CRUSH GRIZZLIES MATCH SUIT
New Adjournment Has Many Advantages
Over the Ordinary Belt, Which
1t Supplants.

Crush girdles fully eight inches
broad, showing between the open
fronts of tailored Jackets, are of satin
matching the shade of the suit, en-
broidered with floss or soutache of the
same color as the waistcoat, collar and
cuffs or of the trimming on the hat.
The embroidery, making an inch wide
bordering defining both edges of the
belt and appearing as tiny motifs or
medallions scattered over the rest
Of the material, draws attention to the
waist line while Che excessive width
of belt helps to emphasize the wide
WASTED, narrow-hipped effect of the
figure. 1t is far more chic looking
than is the ordinary belt, for it indi-
Gates the waist line without actually
defining it, and it is infinitely more
becoming to stout woman than is
the raised skirt-belt. Moreover, it is
one of those minor details which mark
the street costume as unusual, and to
look different" which, being interpre-
ted, means mot like the mob" is the
aim Of every fashionable woman.
