Definitions

  • This invention relates to articles of clothing and to methods of producing such articles.
  • One object of the invention is to provide an article of clothing, especially swimwear, which is relatively simple to produce and which can be worn by the user in several different ways.
  • an article of clothing which comprises an elongate piece of stretchable material which includes a central portion and two end portions, each end portion being shaped to include two side pieces separated by a generally triangular space which tapers inwardly from the outer edge of the respective end portion towards the central portion, the outer edges of the side pieces of one end portion including means by which they can selectively be joined to the outer edges of the side pieces of the other end portion.
  • the two sides of the material piece may include means by which the respective sides can be joined together at one or more locations.
  • the means for joining the two ends and/or the two sides of the material piece may include buttons, press studs or the like.
  • the central portion of the material piece may be waisted; alternatively, the central portion may be generally parallel sided.
  • a further elongate piece of material (e.g. in the form of a belt or lace) may be provided for use as a waist band.
  • the material from which the article is produced is a stretch-type material in which the warps and the wefts of the material move together or independently after one another.
  • the material piece may be cut from a single piece of material and may be provided with stitched seams or edges.
  • an article of clothing made from an elongate piece of stretchable material in which are formed two lengthwise extending generally triangular cut-outs each of which tapers inwardly from a respective end of the material to define two end portions each divided by the respective generally triangular cut-out and a central portion, the central portion defining that part of the garment which in use passes between the legs of the wearer and the end portions together defining straps which can selectively be joined together over the shoulders of the wearer.
  • the article of clothing may comprise a ladies swimsuit or a bodice for another garment.
  • the article of clothing illustrated in the drawings is a ladies swimsuit.
  • the article of clothing in its unassembled form takes the form of an elongate piece of stretchable material which includes a central portion 1 and two end portions 2.
  • Each end portion 2 is formed with a generally rectangular cut-out 3, which tapers inwardly from the outer edge 4 of each end portion 2 to define two spaced strap members 5.
  • Each cut-­out 3 extends lengthwise of the material substantially along the centre line of the material from a point substantially midway across the material width.
  • Press studs 6 are positioned along each outer edge 4 of the material to enable the strap members 5 selectively to be joined by the wearer to produce the assembled swimsuit shown in Figure 2.
  • Additional press studs 7 are positioned at locations along the two sides of the length of material to enable the sides to be joined together at one or more of these locations by the wearer.
  • the central portion 1 is waisted.
  • the central portion 1 is positioned between the legs of the wearer and the strap members 5 drawn respectively over the front and back of the wearer to be joined by the press studs 6 in the shoulder region of the wearer. If desired, the sides of the swimsuit may be joined by means of the press studs 7.
  • the material of the swimsuit is preferably a stretch-­type material which the warps and the whefts move together or independently after one another.
  • the article can be cut from a single piece of material and is preferably provided with stitched seams or edges.
  • Figures 1 to 4 may be used to define the bodice of another garment such as a gown or trouser suit.
  • the articles described may be cut from two or more pieces of material to provide the required usual effect. These pieces may either be stitched together or may be provided by press studs or the like so that the wearer can vary the material pieces used.
