I was googling general information about auctions, because I recall reading mentions of famous dresses up for sale. But I ran across an extremely specific relevant item in a story about auctioning off Debbie Reynolds’ giant collection of Hollywood artifacts.
“When Reynolds decided to auction off her collection, she turned to [auctioneer] Maddalena. Over the years he produced three auctions for her, including a high-profile 2011 event that featured several iconic costumes, from Hepburn’s black-and-white Cecil Beaton gown from My Fair Lady, which fetched $3.7 million, to Marilyn Monroe’s white halter dress from The Seven Year Itch, which went for $5.6 million.”
