Leading CORSETS Some of which are sold exclusively here in Indianapolis—and a CORSET FITTING SERVICE recognized as an indispensable aid to dressing well among fashionable women. A corset should not only be suitable to the type of figure wearing it, but it should be precisely and accurately adjusted. A corset worn a trifle too high or too low, or a little to one side, will so mar the lines of your figure that your smartest gowns will lose half their effect! Our corsettieres carefully study each type of figure put in their care, conscientiously studying the type of corset that will bring out and accentuate ita good points and conceal the poor ones. Their service does not end here—they proceed to adjust the corset correctly to enable the wearer to derive the greatest good from it healthfully and fashionably. This service is entirely gratis. —Madame Irene corsets. —Madame Binner corsets —Modart front lace —Nulife corsets corsets —Sylvia and Gora corsets are sold exclusively in Indianapolis at The Wm. H.
