I feel spoiled for choice over favourite lots in this year's auction, but this is a contender!
This fabulous sleeveless jacket was purchased in the Apple Boutique. It's red/orange and fluffy with a yellow/gold brocade on the edges and hook fasteners - the photo doesn't really do it justice. It was designed by The Fool and has an Apple Boutique label. It's one seriously groovy item.
The Apple Boutique opened its door towards the end of 1967 and closed them again barely seven months later in July 1968.
This fab bit of gear is going under the hammer in our Annual Beatles Memorabilia Auction next month and is estimated at £400-£500
