Elizabeth Taylor`s wedding gown to be auctioned

London: Late actress Elizabeth Taylor’s first wedding dress will be auctioned by Christie`s here June 26. It is expected to raise 50,000 pounds.

The Helen Rose-designed shell-white satin gown was worn by her when she married Hilton Hotel founder Conrad Hilton in 1950, femalefirst.co.uk reports. Taylor was gifted the dress by film studio Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer to which the ‘Cleopatra’ actress was contracted. The star, who died in 2011 from congestive heart failure, married seven more times. IANS
