ANNIE BUCKELEW, OF LANCASTER, CALIFORNIA.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 754,742, dated March 15, 1904.
Application filed February 141, 1903. Serial No. 142,977. (No model.)
To all whom t may concern,.-
Be it known that I, ANNIE BUcKnLEw, a citi- Zen of the United States, residing at Lancaster, in the county of Los Angeles and State of California, have invented certain new and useful Improvements Ain a Combination Waist Attachment and Skirt-Supporter, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to a combination waist attachment and skirt-supporter, the object of my invention being to provide a device which will secure the skirt and waist at the front so as to hold the former in any desired position of curvaturevas, for instance, in what is known as the French curve, now in vogue. In this style of wearing the skirt it is necessary that the upper edge of the skirt and the band should be much lower at the front than at the back. While various contrivances are now 4used by wearers for maintaining these parts low at the front to give this inclination, none of them are satisfactory, so far as my knowledge extends.
The object of my invention is to provide means for accomplishing the above result in thelsimplest and most effective manner possb e.
My invention therefore resides in the novel construction, combination, and arrangement of parts for the above ends, hereinafter fully specified, and particularly pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a front view in elevation of the front device attached to a corset. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the front support in position on the corset, the garments themselves being shown in dotted lines. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the waist attachment at the front detached.
Referring to the drawings, 1 represents the corset; 2, the waist; 3, the skirt, and I the' belt.
The device for holding down the skirt and belt in front comprises, first, a double hook 6, arranged to t around the front corsetsteel below the lower eye 7 of the corset, said double hook having its central portion between the two hook members 8 formed in a loop 9. Through said loop 9 is passed an elastic strap 10, to the ends of which are attached the broad hooks 11 12. Of these hooks the outer and lower one, 11, passes over the upper edges of all bands of skirts and of the dress and holds down the same, while the inner and upper hook 12 passes over the upper edge of the outside belt in proper place over the dress held by the hook 11.
As previously indicated, the double hook 6 is attached to the corset merely by pushing the same onto the edge of the front corset steel, the short members of the double hook (shown in front in Fig. 3) going behind the corset-steel, as indicated in Fig. 1, while the remaining portion, including the loop 9, comes in front of the corset-steel. It is found that this device remains firmly in position on the corset-steel and cannot be pulled up or down. The advantage of this construction is that the attachment at the front can readily be secured at any height desired within sufficient limits by pushing the double hooks over the edge of the steel at any point below the lowest eye; also by varying the length of the elastic strap 10; also that the skirt and belt are very quickly engaged by said device to be held in their proper relative position. Furthermore, the use of this contrivance dispenses with useless bands, which are a source of annoyance with devices at present used for the above purposes.
1. In a device of the character described, the combination of a clamp for clamping the device to a corset, said clamp having a loop, a strap passing loosely through said loop, and extending upward therefrom, and hooks secured on the ends of said strap, bent downwardly and forwardly to engage the edges ofl nesses.
