bustle On This Day In Oregon

"The bustle is doomed and has sunk into obscurity but a new fashion has replaced it according to fashion authorities. Ladies have taken to wearing rubber hips. The advantage gained is a smaller look to the waist.

"The artificial hip developers are inflated, and one drawback is the danger that a pin will prick one of them causing it to deflate abruptly, leaving the wearer lopsided. Still the ladies are willing to brave this risk in order to gain a slender-looking waist."
