Could This Be You?
When a new and attractive fashion, such as the ballerina suit, becomes popular, there.is a unversal rush to wear it with very little thought of whether the figure can "take it." The result is often unflattering, even though good corseting may have taken an inch or two off the waistline. "No woman with a waistline bove 25 inches should wear a fashion that relies for its charm on a tiny waist, accentuated by a full skirt," comments a leading English designer. An older - woman with a slim figure will look far better in such a style than someone younger with a plumper figure, says a writer in the Daily Mail. Select only those new styles that are most flattering to your figure even though it means passing by the most beautiful dress you have ever seen.
