Colin Firth's 'wet-shirt' costume from the 1995 'Pride and Prejudice' adaptation fetched £20,000 at auction, surpassing its estimated value.

The auction, featuring celebrity costumes, raised £285,300 for The Bright Foundation, supporting arts education.

An online auction including Johnny Depp's original artwork will continue until March 10, aiming to aid young artists.

Costumes from stars like Madonna and Johnny Depp, donated by Cosprop and designed by John Bright, contributed to the fundraising.

The sale has renewed interest in the 'Pride and Prejudice' series, now celebrated as a classic comfort show.
