
The devices constructed and arrangedjas above described constitute the supporter, which not only effectively prevents the sagging and dragging of skirts behind, but also promotes the comfort of the wearer and dispenses with pins and other exposed fastenings, which are inconvenient, insecure, and often unsightly.
The oilsetsb prevent the hooks from stickinginto the back and hurting the wearer.
They also greatly facilitate the engagement of the skirt-hooks with the plate and serve to hold the plate in place in the loop E.
They are The plate being made in one piece and inv flexible edgewise prevents sagging on opposite sides of the loop E at the points from which the skirt is supported.
In place of the loop E any other suitable device, such as a hook, may be employed to hold the belt and plate up in place at the back of the waist.
I claim--- 1. As a new article of'inanufacture, a skirtsupporter consisting of a flexible belt and of a plate attached to said belt and formed with outwardly-otfset portions extending through the upper edge thereof, the belt passing outside of said offset portions to bring said portions onthe inside face of the belt and leaving clear and unobstructed recesses on the inner side of the supporter for the reception and engagement of hooks, substantially as and for the purposes set forth. 1 i
2. As a new article of manufacture, a skirtsupporter consisting of a flexible belt provided with a fastening for securing it {around the waist and of a transversely-slotted metal plate formed with outwardly-offset portions extending through the upper edge thereof, the belt passing through the transverse slots outside of the oltset portions of said plate to bring said portions on the inside face of the belt and leaving clear, unobstructed spaces orrecesses on the inner side of the supporter for the reception and engagement of hooks, substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
3. As a new article of manufacture, a skirtsupporter consisting of a. plate formed with outwardlyoifset portions, and with two parallel slots at or near each transverse bend, and a, flexible belt woven through the slots in said plate and passing outside of the offset portions thereof, whereby clear and 1111- obstructed spaces or recesses are afforded on i
