  • Publication number: 20190216140
    Abstract: A molded fabric laminate includes first and second fabric layers, each fabric layer including at least 80% natural fibers, and a patterned layer of cured shape memory elastomer molded between the first and second fabric layers. The patterned layer of the cured shape memory elastomer is a continuous layer of the cured shape memory elastomer defining a multiplicity of openings per square centimeter of the patterned layer, where the openings are free of the cured shape memory elastomer. Making the molded fabric laminate includes disposing a patterned layer of an uncured shape memory elastomer on a first fabric layer, contacting the patterned layer with a second fabric layer to yield a fabric sub-assembly, contacting the fabric sub-assembly with a surface of a heated mold, and molding the fabric sub-assembly to conform to the shape of the mold. The molded fabric laminate is typically part of a garment.

  • Patent number: 10285453
    Abstract: A brassiere includes two cups attached by a central link, a lateral band affixed onto a side of each cup and terminating at a central rear hook, and a strap supporting an upper part of each cup. Each strap extends forward via an internal reinforcement edge meeting the central link and via an external reinforcement edge separate from the cup forming an upper contour of the lateral band. A support edge, starting underneath the cup, extends outwardly, rising continuously to terminate at a rear attachment point of the strap, where the support edge forms an upper contour of a support piece independent of the lateral band.

  • Patent number: 10045570
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a bra comprising two cups for accomodating the breasts of a user in which each cup is constituted by a piece of extensible textile material in the form of a substantially planar sheet when the bra is not worm, wherein a major part of the surface of the sheet is cut along a plurality of notches with a limited length arranged all around an inner part of the sheet in such a manner as to form a reversibly deformable structure suitable for being deployed to the front in a direction substantially transversal to the plane of the sheet under the effect of the weight of the breasts when the bra is being worn, causing this sheet to assume a volume conforming to the shape of the breasts and capable of supporting the breasts.
