Sheila and Libby have a brief conversation about skin treatments. We only hear a 4 or 5 lines, then there a cut away to different characters in the scene, but we can still hear them in the background talking until Lloyd Miller makes an announcement.

Also, a couple of women talk to Agnes (she isn't named in the credits, she might be customer designer). In particular Sheila asks about a dress she expects to be wearing for the show, but Agnes says she couldn't let the seams out. I don't think she counts as named, as she is a minor character, not named in the credits.
