Phoebe Waller-Bridge just closed the sale of her Golden Globes 2020 outfit for a cool $40,000 Australian dollars.
Earlier this month, the writer and actor put the suit up for sale on eBay, with the intention of donating the funds raised to the Australian bush fire relief efforts.
The sale closed today with the highest bidder putting down $40,000 for the bespoke suit that Phoebe scooped the accolade for Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy TV Series for her work on Fleabag.
