Which one was Kim Novak?


I read in the trivia that Kim Novak had an uncredited bit part as one of the models in Madam Firelli's fashion show towards the end. (at least I'm assuming that's the part they meant, all it says is "model on the stairs") Which model was she? I watched this on demand and it was a pretty poor copy so it was hard to see. I was thinking the model for "Autumn" but I wasn't sure. Anyone know?

It's on TCM right now. She's on during the novelty song about canapes about and hour and 15 minutes into the film. At one point she's the singer on the left of the male singer, wearing a pink dress.

I found a still of her in the Poor Andre number -- she's the one on the left from our POV:

Yes, she's in the Poor Andre number, in fact there are two very good shots of her where there is basically only her and waiter and another girl or two as they walk down the stairs.

One weird thing is there is a rumor that Marilyn Monroe has a cameo in the movie but this is highly improbable given Fox would have never let her appear in a RKO film unauthorized. I wonder if someone confused Kim with Marilyn?
