The late singer Amy Winehouse’s Back to Black dress, designed by Disaya Sorakraikitikul, has exceeded all estimates, going under the hammer at Kerry Taylor Auctions for £43,200.
The higher estimate for the dress was originally £20,000.
The Museo de la Moda in Santiago, Chile, was the successful bidder.
The Passion for Fashion auction took place earlier on Tuesday at La Galleria, 30 Royal Opera Arcade, Pall Mall. Winehouse’s father, Mitch, was present.
Audrey Hepburn’s Roman Holiday dress, which was tipped to sell at between £40,000 and £60,000, remained unsold.
Amy Winehouse’s next album, Lioness: Hidden Treasures, featuring her unreleased tracks, will be released on Monday (US buyers click here; UK buyers click here for the CD, and here for the vinyl LP). One pound from each album sold will go to the Amy Winehouse Foundation.
