Out of this season's bewildering
dictates of Fashion, one thought stands
clear --you must appear natural.
Uncorseted? No! Emphatically
No! Certainly frocks and suits never
more definitely demanded the founda-
tion of a clever corset. When Paris
says you should look "zi.ncorseted,"
Paris means you should wear a cor-
set so deftly designed to be a part of
yourself that it merely accents the
natural beauty of your figure and
the most critical observer will not be
able to trace your charm to its subtle
support,
