Paris Says Corset
Is Thing of the Past
PARIS, June 16.—The death blow
to the corset is claimed to have been
dealt by s. small groups of Paris
style creators who boast that they
dictate the fashion of the world.
They say the corset is doomed to
share the fate of the hoop skirt and
bustle.
The new silhouette. which will ap.
pear during the Grand Prix this
month. according to the stylists.
will make it absolutely impossible
to wear corsets. The latest gar-
ments are described as clinging
naturally to the form, avoiding any
unnecessary fulnese around the hips.
The style dictatore' ruling. com—
bined with world-wide propaganda
for women’s sports and the mascu-
line line in women's styles generally
are pointed to as responsible for
placing the corset on the defensive
for the 1924 season.
