Jerry Hall To Auction Her Wedding Dress To Mick Jagger To Benefit The Homeless

Friday, May 16, 2008

Former supermodel Jerry Hall is putting her own closet up for auction. She is handing over her stuff, including her wedding dress, to benefit the homeless.

The former partner of Rolling Stones lead Mick Jagger will put 430 of her stuff up for auction to benefit the Emmaus charity. The items would include 430 articles of clothing, accessories, textiles dating from 1700 to 2000, and couture creations by top designers Dior, Balmain, and Balenciaga.

The auction is set to take place at Sotheby’s Olympia in London on June 10 after a two-day exhibition.

Perhaps, one of the most memorable pieces included is the wedding dress the 51-year-old wore for her nuptials to Jagger in 1990. The dress is estimated to fetch from $600 to $1,000.

Other stand out items include designs by British fashion designers Bruce Oldfield and Antony Price, her showgirl outfit in the film “Bus Stop,” and a Thierry Mugler pink satin and cut velvet evening ensemble.

Hall has been quoted by fashionweekdaily.com as saying, “I have led a very glamorous life in many ways, but I know all too well how quickly lives can become derailed. I have been fortunate enough to have always had plenty of support, but not everyone is as lucky. It is easier than you might think to lose everything.

Hall was “married” to the rocker in an unofficial Balinese ceremony in 1990. They separated in 1999.
