WITNESSES /%L A TTUHFIEVS UNITED STATES PATENT @FFICII.
DAVID J. MGKENNA, or n vetnwooi), NEW JERSEY.
FLOUNCE FORE PETTICOATS.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, DAVID J. MoKENNA, a citizen of the United States, residing at Englewood, in the county of Bergen and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Flounces for Petticoats; and I do hereby declare the following'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.
This invention relates to improvements in wearing apparel and more particularly to flounces for petticoats.
The object in view is the provision in a petticoat of a body portion the full length of a skirt and a flounce made independent thereof but stitched thereto.
Another object of the invention is the arrangement in a petticoat of a body portion and an independent flounce secured to the body portion by a line of stitching, the flounce being formed with a draw string ar rangement for adjusting the size of the flounce to the body portion.
A still further object of the invention is the provision of a flounce so formed as to be readily securable to any skirt or petticoat.
WVith these and other objects in View the invention comprises certain other novel constructions, combinations and arrangement of parts as will be hereinafter more fully described and claimed.
In the accompanying drawing :-Figure 1 is a view of a petticoat including a flounce embodying the invention. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the flounce removed. Fig. 8 is a large detailed fragmentary sectional view of Fig. 1 approximately at line 33 thereof.
In forming a petticoat embodying the invention a body portion is constructed in any desired manner for giving the proper set thereof which may receive an independent flounce which is secured thereto by one or more lines of stitching. The body portion is made preferably plain while the flounce is made of either the same grade of material as the body portion or of better material and is also preferably made more or less fanciful in appearance. The upper edge of Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed. November 16, 1909.
Patented Feb. 8, 1911).
Serial No. 528,351.
the flounce is turned over andsecured by a line of stitching for accommodating a draw string whereby the flounce may be gathered more or less at the upper edge as desired for fitting the body portion or for improving the appearance of the flounce.
The principal idea in forming the flounce as set forth is that the same may be secured to the body portion of any petticoat either one speciallymaue therefor or to a skirt which has had a flounce removed therefrom. This is of great advantage in that one can make a body portion and then simply buy a flounce and secure the same thereto by a line of stiching so that the completed skirt will have a finished appearance and yet will have a proper fit or set that the person deslres.
In order that the invention may be more clearly understood, an embodiment of the same is shown in the accompanying drawing in which 1 indicates a body portion and 2 the flounce as a whole. The flounce 2 may be formed of any kind of fancy work at the lower edge 3 and over the surface thereof as desired. At the upper edge the flounce is turned over forming an inner flap & which extends entirely around the flounce and is held in place by a line of stiching 5 which is interrupted at the point 6 for permitting a draw string 7 to be operated in the space provided therefor by the turning over of the upper edge of the flounce. The draw string 7 is pulled or drawn and the flounce properly adjusted thereon until the upper edge thereof is of proper size to secure to the lower edge of the body portion 1. The draw string is then tied or left untied as preferable. After the flounce has been adjusted to the body portion 1, the same is secured in position preferably by one or more lines of stitching 8. By thus arranging the body portion of the petticoat independent of the flounce, any desired flounce may be fitted to any body portion. Also if desired, the flounce can be ripped off the body portion and a new flounce secured thereto. It will be noted in addition that a flounce may be made of more or less expensive material and the body portion of cheaper material and yet a substantially integral and continuous Petticoat is pr0- vided. \Vhat I claim is In a etticoat, a body portion, a flounce 5 therefor formed with a turned over flap, a
line of stitching for holding said flap in position, a draw string inclosed by said flap arranged to adjust the size of the flounce and in presence of two witnesses.
