UMA THURMAN, JENNIFER CONNELLY, BROOKE SHIELDS & SCARLETT JOHANSSON ARE AMONG THE STARS WITH MEMORABLE COSTUMES & PERSONAL PIECES HEADING UNDER THE HAMMER.

LOS ANGELES , CA, UNITED STATES, August 13, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Propstore, one of the world’s leading entertainment memorabilia auction houses, will offer a selection of female-led memorabilia as part of its Summer Entertainment Memorabilia Live Auction, taking place August 26 - 29, 2026, in Los Angeles. The auction at large will offer more than 1,700 lots of film and television props, costumes, autographed treasures, and other entertainment memorabilia, with a combined pre-sale estimate of $10 million. Collectors worldwide can participate through live online, absentee, and telephone bidding.

HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE:

Highlights include Sarah’s (Jennifer Connelly) screen-matched waistcoat, shirt and brooch from Jim Henson’s Labyrinth (1986), estimated at $25,000 - $50,000. Worn as Sarah entered the labyrinth, the distinctive costume screen-matches multiple scenes. Designed by Ellis Flyte, it originates from her collection and is being offered at public auction for the first time.

Two Uma Thurman pieces are also featured, led by Mia Wallace’s costume from Pulp Fiction (1994), estimated at $15,000 - $20,000. Worn during Mia’s night out with Vincent Vega (John Travolta), including their iconic twist at Jack Rabbit Slim’s, it is one of the most complete examples of the famous dance-scene ensemble ever offered at auction. At $2,000 - $4,000, Poison Ivy’s compact mirror from Batman & Robin (1997) offers another opportunity to acquire a piece connected to one of Thurman’s memorable characters.

Brooke Shields’ dress and coat from her December 1983 Cosmopolitan cover shoot are estimated at $13,000 - $26,000. Photographed by Francesco Scavullo, the red-and-black Bob Mackie design marked Shields’ transition from teen star to a more mature Hollywood image.

Major’s (Scarlett Johansson) stunt Thermoptic Suit from Ghost in the Shell (2017) is estimated at $8,000 - $16,000. Created by Weta Workshop from silicone, the futuristic suit was worn during key fight sequences, including Major’s battle with the spider tank, and is one of only four stunt versions made for the production.

The four-day Live Auction runs from August 26 - 29, 2026, with global online, absentee, and telephone bidding available throughout the four days.
