LOS ANGELES, CA.- Juliens’s Auctions announced “Bold Luxury: Step & Repeat Edit”, an auction featuring iconic red carpet designer looks. Items in the sale include pieces worn by A-List talent such as; Julia Roberts, Cate Blanchett and Viola Davis. The Julien’s Auctions team worked closely with Celebrity Stylist, Elizabeth Stewart, to source these rare and standout pieces.
“The idea for the auction came from Julia Roberts, who has donated many of her own gowns, along with Viola Davis, Laura Dern, Calista Flockhart, Cate Blanchett, Jessica Chastain, and many more,” says Elizabeth Stewart.
A portion of proceeds will benefit This Is About Humanity, a nonprofit dedicated to raising awareness and building a community of allies for separated and reunified children and families at the U.S.–Mexico border
“We’re so appreciative of Julien’s Auctions for working alongside This is About Humanity to support our ongoing work in ensuring critical aid to families across the US-Mexico border,” said Elsa Collins and Zoe Winkler Reinis, Co-Founders of This is About Humanity. “Without our supporters, including Elizabeth Stewart and Jordan Grossman who have so graciously donated these wonderful pieces for auction, we wouldn’t be able to ensure that every family is seen and supported.”
This sale features a unique curation of custom and ready-to-wear garments which allow bidders to get an up-close look at some of the most memorable, one-of-a-kind fashion moments. Each piece tells a story about key moments in many of these celebrated actors’ careers.
