Lady Sybil, portrayed by Jessica Brown Findlay, wore a pair of harem pants in the series, which are also up for auction.
Maggie Smith, who portrayed Violet Crawley, is honoured in the auction with a prominently featured portrait. The auction also includes items from the late Lady Sybil's wedding, such as her wedding dress, worn by Laura Carmichael. Other iconic props like a grandfather clock from the Crawley house, an elegant fan belonging to Violet Crawley, and signed scripts are also part of the collection.
The estimated value of most items ranges from around 800 euros to several thousand euros. The final sum from the auction will benefit a charitable organisation that supports children with life-threatening illnesses.
