Antique and Vintage Fashion, Textiles & Accessories
Tuesday May 25th at 10.30am
Our Spring Fashion and Textile auction is wide ranging and enticing. For the men we have the 1950s-60s Savile Row wardrobe of the actor Richard Todd. One of his most memorable roles was as the handsome Wing Commander – Guy Gibson in the `Dam Busters’ in 1955. Mainly made by Cyril A. Castle they include morning suits, evening wear, country tweeds and city suits (lots 1187-1189). Immediately following on from these is the eye-catching wardrobe of Charles Lucas. He came into his inheritance in the 1960s and enjoyed himself by racing Formula III cars and dressing at Granny Takes a Trip, Mr Fish and the Savile Row tailor Sullivan, Woolley & Co. Not for him the sobriety of Mr Todd’s wardrobe. It is a riot of stripes, flowers, kipper ties and velvet. It is one of the grooviest male wardrobes ever to come to auction.
Female fashion ranges from Queen Victoria’s underwear, superb romantic Edwardian summer gowns, antique bridal wear, beaded flapper gowns, bias cut 30s garden party dresses, 40s suits with angular shoulders, 50s prom gowns, Balenciaga couture evening jacket, 60s pieces by Biba, 70s by Ossie Clark and Thea Porter, YSL Rive Gauche, Jean Paul Gaultier and Chanel.
