BRING & BUY: Finally!


Just after seven o'clock yesterday evening, the Björk swan dress went under the hammer (for a second time) and was finally sold for a grand total of £850 at an auction held by Cooper Owen at the Proud Galleries in Camden and on the 'Live Auction' section of eBay. The iconic white chiffon and beaded dress, which was selected by stylists Katy England and Alister Mackie to dress Royal Ballet principle dancer Ivan Putrov for our BRING & BUY fashion shoot in July, was eventually sold to (an incredibly lucky) floor bidder at the auction.

BRING & BUY: A date for your diary


A few weeks ago, we brought you news that bidders for the Björk swan dress from our BRING & BUY auction had pulled out in the final minutes and that as a result Oxfam had made the decision to sell the dress through the Cooper Owen auction house. The auction is being held tomorrow, Wednesday 7th December at the Proud Galleries in Camden. All items, including the infamous dress will be on view to the public between 12-2pm and the auction will commence at 3pm. You can also leave commission bids or bid in real-time on eBay. Good luck and happy bidding!
