DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

(9) To gain a better understanding of the above features and advantages of the invention, the invention will be described in detail below with reference to embodiments and accompanying drawings.

(10) As shown in FIG. 1-FIG. 7, this embodiment provides a dress with a body-shaping function. The dress with a body-shaping function comprises an outer dress 10 and a body-shaper lining 20.

(11) In this embodiment, the outer dress 10 is a double-strap slip dress composed of a dress body 11 and two straps 12 symmetrically disposed on a collar of the dress body 11, wherein the length of the straps 12 can be adjusted according to personal requirements; and a hemline can be designed to have different lengths, for example, the bottom of the hemline may reach the middle of the thighs, the knee joints or the anklebones; and the dress body 11 can completely cover the body-shaper lining 20, and after being worn by wearers, the dress body 11 droops naturally to cover the body-shaper lining 20. In some other embodiments, the straps 12 may be tied around the neck, that is, the outer dress 10 is a halter slip dress.

(12) The dress body 11 may be made of common fabrics on the present market, and is preferably made of a polyester-elastane knitted fabric, a cotton-elastane knitted fabric or a modal knitted fabric. Wherein, the modal fabric is soft, smooth, skin-friendly, comfortable, good in drapability, high in dye-uptake, bright and rich in color, distinct in printing and color separation, capable of absorbing and releasing water molecules at a rate higher than that of pure cotton, and more breathable than pure cotton. The fabric is preferably of a 2*2 rib structure, thus having good elasticity and being not prone to edge curling when stretched laterally; and stitch wales are clear and plump in surface.

(13) In this embodiment, the body-shaper lining 20 is located inside the dress body 11 and is completely covered by the dress body 11, and atop end of the body-shaper lining 20 is sewn or bonded on the dress body 11 along the collar of the dress body 11. By designing the joint of the body-shaper lining 20 and the dress body 11 on the collar, the joint of the body-shaper lining 20 on the outer dress 10 can be hidden, and no obvious bonding trace will be seen from the appearance of the outer dress 10; and the dress body 11 can be held by means of the tension of the body-shaper lining 20 next to the skin and the suspension effect of the straps 12. Other portions of the body-shaper lining 20 are separated from the dress body 11 and are not fixed, so that the body-shaper lining 20 can be selectively uncovered commencing at a bottom end of the body-shaper lining 20 so that the body-shaper lining 20 can be cleaned easily, body shaping of target body-shaping areas is facilitated, the body-shaper lining 20 can be put on by wearers easily, and the appearance of the outer dress 10 will not be compromised.

(14) The body-shaper lining 20 is of a jumpsuit structure and comprises a bottomwear portion such as a pair of pants located on a lower portion, the pants are of a shorts structure, a briefs structure or a T-back structure, and the structure of the pants is designed as required. An opening 23 is formed in a crotch of the body-shaper lining 20, so that wearers do not need to wear underpants anymore. Through the design of the crotch opening 23, wearers can relieve themselves directly without taking off the body-shaper lining 20 and are free of inconvenience caused by putting on and taking off the body-shaper lining 20 when relieving themselves. Further, an anti-bacterial and skin-friendly fabric may be disposed at the opening 23.

(15) As an example, the body-shaper lining 20 in this embodiment comprises a breast protection part 21 and a body-shaper part 22 with at least one body-shaping area. In this embodiment, the breast protection part 21 may be made of a cotton-elastane fabric and is internally provided with bra pads or is integrally provided with bras; the body-shaping area is made of an elastic fabric with lateral elasticity, such as a breathable cotton-elastane mesh fabric or cotton-elastane knitted fabric which has an elastic recovery rate of 85%-95% when laterally stretched with a constant force of 1N, and the breathable cotton-elastane mesh fabric has a body-shaping effect and is breathable. A top end of a front side of the body-shaper part 22 is sewn or bonded on the breast protection part 21 along the lower side of breasts, and a top end of the breast protection part 21 and a top end of a rear side of the body-shaper part 22 are sewn or bonded on the collar of the dress body 11. Preferably, the body-shaper lining 20 is sewn on the dress body 11 through single-stitch flat seaming or three-stitch over-seaming.

(16) Specifically, the body-shaper part 22 is formed by a front piece 221, a rear piece A 222, a rear piece B 223 and an inner piece 224 that are sewn together, wherein the rear piece A 222 and the rear piece B 223 are sewed together along a midline of the back; left and right sides of the front piece 221 are respectively sewed on the rear piece A 222 and the rear piece B 223 to form side seams, and the bottomwear portion such as the pants of a shorts structure are formed on the lower portion; and a bottom end of the breast protection part 21 is sewn at a top end of the front piece 221, and left and right sides of the breast protection part 21 are sewn on a side edge of an upper portion of the rear piece A 222 and a side edge of an upper portion of the rear piece B 223 respectively. Preferably, the front piece 221 and the inner piece 224, as well as the rear piece A 222 and the rear piece B 223 are connected through seamless sewing or seamless bonding, so that the body-shaper inside can be worn with less traces. Areas, corresponding to the hip, of the rear piece A 222 and the rear piece B 223 are formed by 3D cutting, so that the hip curve will not be pressed.

(17) The front piece 221, the rear piece A 222, the rear piece B 223 and the inner piece 224 are all made of elastic fabrics with lateral elasticity, such as breathable cotton-elastane mesh fabrics that have an elastic recovery rate of 85%-95% when laterally stretched with a constant force of 1N. A lower portion of the front piece 221, a lower portion of the rear piece A 222 and a lower portion of the rear piece B 223 are sewn together to form thigh girdle parts capable of effectively trimming the legs; and the inner piece 224 is located inside the front piece 221 and is sewn or bonded on the front piece 221 along the belly to form a double-layer belly binding part of a double-layer fabric structure, which has a better belly binding effect, can smoothen the curve, and is breathable and not sticky. In addition, the front piece 221 and the breast protection part 21 are sewn together with an elastic thread to fulfill a breast holding effect.

(18) Multiple anti-skid epoxy materials are disposed on inner sides of bottoms of the thigh girdle parts and are spaced apart from each other vertically, so that the bottoms of the thigh girdle parts are less likely to slide upwards and are prevented from being sticky and uncomfortable. Memory bones may be disposed at top ends of the rear piece A 222 and the rear piece B 223 to prevent the top ends of the rear piece A 222 and the rear piece B 223 from curling and improve the support effect on the dress body 11.

(19) The basic principle, main features and advantages of the invention are illustrated and described above. Those skilled in the art should understand that the invention will not be limited to the above embodiments, the above embodiments and the descriptions in this specification are merely used to explain the principle of the invention, different variations and improvements can be made to the invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention, and all these variations and improvements should fall within the scope of the invention claiming for protection. The protection scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
