NEW YORK (AP) - A pink cocktail dress worn by Audrey Hepburn in "Breakfast at Tiffany's" was auctioned Wednesday for nearly $200,000 more than six times what the auctioneers expected.
The sleeveless dress, worn for the scene in which Holly Golightly discovers her brother has died, sold for $192,000 to a private European buyer at Christie's sale of film and entertainment memorabilia. The iconic black dress she also wore in the film sold for more than $800,000 last year at London auction.
Christie's said it had expected the pink dress to sell for as much as $30,000.
