Stylish Stout Reduso Corsets
An Innovation for
Overdeveloped Figures
'nil
rStjfoh Stout"
QTYLISH Stout Reduso corsets are dis-
tinctive creations for stout women.
They will positively slenderize ungainly
lines to a fashionable silhouette, and in
sure the appearance of less weight. A
Stylish Stout Reduso will make any
stout woman look ten years younger.
Positively the most comfortable corset
ever projected for over-developed fig
ures. Scientific construction eliminates
compression, no belts, no straps, no armor-like
multiplicity of heavy boning.
Stylish Stout Reduso corsets are guar
anteed to fit nine out of ten stout fig
ures at the first "try-on." They have
the individuality of "made-to-order" gar
ments, avoiding the stiffness, the weight
and endless fittings. A Stylish Stout
Reduso corset purchased over the coun
ter will give supreme satisfaction at the
first wearing. Prices, $6.50 to $10.00.
