Versuchen GOLD - Frei
Chance for fans of Downton Abbey to bid for costumes, props - and car
The Guardian
|August 18, 2025
Downton Abbey fans will be able to bid for a souvenir from the period drama in a charity auction selling costumes worn by the characters, furniture from the stately home and even the family car used in the ITV series and subsequent films.
A dress worn by the late Dame Maggie Smith, who starred as Violet Crawley, Dowager Countess of Grantham, is one of the star lots.
The wedding dress Michelle Dockery wore as Lady Mary Crawley when she married Matthew Crawley, played by Dan Stevens, is also up for sale.
The pale apricot chiffon long-sleeved dress comes with a pair of ivory satin Mary Jane shoes, a paste tiara and silk tulle veil and is estimated at £3,000-£5,000 in the online sale by the auction house Bonhams.
