Read MoreSurrey Rocks Magazine Triple C co-founder and celebrity journalist Angela Sara West gives the lowdown on how a star-studded charity auction brought Ab Fab, Downton & Kate Moss Fashion to Surrey! A star-studded charity auction has raised over £23k for Marie Curie, the UK’s leading end-of-life charity. Curated by actress, singer and comedian Jane Horrocks (aka Bubble in hit show ‘Absolutely Fabulous’), ‘The Diary of a Wardrobe’ auction at Ewbanks in Woking saw close to 60 items kindly donated by some of the UK’s most-loved celebrities go under the hammer. Many auction lots came with exciting backstories, personal photographs or handwritten notes from the celebrity or VIP donors, including Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Stephen Fry, Twiggy, Mel Giedroyc, Lulu and Dame Emma Thompson. “Dame Joanna Lumley donated a beautiful Chanel jacket that she wore as Patsy, her character in 'Absolutely Fabulous', supermodel Kate Moss donated fabulous bespoke 'So Kate' Louboutin shoes and David Tennant donated shoes he wore on ‘Comic Relief’,” says Jane. “We also had red-carpet outfits from Dame Julie Walters, Vic Reeves’ glasses, and goggles worn by Sir Ranulph Fiennes on his North-to-South Pole travels.” Genuine ‘Downton Abbey’ costumes included the auction’s top seller, a gold evening dress worn by Lady Edith (Laura Carmichael), along with a suit worn by Robert Crawley, Earl of Grantham (Hugh Bonneville), while a costume from the new Amy Winehouse 'Back to Black' film was also up for grabs. "It was so much fun! Playing at being an auctioneer myself with the gavel was a blast, but the real thrill was seeing bids coming through and the total raised for Marie Curie, an amazing charity so close to my heart… Knowing what a difference it makes is phenomenal. Congratulations to all successful bidders and a big ‘thank you’ to the generous celebrities and VIPs who donated pieces to help make it such a unique and successful event!" www.mariecurie.org.uk Angela Sara West 2024 Insta: @angela_sara_west
