that.
Designers help to promote the
long thigh effect by creating close
ly fitted bodices with lines that
give the appearance of a small
waist. by making the robe ex-
tremely lorg, continuing the snug
fit over the hips, then letting tHe
skirt live its own life. No cross
ines other than the tiniest belt.
Well fitted undies are essential
specially if the fabric of the gown
is thin. There shouldn't be rip
pie in the under fabrics. Many
women of fashion have slips and
panties made to order, SO snug
they're just able to pack thel11-
selves into them. That, of course,
is the height of something or other.
