¶ Styles 191 and 192 are intended for full, corpulent, irregular figures with prominent abdomen, such as figures 6 and 8 in the instructions "How to Select the Proper Corset" (see pages 20 to 24.), which are unable to wear a front-laced corset, yet require compression and support. Will permanently reduce protruding abdomen. A bust confiner should be worn with style 192 as the bust of the corset is too low to control the usual bust development of the figure to which it is adapted. Made only in Sterling or Coutil, suitably trimmed. Should be worn with four hose supporters.

¶ Medium and low bust; good length groin. Boned with the guaranteed Spirella. Draw-tape in bust. Groin lacing on each side, from a point a little below the waist to the bottom of the garment, permits adjustment and thus gradually reduces abdominal prominence. Heavy spoon clasp grips in under and aids in supporting excessive corpulency. Style 192 is one inch shorter above the waist than style 191, which is illustrated. In style 191 the bust measure is 13 inches greater than the waist measure; in style 192 only 12 inches greater. In both styles the hip measure is 13 niches greater than the waist measure.

¶ Regular sizes 22 to 30. Sizes smaller than 22 are not made. If sizes larger than 30 are desired, a small extra charge will be made.
