THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, The First Question of Importance In the New Spring Gown— - The Corset Beneath It For upon the selection of the corset depends the success of the costume. One thing has been settled—the back must be smooth—hence this vogue, for the newest in corsetry— The Laceless Corset New Woodthrop and Lily of France Models —which particularly bring out the beautiful flat lines demanded by the Spring mode. We are showing now many handsome models in these laceless corsets—they are fashioned of handsome broches and brocades, combined with heavy hand-loomed elastic—forming a firm sheath-like garment that gives beautiful lines, perfect support—and requires no adjusting—no lacing. Lovely shades of orchid and pink—one charming model of which we sketch— developed of a beautiful satin-flowered brocade and sections of heavy hand- loomed elastic, in pink, $15.
