A black Givenchy dress made for Audrey Hepburn for her role in Breakfast at Tiffany's has sold for £467,200 at a London auction.

Gasps, laughter and applause were heard at Christie's auction house as bids for the black sleeveless gown exceeded the expected price of £70,000.

The winning sum was paid by an anonymous telephone bidder.

Proceeds from the sale go to the City of Joy Aid charity, which was set up by French author Dominique Lapierre.
