There are certain suggestions for the

They are laid down by the London

centuates her stoutncss If she adopts
the same style.of dress as her slim sis
ter, and SO it is not the dress that must
have the first consideration, but the
wearer.
The short, stout woman should not
choose striped materials or those with
large spots or designs. These must be
left for the tall girl, who, in her turn,
must avoid the small figured materials
which will suit the short girl better.
Very often an inexpensive gown will
look far more effective than costly
one. because the wearerhas first Of all
