be, “are a millinery secret.” When
interviewed about the goWn the
black-haired designer said “It’s
a secret, a very great secret. We
couldn’t think of letting you see
it.” She did admit, however, that
the veil alone cost over 1,000,000
‘francs, or $2,800.
The wedding gown is being
stitched by hand, and according
-to the Madame it would take one
girl over two years to make the
dress,', if she were working on it
alone. Four seamstresses are sew
ing on the dress and it should be
completed in about two weeks.
In addition to the gown the
future queen had Madame Le
Comte furnish her with dresses,
shoes and accessories. When
asked how many .pairs of shoes
Narriman Sadek chose •to wear
with her thirty dresses, Madame
Le Comte looked surprised.
“Why, thirty, of course!”
