A remarkable collection of costumes created and supplied by Angels The Costumiers, for some of the most iconic international film, television and theatre productions in history will be sold at Bonhams on Tuesday 6 March 2007, in what is believed to be the UK’s largest auction of film and television costumes.
More than 400 Angels outfits including Obi Wan’s Cloak (Star Wars) and James Bond’s Suits will be available to collectors and amateur fans alike. Other lots in the Bonhams sale of Angels costumes include the most prominent costumes from films such as Evita and Superman.
Several outfits worn by Madonna in the Eva Peron film biography, Evita (1996) are on auction including a stone coloured coat, blouse and skirt (£500-700), a black silk patterned dress with a mint coloured and peach coloured slip (£400-500), a green coloured dressing gown, white satin and peach satin slip (£300-400) and a navy blue wool suit and blouse (£400-500).
