And what an interesting study. Not in facial types alone but in figures— A casual glance leaves the impression that, so far as figures are concerned, most women differ but slightly. Yet, on a more observant view, one notices distinct variations in the types present. Take, for instance, a group of slim, tall women. Notice how one differs from another in hip development and contour—how another, smooth and straight of hip, is of a distinctly sway back type through a sharply incurved waist at back. Another, straight lined at back and hips, is decidedly developed of bust and abdomen. One may be slender yet differ vastly from another so described. Then, how shall a corset, designed merely upon slim lines, care equally well for a slender figure, virtually hipless, but with developed abdomen and an incurving waist? Clearly these two so different figures CANNOT be equally well served by one and the same corset. As well expect three big hipped women, one heavy, one medium, one slender, to wear an identical model with success. In view of these facts, is it surprising that ordinary standardised corsetry is being rapidly superseded by true-to-type Berlei Foundation Garments garments that suit the individual need? Five Fundamental New Zealand Figure Types discovered by Berlei. A new elegance, a greater loveliness for New Zealand women is assured by Berlei True-to-type Foundation Garments.
