Spring Styles in Corsets
1916 Models from Warner
A Count first of all Spring things, of course. Then the foundation for the suits and
frocks is right. A good cor: t, the correct model for one's figure, and well fitted, gives
one confidence, grace of carriage and freedom of motion. lt is without doubt the most
necessary article of woman’s apparel. Fortunately the day of eccentric styles in corsets has
passed and every woman may have the Corset that especially conforms to her own figure.
. The Corset Section at Reid's has connected with it three fitting rooms. each of ample
sue, fitted \tith mirrors, and all conveniences for Corset fitting. Experienced Corscticrcs
are present, and such alterations as are necessary are made quicklv and satisfactorily on
the Read premises. '
Spring models in Corset, the Rt-dfcru and Rustproof, are now in slot‘k.
Redferns from , $3.00 up
