Today—Sentinel Reporter
By MARJORIE CANDE‘E.
Thirty-five years ago Norwalk wom-
en were different from what they are
now. Thirty-five years ago Norwalk
women were what was celled the
"hourglass" corset. It gave them
wide hips and a wasp-like waist.
which were considered very beanltl-
ful. Norwaik womn who knew the
styles of thirty-five years ago say
that they are glad the styles are
different today.
Thirey-five years ago was neither
an age of freedom nor of frankness.
The ladies were supposed to appear
pale and languid. to "never eat a
mouthful and never sleep a wink."
However, as soon as the company
had gone. they would take off their
"old Ironsldes" and rush out to the
kitchen pantry and there enjoy a
good meal.
At the R. and C.
At the R. and G. Corset Factory
on Ann Street. South “‘orwalk. one
may see about fifty of the old hour-
glass iron forms which were heated
red-hot. and the corsets were then
shaped on them. The maximum
waist size on those forms was 18: to-
day, a small waist measure is 24 or
26.
One may also see at the R. and G,
factory some pictures of models
wearing the old hourglass corsets.
And. oh. how modest they wero:
They either had masks to cover their
faces. stood with their backs to th-
camera. or faced the camera but
pulled their long. luxuriant hair down
over their faces. “’hat would th
girls of today with their bobbed hai.
do in such a case?
Although many women and girl.
nowadays do not wear either corsets
or girdles. the R. and G. factory i.
kept continuously busy supplylnp
large orders. Just recently they hav-
been making girdles and onecpiec
corsets. but the demand for the:
does not in any way equal the d-
mand for corsets. because corsets or
now made with the purpose of gix
ing health and comfort to womb
as well as style. And so. well-dress.r
women will always wear them. in
cause thny are fashioned so seneihl
The making of a corset is an i:
teresting process. First. one goes i
the cutting department. where yard
and yards of pink and white brorad
coutil. or cotton fabric are out by '
machine with n sharp blade in:
wedge-shaped pieces. Each piece. ha
notches cut in it. just like in a drec
pattern. and in the stitching room
the. pieces are matched together am.
seamed.
Another machine in the euttlnn
room cuts material into strips. rant
ing from half an inch to three inch
wide. Another folds down the ed:
of these strips and makes them in'
nest rolls. These are used for bind
ing. boning and stripping. i
In the stitching department. enc'
girl has a different operation to per
form. One sews the pieces together
another stitches the steel fronts in?
the corsets. another binds the be:
tom of the corset. another stitche.
the hose supporters. etc.
A little boy sits a: a machine and
pours cupl'ulls of small steel eyelet
into the machine, adjusts a strip ..
goods. presses a lever, and beholl‘
the eyelets for the lacing of th
corsets are fastened into the. goods.
\Vhy do some corsets cost only fun
dollars and others forty dollars? 1'.

The bone in an mpemive corset is
not paper covered. it is what is called
"‘bonny bone." and is very flexible
and has a metal covering. The rib-
bon is knotted by hand. the lace and
trimmings are put on by hand.
