Venue 249-253 Long Lane London SE1 4PR See map on page 80

InTRoDucTIon What makes my job so interesting is not just the pieces themselves but the people who have owned them. In this auction we have some highly individual collections belonging to some fascinating people. Lots 158 to 175 are from the Joanna Lumley collection. Joanna joined Jean Muir as her house model in 1964 and although she remained there for just a few months (Joanna turned her attention to acting) they remained lifelong friends. She continued to model in her fashion shows, (her diary permitting) over the following decades. Her collection includes a simple black satin dress (lot 161) which was Joanna’s first ever Muir purchase. She saved up from her £10 a week pay packet to buy it and it bears the early Jane & Jane label. The collection is being sold in aid of ‘Elizabeth’s Legacy of Hope’ charity. Lot 176 is the wedding dress worn by nikki Squire for her marriage to the musician chris Squire of ‘Yes’. The photograph of the couple on page 46 illustrates so perfectly the back to nature, flower-power hippy trend, with flowers on the skirt and also in her hair. The dashing groom in 18th century style coat and thigh high boots makes me think that rock stars really knew how to dress in those days! It’s interesting to reflect that just a few years later Vivienne Westwood and Malcolm McLaren burst onto the fashion scene and swept away all that romanticism with obscene images, graffiti like slogans, slashed fabric and safety pins. Highly prized Seditionaries pieces from the collections of Dean Thatcher and the late ‘Marty’ Martinson are offered as lots 205-211. Scarlett cannon was an 80’s club Kid, and at just eighteen became the founder and host of the ‘cha cha’ nightclub in 1981. She was a walking style statement. Her extreme and unique looks well suited her avant-garde wardrobe by Leigh Bowery, Bodymap, Westwood , christopher nemeth and Judy Blame. Her Leigh Bowery pieces are exceptional and museum quality (lots 212-223). of course in addition to these wonderful single-owner collections there is a plethora of glamorous, wearable couture and rare early pieces by Gabrielle chanel, Madeleine Vionnet and Paul Poiret. Add to this a mixture of superb, early textiles and you have yet another highly individual, high quality auction which I hope you enjoy!

AccESSoRIES Please note all lots bearing ∆ symbol will need a cITES licence to export outside of the Eu, which we are happy to assist with. See page 79 for more information.

53 A fine military or tailor’s patchwork, circa 1850-60, the central diamond shaped medallion of scarlet melton uniform fabrics, appliquéd and embroidered with three-dimensional pansies, daisies and briar roses, with satin-stitched butterflies, against a chequered field of blue, yellow, ivory and scarlet uniform wool patches, within scarlet appliquéd bands applied with black roses and thistles, gold silk embroidered veining to the leaves, the ground composed of diamond shaped suiting fabrics in black and shades of grey, two horizontal scarlet bands appliquéd and embroidered with polychrome raised-work flowerheads, with purple velvet to the thistles and pansies, the outer border in red and black wools adorned with hearts, starbursts and floral sprigs, 217 by 197cm

The central section of the coverlet made up from British military uniforms is redolent of a group of patchworks made by soldiers and dating from the crimean War period. However, it is unusual to also find incorporated men’s suiting fabrics. The raised-work flowers, some of the central roses with three dimensional individually cut petals, also make it exceptional.

There was a tradition in the military for the making of these coverlets from the crimean War to circa 1910 when khaki was introduced. Wounded soldiers were encouraged to make them as a means of whiling away their convalescent hours. There is an oil painting of Private Thomas Walker, 1856 in the Royal college of Surgeons collection, which shows the wounded soldier in bed sewing together uniform patches to make a coverlet. See ‘Quilts’ V&A publications p.85 for a reproduction of this painting. Three large wool patchwork covers of this type were exhibited at the Great Exhibition in 1851, all made by men including a policeman and a Bristol tailor. £6000 - 10000 53 (detail)

The parent company was established in Scotland in 1867 under the direction of James Morton (18671943) - the firm that supplied Liberty’s and other leading stores with gauzes, textiles and carpets. It included amongst its designers cFA Voysey, Lindsay P. Butterfield, the Silver Studio and MH Baillie Scott. Gavin Morton (1867-1954) was the nephew of Alexander Morton and cousin of James who became chief designer for the firm. This panel was woven for the drawing room of his own house in carlisle.

This design was woven by Morris at Queen Square and Merton Abbey. An identical fabric was draped around the walls of the first floor drawing room of Kelmscott House in April 1878. May Morris believed the design to be ‘intimate and friendly... the most adaptable to the needs of everyday life. It suggest not the wealth of the millionaire but the modest competence of a middle class merchant who lives...with the few beautiful things he has collected slowly and carefully’. cf Victoria & Albert Museum ‘William Morris’ catalogue, edited by Linda Parry p.270 for a reproduction of this design. £2000 - 3000

Literature: Metropolitan Museum, ‘chanel’ p.164 for an illustration of a similar gown. WWD (August 15, 1924) reported ‘There is one beaded evening dress that will probably be much seen about ...of black georgette, cut with the deep u neckline at back and a less deep one at front that is the favourite decolletage here this season. Its skirt has two or three layers of the crêpe from waist to about knee-line slit into half inch wide fringes of irregular lengths that are weighted down by being covered with jet bugles’.

A similar gown was also illustrated in French Vogue, 15th november 1924, p.68, and in British Vogue, December 1924, p.37, 'Fringe Holds Graceful Sway over Paris Dancing Frocks', but shows a deeper, lower back than the example in this sale, but has identical beaded details. 1st Dibs sold another version of the black ribbon dress, Spring 2012, with a higher back (similar to lot 78) but with a sheer chiffon overdress with ribbon edged sleeves and similarly worked skirt which was labelled ‘Gabrielle chanel’. It seems that chanel produced a number of variations of this gown for its different markets and clientele. The plunging low back might have been deemed inappropriate or too racy for the more mature client. £10000 - 15000 23

In 1962 Jean Muir produced her first independent collection under the Jane & Jane label with the backing of the entrepreneur David Barnes. She traded out of 19 Great Portland St. Although the design was under her complete control she did not own the label. In 1966 she set up her own label with her husband Harry as her co-director and opened a showroom in Bruton Street. Jean Muir’s designs were voted Dress of the Year twice in the 1960s - in 1964 when trading as Jane & Jane and in 1968 under the Jean Muir label. Joanna Lumley became one of Miss Muir’s house models in 1964 at the age of 18. Joanna remembers: ‘My job as Jean’s house model was to have clothes built on me while I stood rock still, or bent an arm, or twirled ... I only worked for her for a few months but I stayed her friend for life. Although I went on to become an actress, I always modelled in Jean’s shows if I was in the country. Those who were in her inner circle nick-named themselves ‘The Muirettes’... The collection I am selling is about half of my Jean Muir dresses; the others were given away, worn to shreds or have been kept by me and worn to this day. I want them to go on to another life, another wave of appreciation, even though each one tugs at my memory’s heartstrings’. A fascinating and greatly expanded account of Joanna Lumley’s relationship with Jean Muir can be seen on our website.

In this gown McQueen again reveals his total mastery and understanding of construction. The regularity of the harlequinade pattern serves to confuse the eye as it folds, drapes and ruffles. The dress seems to be caught in a whirl-wind as the organza is ruffled and twisted around the inner column. In this powerful collection his models with their death-white faces and grotesque scarlet sexdoll lipsticked mouths picked their way along a shattered glass catwalk against a back-drop of debris. The main colours were black, white and blood red with the orange and black harlequin print acting as a foil. He played with scale and pattern using outsized Dior-like hound’s tooth checks, bird motifs and used an eclectic mixture of leather, metal, plastic, feathers and swirling organza to create the models. The silhouettes were fifties inspired with new-Look wide skirts or figure-hugging sheaths. The final piece was a sinister dress with winged shoulders and helmet made entirely of duck feathers.

Sara Mower reviewing the collection at the time wrote, ‘The clothes were, for the most part, high-drama satires of 20th century landmark fashion: parodies of christian Dior houndstooth new Look and chanel tweed suits, moving through harsh orange and black harlequinade looks to revisited showstoppers from McQueen’s own archive’. £3500 - 5000

285 Andy Murray’s Adidas tennis shirt, worn for his Grand Slam final match for the uS open title, 2012, signed by Andy Murray in black marker pen to the front, of white damask-effect polyester with navy Adidas logos, orange flashes,’RBS’ sponsor badge to one sleeve, chest 107cm, 42in; together with a letter of authenticity signed by Andy Murray (2) This historic win by Andy Murray ended Britain’s 76 year wait for a male Grand Slam Singles champion. Fred Perry was the last to achieve this goal in 1936. Murray’s victory against novak Djokovic at Flushing Meadows on 10th September 2012, topped off an exceptional summer of British sporting success, coming on the heels of the London olympics where Andy Murray also won gold in the men’s singles against his old rival Roger Federer. This was a particularly sweet success for Murray having narrowly lost at Wimbledon a few months earlier.

285 Young people are regularly being harmed for life by legal highs and club drugs and in the most tragic cases, they even die. Legal highs are generally assumed safe, but in recent surveys two-thirds of young people and eighty-six per cent of parents admit that they didn’t know legal highs are often a combination of class B drugs and toxic chemicals like paint stripper, bath salts and plant food, and that they can cause suicidal thoughts, severe depression, psychosis, panic attacks, difficulty breathing, urinating blood, even the loss of the use of the bladder. The Angelus Foundation works to improve understanding and raise awareness of the dangers of these untested substances so that young people no longer unwittingly play Russian Roulette with their lives, but instead have fun safely. www.angelusfoundation.org

This shirt represents one of the greatest moments of British sporting history this century. £5000 - 8000
