THE NEW UNDIES
The latest undies have all been designed with the definite idea of observing the slim princess silhouette without an unsightly bulge or wrinkle anywhere. Perfectly fitting foundation garments, whether the all-in-one brassiere corset, or the brassiere and belt combination, are absolutely necessary. If the latter are preferred, the brassiere should be carefully fitted as well as the belt, so that the line is preserved. All the garments in every make are built to keep the hips as slinky as possible, and to give the uplift line to the bust which is a feature of the new dresses. Petticoats are be ing made on the cross with V-shaped hip sections and pin-tucks, seams art, hemstitched and absolutely flat. Needlerun lace is inset into the petticoat and chemises. Knickers have hip yokes, and are generally cut with the open French legs. As for nightgowns, they show a tendency to follow the evening fashions, with slim skirts and details on the tiny cape sleeves, which are sometimes of lace, sometimes frilled and tucked, sometimes embroidered.
