Kennedy and son H. L. Higgins and son November 4, 1047 Elizabeth Wants No "Copy-Cats" London, Nov. 5- (UP) -Princess Elizabeth, still fearful that someone might copy her wedding gown, has vetoed a suggestion by her designer that duplicates be exhibited in big department stores i in the United States. The princess wants to keep the secret of her wedding gown until she steps out of the coach at Westminister Abbey on 20.

The crowd will gasp at the display. That seemed assured today. Several newspaper folk, invited to a preview. of sketches section of the town, uttered professional ohs ahs, delighting the designer, Norman Hartell, who has been living in a movie-like atmosphere of espionage since he submitted the winning design. Those who get through the security precautions to the ornate scanned by a policeman and a doorman, and suddenly asked for dresses to be checked against the private list sworn to secrecy to what they saw.

Some time ago this correspondent wrote guesses that gown would cost $5,000. Buckingham Palace advised severely that the figure was far too high. An official source even suggested that $500 would be closer to the real price. If Hartnell is selling that dress $500, it seems that one could purchase half a dozen and make a fortune in the United States. Hartnell, (a red carnation in his lapel), said he was inspired by Botticelli's famous painting "Primavera." It's not permitted to say how close he came to duplicating the material in the painting, but it's worth looking at if you're that interested.

Hartnell said Boticelli painted lovely figures, and "Princess Elizabeth has a lovely figure." He said he got the idea for the bridesmaid's dresses from paintings of Victoria ladies in Buckingham Palace. Had the princess agreed, copies would have been sent to Nieman Marcus of Dallas and Leon Mandel of Chicago, both of which would have replaced the replicas in museums after an exhibition period.
