Mia Farrow may have been named one of Time magazine’s Most Influential People in the World in 2008, but I remember her best from her electrifying role in the very creepy 1968 film Rosemary’s Baby. And her fans are in for a special treat this weekend as three of her dresses, including today’s VPOD, will become available at auction.
Today’s VPOD features a 1960s trapeze-style accordian-pleated silk chiffon minidress in a bold graphic print that Pierre Cardin designed exclusively for the actress’s first starring film role.
It’s just one of the many lots available at the Whitaker-Augusta Auction Company’s Fall 2008 Vintage Clothing & Textile Auction taking place in New Hope, Pennsylvania, this Friday and Saturday.
Almost 350 of the over 1200 cataloged lots are available for live bidding on eBay and several photo galleries and full auction details are available at WhitakerAuction.com.
It’s a treasure trove of vintage treats for vintage fashionistas!
