BEVERLY HILLS, CA.- Juliens Auctions announced Bold Luxury: Boy George Edit. Rising to global fame in the 1980s as the pioneering voice behind the band Culture Club, Boy George blended pop music with soul influences. With a career spanning over four decades, he remains a global cultural icon and an influential figure in both Fashion and Music. A portion of the proceeds from the auction will benefit MusiCares®.
This auction includes a curated selection of fashion, music memorabilia, and art from Boy George. His mantra, Fashion for the Fragile, Style for the Brave, is reflected throughout the designer looks featured in the sale. Expect to see custom pieces by avant-garde designers such as Vivienne Westwood, Jean Paul Gaultier, and John Galliano, as well as costumes he wore in Taboo and his iconic hats designed by renowned milliner Philip Treacy. While refined, the pieces in the sale embody the rebellious spirit of the 1980s, with bold, structural silhouettes that simultaneously showcase Boy Georges flamboyant and androgynous style.
Juliens Auctions is also pleased to share that Bold Luxury: Boy George Edit will be presented in a special exhibition at the Museum of Style Icons at Newbridge Silverware in Newbridge, Co. Kildare, Ireland. Opening on May 2, 2026, this will be the only opportunity for the public to view and enjoy these extraordinary designs in person, and admission is free of charge.
Boy George is synonymous with style and colour. His bold garments and stage-worn outfits captured the vibrant spirit of the 1980s. A true chameleon of style and fashion, his ever-changing and daring looks, complemented by his bold and distinctive Philip Treacy hats are both memorable and show stopping. We are delighted to showcase some of Boy Georges eclectic collection and to offer the public the chance to see inside the wardrobe of one of pops most distinctive stars., said William Doyle, CEO of Newbridge Silverware and the Museum of Style Icons
