5.6M for a dress?! A fucking dress?! In other news, that Debbie Reynolds wan was no fool it seems.
Los Angeles (CNN) – Marilyn Monroe’s white “subway” dress sold for more than $5.6 million in a Beverly Hills, California auction Saturday night in which bidders paid another $2.7 million for three other Monroe movie outfits.
It was the first in a series of auctions to sell the massive Hollywood history collection that singer, dancer and actress Debbie Reynolds accumulated over the past 50 years.
Collector Keya Morgan said Saturday’s bids were “totally crazy, especially in this recession.”
Bidding for the iconic ivory pleated dress Monroe wore in “The Seven Year Itch” was “totally magical,” Morgan said.
With the auction company getting a $1 million commission, the buyer will pay $5.6 million. It had been expected to sell for $2 million, the auction house, Profiles in History, said.
The buyer, who was relaying his bids over a telephone, was not immediately identified.
The red-sequined showgirl gown and a feathered hat Monroe wore in “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes” sold for $1.47 million. The expected price was $300,000.
Monroe’s costumes from “There’s No Business Like Show Business” and “River of No Return” brought another $1.2 million Saturday.
The previous record price for a Monroe dress was $1.26 million paid in 1999 for the sheer white dress the actress wore in May 1962 when she sang “Happy Birthday” to President John F. Kennedy.
Morgan, who is writing a book about Monroe’s death, said the actress would have been shocked to know her dresses would sell for so much. She only had $2,000 in her bank account at the time of her death, he said.
Reynolds accumulated 3,500 movie costumes and thousands of props over the past 50 years with the hope of housing them in a museum. Taking care of the treasures became a financial burden on the 79-year-old entertainer, leading to her decision to sell, she said.
Other high-priced items included a blue cotton dress and a pair of ruby slippers made for Judy Garland in “The Wizard of Oz.” Although both items were only test costumes never worn in camera, they brought a combined price of nearly $1.75 million.
A matador outfit worn by Rudolph Valentino for the 1922 film “Blood and Sand” sold for $258,000. The auction house predicted before the sale it would go for about $80,000.
One of Charlie Chaplin’s signature bowler hats, worn in several films, sold for $135,300.
The World War I military uniform worn by Gary Cooper in the 1941 movie “Sergeant York” was purchased for $67,650.
A bidder paid $73,800 for the velvet brown racing silks and riding pants worn by a young Elizabeth Taylor in “National Velvet.”
How did the early fashion shoot go yesterday MBB?
:lol:
A schoolboy murdered a former girlfriend after he was promised a free breakfast from a friend if he carried out the killing, a jury heard yesterday
Rebecca Aylward (15) of Maesteg, near Bridgend, south Wales, was battered to death within weeks of the chilling bet.
Her alleged killer (16) lured her to a secluded wood near Bridgend where he smashed her head with a rock, the court heard. To divert suspicion from himself, he had previously told her to say she was meeting someone else.
But she failed to follow his directions and told her mother the name of the person she was meeting, the jury heard.
Evidence from electronic sources will play a key role in the prosecution case of what he called a “teenage murder”.
The young man denies the charge of murder.
Mr Taylor said the teenagers had briefly been in a relationship about a year before the murder and had kept in touch.
The defendant used to meet every Saturday at a local cafe in the area with teenage friends where they had breakfast.
At one such meeting he openly discussed killing the girl, his friends assuming he was joking.
They later told police he had a reputation for saying he was going to do things he never subsequently did.
But in a later text to one friend he asks: “What would you do if I actually did kill her?”
The friend replies: “Oh, I would buy you breakfast.”
Two days before the killing the defendant contacted his friend to confirm he would attend their breakfast date.
He then added to the text: “Don’t say anything but you may just owe me a breakfast.”
The friend replies: “Best text I have ever had mate. Seriously, if it is true I am happy to pay for a breakfast.” The defendant adds: “I hope by then it will be done and dusted.”
The friend replies: “I want all the details. You sadistic bastard.” The text finished with a smiley face symbol. The trial, which is scheduled to run for up to five weeks, was adjourned.
Did he get the breakfast?
Who reared these fucking animals…
bullet in the back of the neck for these 2 animals is the only just punishment
I dont think orally raping them is the answer Art. I’d prefer to shoot them.
I think that the potential breakfast buyer could be accused of egging him on.
I dont think his reaction could have been any rasher.
does this make them cereal killers ?
How long will it take sidwaddell to try to out do us?
