THE NOVENT PETTICOAT In practically all gswns this season, the waist line is long, slender and as unbroken by sharp trimming effects as possible. The fit is snug over the hips—the approved effect—and the folds fall generous and undulating about the feet. Ordinary petticoats, bulging and bulky, are sure to mar the attractiveness of prevailing styles. The “Novent” alone has the right contour. Without gathers, vent, buttons or hooks and eyes. Glove-fitting jersey top. Elastic waistband. Produces new bell-shaped figure. Encircled at the base by a deep flaring flounce, in a profusion of new styles. Hindered and hampered by ordinary petticoats—seamed, gored and gath ered no woman can walk with the easy, buoyant, rhythmic movement im parted by the “Novent.” This is the petticoat that molds hips and waists into the slender proportions and the graceful curves demanded by reigning modes. Many of New York s fashionable dressmakers will fit over no other petticoat. Glove-fitting jersey top. Elastic waistband. Produces new bell-shaped figure. • With Lustrous Satine Flounce 1.50, 2.00 and 2.50. With Black Taffeta Silk at 5.00. CHAMBERLIN-JOHNSON-DuBOSE COMPANY’.
