Winehouse wedding dress stolen from singer's home

 
 

LONDON (AP) - Amy Winehouse's charity has disclosed that two of the late singer's dresses, including her wedding dress, were missing and believed stolen from her former London home.

The Amy Winehouse Foundation said on Thursday the dress Winehouse wore for her 2006 Miami wedding to Blake Fielder-Civil and a newsprint cocktail dress she wore during a British TV appearance were both missing. The presumed theft was discovered during an inventory.

The wedding dress was to have been auctioned off for the charity, established to help young people overcome addiction.

The singer's father, Mr Mitch Winehouse, told the Evening Standard it was "sickening that someone would steal something in the knowledge of its sentimental value".
