Dua Lipa’s rаcy jumpsuit tops auction as most seductive
A catsuit worn on stage by Dua Lipa, a guitar played in concert by Jon Bon Jovi and a skateboard signed by Olivia Rodrigo are among the musical treasures set to be auctioned off Sunday for charity by Julien’s Auctions.
On Monday, the auction house and the music industry charity organization MusiCares revealed a new lot of musical treasures set to be sold off in conjunction with Sunday’s 66th annual Grammy Awards from Los Angeles.
The custom-made gold ‘Illusion’ catsuit, which comes with elbow-length gloves, is a Casey Cadwallader for Mugler creation the 28-year-old songstress wore during multiple stops as part of her Future Nostalgia tour in the fall of 2022.
Dua Lipa had been pictured wearing the ensemble during a September 8th, 2022 show in São Paulo, Brazil, as well as a September 13, 2022 show in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
The custom bodysuit is estimated to sell for between $4,000 — $6,000, according to Julien’s, which said it ‘took over 1,160 cumulative hours to complete and is all over embroidered with 120,000 crystals.’
The bodysuit features ‘a boned bodice with overall spiral sheer tulle panels and matching gloves,’ as the ‘spiral-like sheer splices are the brand’s signature design under Cadwallader’s creative direction.’
The auction also includes multiple items from famed recording artist Jon Bon Jovi, who is being honored as MusiCares Person of the Year 2024.
The highest-estimated item from Bon Jovi is a stage-played 2018 Takamine EF341SC acoustic guitar, with a gloss black finish with Mahogany neck. It comes with a guitar case with custom picks and a black Dunlop guitar strap.
