Corsets were little more than rags. Some women wore no corsets, others were induced to desert the corset-friends of a life-time to join the absurd, disfiguring and unhealthful "slouch." But women are now wearing real corsets, and have risen en masse to demand the style and healthful comfort that the Nemo alone can give.

As a result, the sale of Nemo Corsets, especially the old, well-known and favorite models, is greater than ever. Nemo Week marks the annual high tide in the corset trade. At that time, dealers everywhere have full lines of Nemo Corsets. You can get the exact model and size you need. Therefore, NEMO WEEK is the BEST TIME to buy Nemo Corsets.
