The dress worn by Amy Winehouse during her final performance is among hundreds of items up for grabs in an auction dedicated to the late singer.

The Rehab and Stronger Than Me star died in 2011 at the age of 27, three years after she made history by winning five Grammy Awards in a single night.

Winehouse was also widely regarded as a style icon, and outfits and accessories from a variety of her stage shows, charity events, red carpet appearances and beyond will feature in the auction.

The collection will feature 800 items which belonged to Winehouse, ranging from smaller personal pieces starting at $100 to big ticket items with a starting price of $20,000.

Her final performance dress is set to be the showstopper.

The green dress designed by her friend Naomi Parry is currently estimated to go for $15,000 to $20,000.

Also up for grabs is a heart-shaped purse designed by Italian fashion house Moschino, with bidding tipped to begin at $15,000 to $20,000, and a pair of ballet shoes worn on stage with Mick Jagger.

Money raised will go towards the London-based Amy Winehouse Foundation, which aims to help young people dealing with addiction through music therapy, providing recovery pathways, and housing for young women that “have been displaced from home because of various struggles in their personal lives”.

Martin Nolan, executive director of Julien’s Auctions, said a “generous portion” of the sale proceeds will benefit the foundation and revealed the auction had attracted attention from across the world.

“We have people registering to bid in this auction from everywhere,” he added. “She is a global icon, a fashion icon, loved all over the world.”

The exhibition opened to the public in Los Angeles this week, and the bidding is due to begin on 6 November, both at Julien’s Auction in Beverley Hills and on its website.

Mr Nolan said the selection of items represented “an amazing life and career”.

“She had such a diverse, amazing voice, she gave us so much entertainment,” he said. “And now people have an opportunity to own some of these items that represented that amazing life.”

Those hoping to snap something up will have to move fast, as the auction ends on 7 November.
