Suits Show Slender Lines With Hip Detailing There is no evidence that suits will turn about and be masculine. If anything, the silhouette in suits is even more slender and feminine than for many seasons. Descending waistlines are played up in suits even more than in dresses, apparently because their simplicity can show such details to perfection. Backs on the suits are gored and tapered. They nip neatly at the natural waistline and then go down to a cuff at the hips. Another feature is the use of straps beginning at the side seams that criss cross direct ly in the middle back to be attached to two buttons.
