The Tall Girl's Problems
Are Considered
It is time we paid some at- tention to the tall woman who stands five feet six inches or over. We should teach her how to glorify her height and to carry it proudly."
"Curious as it may seem, the face of the taller woman is small in proportion to the rest of her body. Her features must there- fore be emphasised with proper make-up. Indifferent pastels Lade out completely on the statuesque woman, she should dramatise her beauty with vibrant dashing colours. Her mouth should be well-shaped, proud and generous to match her dignity. As she must avoid acting coyly her hair should be dressed simply with a minimum of ringlets and curls."
Regarding Her Postufe
In the opinion. of this beauty expert tall women are afraid to stretch. and walk regally, In at- tempting to lessen their height they acquire what she calls "jackknie" posture which makes them look angular and awkward. A tall woman must be proud of her height and stand with feet parallel shoulders in normal position and relaxed, abdomen flat, chest lifted and the spine so straight that it resembles a
- column supporting a pretty head! Her movements should be dignified too with few flowery gestures of lunges,
It seems as if tall girls fre- quently do not know what to do with their hands when they are at a party or waiting in: a public place. When such moments of self-consciousness descend it is suggested that the girl hold one hand gracefully in the other tand she will look, poised, and relaxed whether she ds standing or sitting. When she moves her hands and arms she should form arcs rather
• than angles for that Jends grace to her movements.
How To Dress
It seems that clothes no longer will be a problem for one designer is devoting all her creating ability to making the tall girl look like a goddess instead of a- self-conscious: frump. "Through excellent cutting and play of pleats, pleasing proportions will be given to the tall girl's chest, hips and waistline and grace' to . long arms and necks.
