Times Special NEW YORK, July 11 — Fashion writers from all over the country converged upon Manhattan yesterday to get the insde dope on fall styles. They came at the invitation of the New York Dréss Institute which is staging, for the third time, its semi-annual national press week. The event is sponsored by the institute to promote interest in New York
“fashions and their creators.
When the week of style shows ends Friday afternoon, the newspaper gals will have had the cream of the New York fashion crop trotted out for their edification. The work of 31 first string designers is being shown, plus a cross section of dress models in the medium and lower price ranges, Yesterday's opening barrage of styles by three houses Nettie Rosenstein, Foxbrownie and Spectator Sports—was followed up this morning by parades of the Ben Reig, Mary Lee and Ren-Eta collections. ‘The Samuel Kass and Traina-Norell shows were scheduléd for this afternoon and evening. " Coming up during the remainder of the week will be shows by Anthony Blotta, Joseph Halpert, Trigere, Maurice Rentner, Hattie Carnegie, Clarepotter, Pattullo, Hansen Bang, Ann Sadowsky, Townley, Capri, Herbert Sondheim ? and Anna Miller, 2 n 2 FIRST GLIMPSE OF THE fall pretties was provided yesterday by Bruno, designer for the Spectator Sports firm. Plugging for the tall, statuesque beauty, Bruno makes a series of costumes’unified in silhouette and color theme. Heather-toned, invisible-checked tweed suits, featuring softened waistlines in longer jackets, are worn with draped jersey turbans to match jersey blouses. Suits in zinnia colors have a new U-line front, sometimes shallow, sometimes waist deep, outlined by a tuck or flange of the . fabric. Shoulder width is pointed up by decoration poised at collarbone or shoulder tip, rather than by padding. In daytime frocks, tucks sweep up to meet shoulder bows while back interest appears in skirt gores and honest-to-gosh bustles. Satin, fine beaded patterns and sequins gleam on Bruno's evening costumes, including wool and satin cock-

fabric is swept to the back. One strapless, wide-striped
satin, is boned at the waist. td 8 s A RENAISSANCE THEME runs through Brownie's collection for Foxbrownie: embroidery and worn above narrow dark skirts for dinner or cocktails; little “pourpoint” or doublet aprons of black velvet or faille on black crepe daytime frocks; slashed or paneled flares below the waists of suit jackets, and doublet collars made of fabric loops set close around the throat, Both day and evening dresses come with long, pointed “basquine” bodices and full skirt backs below a trio of small fabric ruffles, Bright, bright wool suits—emerald, “tickle pink” and purple—have picturesque revers. Some extend in shoulder-wide points; some are conch or shellshaped; some are ruffie edged. Two-color combinations are developed in both suits and day dresses, as purple with emerald, pink with black. Brownie's evening dresses follow the “cover up” theme with long, close sleeves, adding elegance with glitter boleros. One brief bolero shown with a black crepe is of white felt. White felt appears again as an apron (with multi-color sequins and bead fringe) for a short-sleeved black crepe. - n u ” NETTIE ROSENSTEIN, too, finds manipulation of revers a neat way to add individuality to jackets, She not only cuts them in unusual shapes but curves and folds them in infinite variety. Characteristic Rosenstein drapery frequently centers attention on a low hipline in her models. Another of her tricks to vary the silhouette is to use flaring tunic jackets
or dress tops with slim skirts. An offshoot of the tunic line is the diagonal closing she uses for many jackets, dresses and coats. While she still likes lots of black and many browns, Rosenstein is using such vivid shades as rust, terra cotta, American Beauty, Royal blue and fuchsia—particularly in satin evening gowns and in fine wool jerseys for gala wear. Scarfs twisted around the arms form “sleeves” for some of her dramatic evening dresses while short dinner dresses are low-necked, cap-sieeved and glitter trimmed.

EDWARDIAN ERA’ — with its capes, poufs, bustles and bows, its low-pladed skirt drapery and cascades, its extravagant embroidery—is echoed in" Ben Reig’s collection. The lines of his suits and dresses follow, and emphasize, the bosom, waist and underpinnings. . x : Suits, with medium length jackets, have narrow skirts with center tucks from waist to hem. Small checks combining two bright colors share honors with muted solid color wool suits. Added to many of these are quaint capes, from elbow to fingertip length, usually fur-lined. Reig repeats his small flaps on suit pockets and uses antique metal buttons at jacket closings. Slim afternoon crepes have flanges of fabric jutting past the shoulder or hip. Hemlines receive attention, too, aS in a one-piece wool with cartridge pleated hem. ’ Wool is treated like silk in theater and restaurant costumes, glamorized with embroidery, paillettes or satin trims. Long evening dresses range from siren-slim black crepes, side-wrapped and slit high from the hem, to bouffant taffetas. EJ . f 4 LIFTING A PAGE from “Arabian Nights,” Adele Simpson's designs for Mary Lee are in vivid Oriental colors for both day and evening. Outstanding for daytime wear are her minaret suits, their tunic lines tapering from broad shoulders to fitted waists, then flaring over the hips to contrast with slim skirts,
Miss Simpson's evening models, grouped under the .
title of “Scheherezade,” feature swag drapery—generous folds of fabric looped at the center front of a skirt or caught up to the waistline and released in side-swept sash ends. “ » » THE FACT THAT sumptuous fabric textures are a casualty of war served as a challenge in the designing of the Ren-Eta line. Taking their place are all-over bead and sequin embroideries. In designer Eta's afternoon and dinner styles, whole sections such as sleeves, yokes or boleros are covered with embroideries incorporating fine beads or tiny pearls. Asymmetric lines are played up in diagonial peplums or slanting boleros, while low waistlines result from set-in sections wrapping about the hips. Eta, too, offers long-sleeved dinner and evening dresses to meet the “cover up” idea, but decollete models are not forgotten, either,
