The secret of clothes smartness is your corset—but it can’t be bought over the counter—it must be fitted . . . And at Smiths there is no charge for this service.

YOU MUST BE PERSONALLY FITTED because.— No two figures are just alike, any more than two faces ever are. Your “shape” is as individual as your character, and needs an “Individual” fitting. Youi' Corset is made with SCIENTIFIC accuracy, and must be fitted the same way. Only a TRAINED EXPERT can give you this assistance. Whether you’re too plump or too thin, she knows exactly which Berlei will re-proportion you. If your figure’s already good, she knows which Berlei will KEEP it lovely for you. You can’t be fitted by mail. You can’t buy a corset over the counter. You can’t buy a corset just because it looks serviceable. You can’t buy a corset like Mrs So-and-So’s just because you liked the look of it. You can’t buy a corset because it “Looked nice in the window.” You can do all these things, of course, but you’ll be buying something to wrap around you and keep your stockings up; you won’t be buying a PROPERLY-FITTING, BEAUTIFYING AND COMFORTABLE CORSET.
