Waist band for pants, skirts, with stiffener lining - only two seams required, lining weakened along fold lines

摘要

A band for pants, shirts, blouses, etc. consists of a single piece of fabric for the inner and outer band with a reinforced lining. The edge of the garment is inserted between the inner and outer bands, and at least the outer band is turned in for sewing with a visible seam; the band overlap having an invisible seam. The reinforcement lining has at least two and possibly three weakened fold lines running parallel to each other, at pitching equal to the widths of the bands; one weakened line corresponding to the folded top edge of the band, whilst the second corresponds to the folding-in line of the front band. Only two seams are necessary for a fully satisfactory band.
