Will Ferrell’s festive costume from the Christmas film Elf could fetch between £100,000 (€113,667) and £200,000 (€227,334) when it goes under the hammer as part of a movie memorabilia auction.

The green, white, yellow and black elf outfit, which originates from the film’s producer Jon Berg, is screen-matched to the lift scene where Buddy pushes all of the buttons to see them light up like a Christmas tree.
