I really value your blog. I did copy a reference to this posting on the site Wearing History. I'm not sure what the protocols are concerning blog referencing and I hope I haven't posted out of turn. If I have please message me. This is a really interesting post. I'd love to see the Symington Side Lacer!

Were the above measurements Fay Lanphier's? If they were supposed to represent the ideal American woman of the 1920s, most of them would find it out of reach. A 5-foot-6 woman in the '20s was considered statuesque, the equivalent of a 5-foot-10 woman in the 1960s or a six-footer today.

The silhouette of women in the twenties is clearly insubstantial, feminine curves fortunately won the day.
