[QUOTE="afantiques, post: 88077, member: 25"]Just digging up this old thread to say that I put the dress in an auction and it sold today, comfortably beating its estimate of 50 to 80 pounds. Hammer price was £230. It was a specialist sale for 20th C design, which may have helped. Very gratifying anyway and I don't begrudge the auction commission when the result in my pocket will be several times the most I would have asked for it at a fair.[/QUOTE]
