Julien’s Auctions and Turner Classic Movies (TCM) – the ultimate destination for Hollywood memorabilia auctions – is rolling out the red carpet with a grand finale to their four day event “Julien’s Auctions And TCM Present: Hollywood Legends” taking place Thursday, December 14^th, Friday, December 15^th, Saturday, December 16^th and Sunday, December 17^thin Beverly Hills and online at JuliensLive.com.

The aptly titled Day 4 presentation “Glamour, Grace & Greatness: Classic Hollywood Auction” concludes the year-end auction event and Julien’s 20th anniversary celebration with a collection of some of the most head turning and star making pieces of the greatest style icons of all time, created by some of the most acclaimed and revered designers in fashion and Hollywood history.

Making a stunning appearance on the auction block this December will be a piece from one of the most iconic images ever taken of Princess Diana: her blush pink chiffon Emanuels blouse worn in her famous 1981 engagement portrait photographed by Lord Snowdon.

The blouse with ruffle collar, peasant-style sleeves with ruffled cuffs and satin ribbon that tie under the collar into a bow is attributed to designers David and Elizabeth Emanuel who went on to design Princess Diana's wedding gown. Diana after becoming engaged to then Prince Charles was introduced to Anna Harvey, the fashion editor at British Vogue from 1977 to 1990, who would advise Princess Diana on the current fashions and suitable designs and accessories to wear for her public appearances. The blouse Diana wears in the portrait by Lord Snowden was on a rack of options presented to Diana and Harvey recalls in Diana Her Life In Fashion by Georgina Howell, "'I don't think she had any idea how many lovely things were out there,' says Harvey. 'Her enthusiasm was contagious.'" Harvey then went on to introduce Diana to the designers who went on to create the romantic-fairytale-princess image Diana was known for in the early 80s.

Another famous piece is her beautiful, romantic ballerina-length evening dress designed by Moroccan-British fashion designer Jacques Azagury for the Princess of Wales and worn in Florence, Italy April 23, 1985. The dress with padded shoulder pads features a black velvet bodice with embroidered stars in metallic thread made from Jakob Schlaepher fabric with a two-tier royal blue organza skirt with a sash and bow. The ballerina skirt was the perfect nod to Diana's love of dance and her being a patron of The English National Ballet. Diana would wear numerous dresses and gowns by Azagury, one of her favorites was an ice blue silk georgette mini-dress worn June 3, 1997, to Royal Albert Hall for a performance of Swan Lake.

In one of her most memorable roles as Regina "Reggie" Lampert in the film Charade, Audrey Hepburn epitomized French chic and elegance with her costumes designed by legendary French Couturier Hubert Givenchy such as her iconic Givenchy marigold wool coat (Estimate: $20,000 - $40,000) and cream wool Givenchy dress (Estimate: $30,000 - $50,000). Other pieces of Hepburn’s style hallmarks on offer include a 1950 emerald green, yellow, and black plaid wool blazer with black faille shawl lapel, a 1959 photo-worn tweed coat, and a Givenchy burgundy slip dress.

More costumes worn by “Hollywood Legends” in film noir classics to Christmas musicals will be represented such as the dramatic black satin sleeveless gown worn by Gloria Swanson as Norma Desmond in Billy Wilder's iconic film Sunset Boulevard and the blue and white cotton gingham pinafore worn by Margaret O'Brien as Tootie Smith in Meet Me in St. Louis, co-starring Judy Garland.

In the hunt for the most interesting “lost relics” of pop culture, Julien’s and TCM present one of the most remarkable finds this auction season featured in the beloved HBO series and global phenomenon, Sex and the City: the original custom Apple PowerBook G3 laptop used on screen by Sarah Jessica Parker in her role as Carrie Bradshaw.
