In sewing, a gusset is a triangular or rhomboid piece of fabric inserted into a seam to add breadth or reduce stress from tight-fitting clothing. Gussets were used at the shoulders, underarms, and hems of traditional shirts and chemises made of rectangular lengths of linen to shape the garments to the body.〔Burnham, Dorothy, ''Cut My Cote'', Royal Ontario Museum, 1973.〕 Gussets are used in manufacturing of modern tights and pantyhose to add breadth at the crotch seam. As with other synthetic underwear, these gussets are often made of moisture-wicking breathable fabrics such as cotton, to keep the genital area dry and ventilated.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url = http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/003158.htm )〕〔(US 20030196252 ) , Sara Blakely, "Two-ply body-smoothing undergarment", issued 2003-10-23〕〔Prevention Magazine Editors: ''The Doctors Book of Home Remedies, Thousands of Tips and Techniques Anyone Can Use to Heal Everyday Health Problems.'' Bantam, USA 1991, ISBN 0553291564. P. 705, P. 707〕 The phrase "don't bust a gusset" is an admonition to calm down; becoming so enraged and inflated that one busted a gusset would imply extreme rage and expansion beyond one's clothing capacity. Gussets are also used when making three-piece bags, for example in a pattern Pillows too, are often gusseted, generally an inch or two. The side panels thicken the pillow, allowing more stuffing without bulging. Gussets are also used in other areas of manufacturing, e.g. bicycle frames employ gussets to add strength and rigidity. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「gusset」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
