It is probably because Warner's is such an "all round" corset. It is fashionable in its lines, giving any type of figure those firm trim contours that are just right under tailored clothes; it is the soul of comfort, women tell us and we think that is because it is so well made and the boning is so skillfully placed. It is certainly the most economical corset you can buy, because it is guaranteed not to rust, break or tear.
