PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
A New or Improved Combination Jacket or other Garment for Ladies.
I THOMAS PRICE, of Nos. 51 and 53 Knight Rider Street, in the City of London,
Manufacturers Agent, a communication to me from abroad, by Paul Lamm, of 28
Jerusalemer Strasse, Berlin, Manufacturer, do hereby declare the nature of this
invention to be as follows:-
My invention relates to a new or improved combination garment for ladies, and has
for object to enable a lady possessing such a garment to alter its shape and arrange-
ment by suitably manipulating the two collars thereof as to give the same, four
different forms or appearances, as if these were four different garments.
And in order that my invention may be more fully understood, I shall now proceed
to describe the same with reference to the accompanying drawing in which Figs. 1. 2,
3 and 4 show the four different forms or appearances which my improved combination
garment may be made to assume. Fig. 5 is a plan showing the relative position of
the two collars when they are both raised.
My improved combination garment consists of a jacket J made of any desired cloth
or fabric and suitably lined with a different material.
This jacket is furnished at the top with a tab t and collar C to which is sewn or
otherwise fixed the collar D of a waistcoat w. Although I shall describe the four
different forms of my improved garment in connection with the said waistcoat W,
I may dispense with the latter while still retaining the inner collar D. In the form
shewn in Fig. 1, the two collars C & D are raised, the right front of the jacket is
placed over the left front thereof and the tab t is secured to the button 6 of the latter
front.
In the form shewn in Fig. 2, the collar C is bent over at the back, the two front
pieces of the jacket are folded down at the top so as to form two facings ff1, display-
ing the lining of the jacket, the two edges of which are fixed together at a by means
of a hook or other suitable fastening means.
In Fig. 3 the two collars are erect and the two front edges of the jacket are bent
over so as to show the two facings likewise displaying the jacket lining. Fig. 4
shows a similar form to that illustrated in Fig. 2, with this difference, that in the
former case the edges of the jacket are left loose.
