Summary

Spirella Catalogue (1933) — Page 76 (1933)

You will note that the range of hip sizes for these series does not include sizes 6 and 8 inches larger than the waist.
If your client's hip measurement calls for one of these sizes select the next smaller hip size. The extra inch can be taken care of by spacing each of the three lacings just a bit wider.
