 clothes, prettier clothes—clothes that suit your individuality. WHAT IS YOUR TYPE?

Perhaps it’s an impertinent question but we are talking just friend to friend and I am going to ask, “How old are you?”

Or maybe I had better say, “How young are you?” In selecting clothes, you know, age is just as important to the slip of a girl as it is to the woman who is growing older. Sixty’s dress can be downright cruel to sweet sixteen. On the other hand, the too-young dress is the very thing that will add ten years to a woman’s looks.

Decide your type and see which styles are best suited to you.


 * Are you a slim young girl?
 * Are you a stout young girl?
 * Are you a young woman of medium build?
 * Are you a stout younger woman?
 * Are you short?
 * Are you tall?
 * Are you thin?
 * Are you an older woman?
