The Y & N Patent Diagonal Seam Corset, 1883. 'NEWEST INVENTION. EXQUISITE MODEL. UNIQUE DESIGN. PERFECT COMFORT. GUARANTEED WEAR. UNIVERSAL ADAPTABILITY. FREE FROM COMPLICATION - ADVANTAGES OVER ANY OTHER MAKE OF CORSET. THIS CORSET has been Invented to supply what was really wanted - viz., a Corset warranted not to split in the seams, at the same time combining every excellence required in a lady's Corset. All the parts are arranged diagonally instead of the ordinary upright pieces, the seams being thus relieved of a great portion of the strain. The material is also cut on the bias, and yields to the figure without splitting. The bones are arranged to give support to the figure where required (avoiding undue pressure), and by crossing the diagonal seams prevent the utmost strain in wear tearing the fabric. The spécialité of construction gives the freest adaptability to the figure, making it unrivalled in its graceful proportions, and meeting the requirements of the latest fashions without any complications of belts, straps, &c. To prevent imitation, every Corset is stamped. To be had of all high-class Drapers and Ladies' Outfitters; through the principal Whole-sale Houses. This Corset has gained the Gold Medal at the New Zealand Exhibition'. From "Illustrated London News", 1883.
