Quotes by Warner Brother's Company

Warner Brother's Company, 20th century Models — Page 13 (1898)

“ The adoption of the medium-length waist means a garment built
on natural lines, which is very different from the extremely high-bust
corset with the accentuated long waistline and narrow hips. A corset
of this kind invariably throws bust and hips out of place.
The hips should never be compressed.
In the average figure they
should be pronounced. On the fitting of the corset depends the pretty
curve of hip toward back, which. can only be obtained by the fullness or
graduation of the hip of the corset being properly placed, which in most
moderately priced corsets is not considered. ”

“ Warner's Coraline Corset. Warner's Coraline Corset. 131⁄2-inch clasp.
Five hooks.
Sizes, 18 to 40 in.
Made of fine jean; black made of sateen throughout;
boned with Coraline in a way that prevents the corset
from losing its shape, and makes it absolutely unbreak-
able; clock-steel springs add an extra stay over the hips.
This corset has been before the public sixteen years and
has the largest sale of any one corset on the market. It
is generally recognized as the best value and has given the
best service of any dollar corset ever manufactured. ”

“ Made of fine French sateen, boned with Coraline;
boned bust; silk embroidery trims the corset at the
upper edge, which is handsomely flossed with silk. It
is particularly designed for ladies desiring a close-
fitting corset. White and black. ”

“ In presenting to the trade our Catalogue for 1899 we
extend to our patrons appreciation for past favors, and hope
that the merits of our 20th Century Models will warrant a
continuance of same.
Special attention is asked for our new models, which
include short hip, low bust and the sudden hip with the long
waistline, and French gored corsets. These styles are made
upon patterns designed to serve the figure, with the latest
ideas advanced by modistes. With 1899, familiar styles, im-
proved in many ways, make their bow. ”

“ It has been noticed since the almost universal sale of medium-length
corsets that few complaints have been entered by wearers and that
exchanges have decreased, which fact ought to be appreciated by the
retailer, who thereby is the gainer in the saving of saleswomen's time
and markdowns.
To THE SALESWOMEN: It is easy to give a woman just what she asks
for, but that is not always serving her with what is best suited to her
figure or which will produce the effect she is striving for. ”

“ It is all sateen, and the shape is
different from other $1.00 cor-
sets. This corset has little gores
in the bust and hips that permit
it to shape readily to the figure.
Gored corset are usually thought
high-priced, but we sell this for
$1,00. ”
