Times Special NEW YORK, July 12. — Fall styles are getting a firm “backing” this year from New York designers, many of whom are devoting just as much attention to a costume’s northern exposure as to its facade. The pronounced .trend soward back interest in fashions was given additional impetus today as the New York Dress Institute's national press week swung into its third day, following yesterday's showings of styles by Ben Reig, Adele Simpson, Ren-Eta, Samuel Kass and Traina-Norell. In three collections seen this morning by the 65 fashion writers here from throughout the United States, back interest is given more than a passing nod. » = » PAULINE TRIGERE makes it one of the principal features of her collection. In Anthony Blotta's fall-line, interest is focused at the back by soft pleats in coats or little, stiffened fantail peplums on doublet style tops of suits and jacket dresses, ~ Joseph Halpert, too, uses fantail flares. on several of his dresses, while others have center back pleats or back panels flanked by pleats. » » ” MR. BLOTTA, whose forte is combining feminine ‘allure with superb man-tailoring, has come up

with several ideas derived from the costumes worn by Henry VIII, Napoleon and Anthony Eden. Inspired by Mr. Eden’s impeccable tailoring is Blotta's diplomat's suit silhouette, with a coat like the English cutaway, sometimes edged with braid and “authentic” even to the men's striped sleeve lining. A series of unusual suits and jacket dresses in wool and crepe adapts the slashed doublet of Henry VIII with its short squared peplum and fantail back. These combine tops of such colors as citron yellow or cameo pink with skirts of inky blue purple or black tulip. A Blotta coat, stemming from Napoleon's greatcoat, is of ginger wool in seven-eighths length, with deep rolled and pointed collar and sleeves triple-banded with black sequin embroidery combining the Napoleonic motifs of “N,” crown and bee. The little emperor's influence appears many times again in close - fitting, triple-breasted suits. The Chinese motif which is a Blotta favorite is represented by a black broadcloth mandarin coat with deep armholes, slashed sides and an all-over design formed by mirror-backed gilt buttons. The tunic line, prevalent this season, is extra-long in its Blotta version, reaching below the hipbone and sometimes accented with matching or contrasting fabric bands or folds.

Some of his tailored suits are of thin tropical worsteds for wear beneath fur coats. Narrow skirts have above-the-knee slits. 2 s = JOSEPH HALPERT'S LOVE of fabrics finds full play in his fall collection. He molds -and drapes them to ease the rigid lines of the slim silhouette, using narrow vertical folds on shoulders, side-tied bow necks, side-draped hipline treatments, back pleats or tiny slashes at the center fronts of hems.

His long dinner dresses mold the body, are split to the knee and have soft, long scarves. Such Edwardian trimming as sik braid, fringes, tiny braid balls, tassels and wool crochet ruching or lace run through his Goljection. Both middy and peplum trends are represented, the latter including back-dipping types ‘and those starting over each hip rather than being gathered all around. Diagonal bodice closings are featured by the designer. One model of collarless gold wool has three fabric buttons at its slanting fastening. Necklines range from the severely clerical to face-framing, petal-curved “picture” collars. Corsages of sequins and tiny colored beads decorate the shoulders ‘of black afternoon crepes with pushup sleeves,

Good Grooming Means Cleanliness

Good grooming means clothes, underneath as well as on top. Nightly washing of stockings and underwear is a good old American custom that keeps thousands of girls the best-dressed women in the world, even during a war. It also makes clothes last longer, and stay . prettier. There's a word for that—conservation. Practice conservation when it comes to soap, foo. If washing out a few pieces at night, don't dump in enough soap to do the whole family laundry. “Just right” is the rule for soap use. A two-inch

{suds in tub, washer or bowl will do

the trick.

Wash pods thoroughly before shelling peas or lima beans, and you'll run less risk of contamination with bacteria-carrying soil.

evening dresses. The back interest she stresses appears in some broad-shouldered, untrimmed duvetyne coats and in dresses where groups of inverted tucks at the waist release full. ness. Jackets of her sleek town suits are a bit longer than those of recent seasons and sometimes dip slightly at the back, as do the

belts of her woolen frocks. Softly tailored, they come in striped and diagonal woolens {n neutral colors. The ensemble idea is carried out in soft coats shown with woolen dresses of related design and harmonizing color. The Trigere designs for evening wear, in both long and short lengths, have the covered-up look in front but have deep and narrow V-shaped back decolletages. » ” » SHOWN LAST NIGHT was the Traina-Norell collection, designed by Hoosier-born Norman Norell, considered by many of the stylewise as exerting one of the most potent influences in the fashion field. Continuing the Chanel-inspired chemise dress he introduced in his spring line, Norell adds the “lampshade” silhouette of 1913— a stiffened tunic line flaring out above a tubular skirt. One of these is of monkey fur mounted on horsehair. Among his chemise dresses he continues the sweater-topped version of spring. His coats include the slim wraparound with dolman sleeves. While he shows long evening gowns, he also devotes attention to short ones in vivid colors and trimmed lavishly with spangles. Short coats shown with the long evening gowns are made of wide horizontal bands of two or more bright colors.
