What Shall I Wear?

Underpinnings

ALL authorities agree on one fact when a dress (or gown or suit, etc.) is fitted On a designer's model before being presented to the press and store buyers, the model always BUT ALWAYS, wears under garments in keeping with the style of the costume. It is this fitting which determines the shape in which the cos- tume reaches you, the consumer. Bearing this in mind, you can now see why a fashion can perform for you at its best, only when it is worn over the appropri ate undergarments.

_16_Questions about your Foundati on Wardrobe.

1 - Have I the right bras to accompany all my neck- line styles? Scoop, bateau, cowl, square, VEE plunge, strapless, low-back, halter, etc.?

Do I need a long-line bra? If you wear a size C cup and measure more than 26" at the waistline, when buying a strapless bra, you will look decidedly better in a long-line bra.

Have I the right style bra for wear with Sweaters and fabrics that cling? You want to look for a cup that gives a gently rounded, high bosom. Too low a cut will not give you the smooth line you want. And a pointed cup shape will make you look years behind, in the fashion picture. Be sure to wear a full slip under all clinging fabrics.

What colors do I need in my bra, girdle and slip wardrobe? Definitely white first, then duplication in black.
