day or two. At the moment I'm
going to tell you how you can make
yourself shorter or taller. not actu-
ally but by creating an optical
illusion.
The eye Is so easy TO deceive II one
knows the trick that any woman
actually can appear 10 be an inch
da1rter or taller than she Is by the
10 per selection OF clothes and the
Placement Of belts. ornaments and
other stricSy feminine paraphernalia.
Take the very tall girl who wants
10 appear shorter. Usually very tall
girls feel their height so much that
they dress simply. following the
straight up and down silhouette.
which Is the last thing IN the world
they should do
BY having ruffles or tucks or bands
set on the frock 50 that the trimming
goes around IL instead az up and
Sdown with IL one cuts across the
Figure and shortens IL as far as the
eyes OF others are concerned. a band
set on the bottom OF skirts. even
though IL is OF the same material.
also breaks the straight up and down
line OF the figure. thus shortening II.
Belts. g1rdles and sets OF pieating or
drapes. cleverly placed at the hip
p shorten the figure.
Hose Of a slightly lighter shade
than the frock and medium height
heels on the slippers help TO take off.
as far as the y is concerned. that
extra inch.
The short girl who wishes 70 ap-
pear taller than she IS does Just
exactly the opposite TO create the
Illusion OF height.
All trimmings on her frocks should
run up and down with the dress in
stead OF around IL. Hemlines should
be longer. half an inch makes a
tremendous difference. flounces or
pleated bands that have their pointed
edges turned down suggest addi-
fional height.
Hose should match rs perfectly as
possible the shade OF the frock TO
prevent a break between the hemline
Of the skirt and the legs. High
heeled slippers-but OF course you al
know thatl Small. tight fitting hats
that are innocent OF brims-all help
