Celebrity items fetch thousands at charity auction

The Swarovski crystal encrusted shoes designed for Kate Moss

A number of celebrity items, including a pair of crystal encrusted stilettos owned by supermodel Kate Moss, have sold for thousands at a charity auction in Surrey.

Moss's shoes fetched £1,500, a gold evening dress from Downton Abbey sold for £2,400 and a three-piece tweed suit worn by David Tennant made £1,400.

The event at auctioneers Ewbank’s in Send was organised by actress Jane Horrocks, who played Bubble in the BBC comedy Absolutely Fabulous.

She decided to sell some of her “lovely clothes with a story to tell” to raise money for end of life charity Marie Curie, after a house move.

"Wouldn’t it be wonderful, I thought, if these clothes could be auctioned for Marie Curie, a charity very close to my heart," Horrocks said.

"We reached out to people in the public eye to see if they might have some hidden gems in their wardrobe too.”

The “So Kate” Christian Louboutin boxed Swarovski crystal shoes came with a signed note.

Moss said: “These ones are the perfect shoes for finishing off any outfit; just the right amount of sparkle!”

Other lots in the Diary of a Wardrobe auction included a T-shirt stained with fake blood which Daniel Craig wore in a Broadway production of Macbeth, which sold for £440.

There were also evening gowns that Dame Julie Walters wore to awards ceremonies and a pair of glasses comedian Vic Reeves donned on the set of Shooting Stars.

Doctor Who star Tennant donated a three-piece tweed suit, which he wore in a West End production of Don Juan.

Horrocks told BBC Surrey he made a video about the time he wore the suit.

"Hopefully they'll go on living these outfits," she said. "It's so nice that they actually might be worn again."

There were also outfits worn by Michelle Dockery, Laura Michael and Hugh Bonneville in the period drama Downton Abbey.

Dame Joanna Lumley, who co-starred with Jane Horrocks in Absolutely Fabulous, donated a Chanel jacket worn by her character Patsy Stone.

Her accompanying note read: “When Patsy felt the need to look even more glamorous she would reach for her Chanel jacket.”

She added: “I utterly adore it: it is absolutely fabulous and I hope its new owner will love it to bits.”

The auction took place on Thursday at 14:00 BST.
