Just as an illy-fitted shoe inflicts constant pain to
its wearer, just so an incorrectly chosen corset is a
continual source of discomfort. Properly selected,
there is no reason for the least unpleasantness in a
pair of stays. This is pre-eminently the case with
our own hand-made corset, the models of which are
precisely correct in form and unusually well fitting
on account of whalebone stays, which conform the
garment to the physique without bending the shape
out of the corset or crushing the figure. Each pair
is hand-made. The selection of stvles is comrlete
enough, to warrant custom-corset satisfaction to the purchaser.
