From her pink Material Girl dress to her Evita wedding gown, what organisers say is the largest private collection of Madonna’s film outfits, stage costumes and artefacts went on preview in London today.
The collection unearths a treasure trove of more than 300 personal items from the star’s 25-year career.
An array of clothing, photographs, film props, costumes, concert outfits and personal items are being showcased in an exhibition including multi-media displays and installations.
A collection of more than 30 dresses worn in the hit film 'Evita' are included in the event as well as items representing Madonna’s major performances, concerts and films.
Exhibition highlights include the pink dress worn in the 1985 pop video for 'Material Girl' and the black and gold tasselled bustier worn in the video for 'Open Your Heart' in 1986.
Also on display are:
:: Baseball costume worn in the 1992 movie 'League Of Their Own';
:: Wedding dress worn in the 1996 film 'Evita';
:: Two MTV awards given to Madonna for 'Ray Of Light';
:: The complete outfit worn in the 1999 music video for 'American Pie';

The exhibition is being curated on behalf of Marquee Capital, who own more than 150 Madonna memorabilia items.
