More than 60 years after Elizabeth Taylor wore a Dior gown to the 1961 Oscars, it’s been found and is up for auction.
Just call it a holiday miracle.
The Christian Dior gown Elizabeth Taylor wore to the 1961 Oscars has been missing ever since the eventful night when the actress won the award for Best Actress for her role in “BUtterfield 8.”
She wore the dress, designed by Marc Bohan, with opera-length gloves and diamond and pearl earrings and took then-husband Eddie Fischer as her date.
According to Kerry Taylor Auctions, the meaningful gown was located this summer — more than 60 years later — in a suitcase in London, where Taylor and Richard Burton owned a home and frequently visited.
