This vintage wool suit has had quite the journey. @palacecostumeofficial acquired the item from former president Lydon B. Johnson’s estate and had supposedly been owned by one of his mistresses, but which mistress is unknown, and no photo documentation of the suit being worn has been found at this point. The suit was acquired from a Palace Costume for Madonna to wear in the 1996 film adaptation of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s musical 𝑬𝒗𝒊𝒕𝒂, where she played the role of Eva Perón. The suit was used the following year when it was worn by Fran Drescher as Fran Fine in the fourth season episode of 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑵𝒂𝒏𝒏𝒚 entitled 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑭𝒂𝒄𝒕𝒔 𝒐𝒇 𝑳𝒊𝒄𝒆. The suit ultimately went up for auction - find out more at Bit.ly/PostEd246
