Lingerie Book Sew FLapper Underwear Making Sewing 1925
"The right foundations for one's outer garments play such a vital
part in their success that undergarments have acquired a place
of importance in the wardrobe. The sort of underwear to select
for various types of costumes and for different figures is a matter
requiring as much careful thought as the costumes themselves.
Then there are the many varieties of sleeping garments, bathrobes,
kimonos, and negligees, into the selecting and making of which a
woman has an opportunity to express much of her feminine charm."
