| TEXT | No article of female attire is so essential to elegance and beauty of figure as a well-made and neatly-fitting corset. In these productions everything depends on the skill of the makers, and it is only houses of long experience and ability that manufacture corsets combining all the requirements which a lady expects in this indispensable article of dress. A prominent house engaged in this business is that of Mr. H. P. Olmstead, No. 6 East 14th Street, which was established in 1860, and since its inception at that date has obtained a liberal patronage, owing to the unsurpassed quality of his various manufactures. Mr. Olmstead likewise makes and deals extensively in bustles, hoopskirts, etc., which are manufactured from the finest materials, finished in the best manner, and are in every respect equal to similar goods, either domestic or imported, while the prices are not higher than those for ordinary quality charged by contemporary houses. A specialty is made of abdominal and skirt-supporting corsets, which are carefully made in the neatest and most satisfactory manner. Mme. Reed's patent skirt-supporting corsets, which are manufactured exclusively by this firm, are specially made as a. complete support for the spine, and are certain to prevent or cure round shoulders and spinal diseases in almost every form. Crinolines and corsets of all kinds are duplicated and made to order at the shortest notice, and are cleaned and made equal to new at moderate prices. The goods of this house are everywhere recognized for their uniform high standard of excellence, and their superiority over all others in the market is abundantly shown by their increasing popularity. |
