A dress and jacket worn by Whitney Houston as Emma in Sparkle (Sony Pictures, 2012) The ensemble is an original Rona New York 1960’s dress and matching jacket. The garments are constructed out of a coffee-colored wool knit fabric with a cream trim and decorative gold tone grommets. The ensemble is prominently featured in the movie trailer and worn in the beginning of the film when Emma jokes with Sparkle about dancing provocatively. Sparkle was the last film that Houston performed in before her untimely death. Critics rave that Houston’s performance was incredible and the film was an amazing exit for the iconic entertainer. USA Today’s Caludia Puig wrote, "Sparkle adds a bright facet to Whitney Houston’s legacy” and “Sparkle is a fitting curtain call." Accompanied by a copy of the film and a certificate of authenticity signed by the costume house. Categories: Whitney Houston
