Corset Must Be Right
It's the first consideration in planning
new garments. If the base is not right, the
gown cannot fit.
Each season brings something new in figure outline, and
necessarily there must be a Corset that will create the
new figure. The new Corset models for Spring and Sum
mer are low above the waist and very long below.
This new-style feature is most
strongly emphasized in the
Warner Enst - Proof Corsets.
They have the latest Warner invention, the double
skirt, which means that the Corset below the waist is
double and will stand the hardest strain. Positively can
not tear. The CJprset fabno is especially woven two
thicknesses truly lighter than one. Boned, too, with the
guaranteed flexible rust-proof boning.
Warner Model 667, as illustrated, $1.50. Other War
ner Corsets up to $4.00.
