An NYC auction will feature items belonging to deceased music icon Amy Winehouse.
The collection of fifty pieces includes items synonymous with the London artist's style, including worn pink satin ballet slippers and black eyeliner.
A highlight appearing at auction for the first time is the Dolce & Gabbana shell-patterned dress worn in Amy's 2004 “F*ck Me Pumps” music video (estimate: $10,000 - $20,000).
In the music video, directed by Marlene Rhein, Winehouse can be seen walking the streets of London with a microphone and wearing black pumps. The track was the fourth and final single from Amy's debut album Frank.
Other lots include iconic costumes and personal property, as well as never-before-seen items such as a group of figure-hugging mini-dresses Winehouse designed with stylist Naomi Parry. They were for a new fashion line and for Winehouse's 2011 European Tour but were never worn due to the singer's untimely passing.
The Julien's Auctions sale has been curated by Parry, author of the Beyond Black biography and Winehouse’s close friend, who Julien's says "created many of the style icon’s most famous fashion moments."
"Julien’s Auctions is proud to unveil our annual Music Icons lineup featuring a collection of over 1,200 museum quality artifacts, instruments and memorabilia that have earned their place in the pantheon of music history," said Martin Nolan, Founder and Executive Director of Julien’s Auctions.
Julien's Auctions MUSIC ICONS sale will take place 19-21 May live at Hard Rock Cafe, New York and online.
