From Faith to 25 Live: Two Iconic George Michael Looks Spotlighted at Auction

George Michael fans looking for a piece of George Michael history will be happy about Propstore’s two extraordinary pieces from George Michael’s wardrobe — items that not only defined two eras of his career but also captured George’s evolution.

Propstore’s Lot 100 and Lot 101 range from the classic Faith era look to the elegance of 25 Live.

The Faith Era: Ray-Ban 50 Sunglasses from the Faith Tour

Lot # 100. George Michael’s Owned and Stage-Worn Faith Tour Ray-Ban 50 Sunglasses, 1988

The iconic Ray-Ban sunglasses worn during the Faith video and Faith tour in 1988 are instantly recognizable. According to the auction site, this set of sunglasses was one of eight sets acquired for the Faith Tour in 1988.

A pair of Ray-Ban 50 sunglasses owned and worn by George Michael during his Faith World Tour. Following the release of his 1987 worldwide No. 1 single “Faith”, Michael reinvented his image, moving away from his bubbly Wham! persona in favour of a tougher, rock-and-roll aesthetic that defined his solo career.

The sunglasses formed a key part of that iconic look. Michael wore Ray-Ban 50s alongside his custom “Rockers BSA Revenge” leather jacket, ripped Levi’s jeans and silver-tipped cowboy boots in the “Faith” music video and throughout the 109-date Faith World Tour, making the sunglasses one of the most recognisable accessories associated with the era.

Believed to be one of only eight pairs acquired for the tour, this pair was donated by Michael to benefit the ITV Telethon ’88 charity auction and is accompanied by a “Faith George Michael” letter of authenticity confirming they were worn during the tour. Sunglasses with such direct provenance are exceptionally rare.

Propstore Auction

Currently, the estimated auction price for this piece of George Michael history is £15,000 – £30,000, with the current bidding at £12,000. Bidding for this lot will end on Thursday, October 1, 2026.

The 25 Live Era: The Elegant Emporio Armani Suit

Lot # 101. George Michael’s 25 Live Tour Black Emporio Armani Suit

Almost two decades after Faith, George Michael returned to the concert stage with 25 Live. The black Emporio Armani suit represents the mature and refined George.

A black Emporio Armani two-piece suit worn by George Michael during his acclaimed 25 Live Tour, a global series of 106 performances celebrating the artist’s 25-year career. The tour included Michael’s landmark concert on 9 June 2007, the first live performance held at the newly rebuilt Wembley Stadium. A letter of authenticity from Robobuild Limited confirms that Michael purchased suits of this type for both stage performances and personal use, with selected examples later donated for charity auction.

The suit comprises a black wool jacket and trousers with rayon lining. The jacket features three front buttons, three-button cuffs and welt pockets. Both garments retain interior Emporio Armani labels, and “2nd” is handwritten in black ink inside the trouser waistband. The lot displays minor marks and light pulls, resulting in small holes in places, and the lower front button is partially broken. The lot is accompanied by a letter of authenticity from Robobuild Limited, signed by a representative of the George Michael Estate.

Propstore Auction

Currently, the estimated auction price for this piece of George Michael history is £2,500 – £5,000, with the current bidding at £1,400. Bidding for this lot will end on Thursday, October 1, 2026.

The George Michael Style

From Ray-Ban sunglasses to Armani suits, George Michael’s style was always memorable. These two auction lots demonstrate how George Michael’s look became part of pop culture.

George Michael’s Faith Jacket Sells for £176,400: A Record Auction Moment

George Michael’s Faith “Rockers Revenge” leather jacket

The 2026 auction season delivered one of the most significant surges in George Michael memorabilia interest in recent years. Items spanning the Faith era, Wham!’s early touring years, and George’s later 25 Live period drew passionate bidding, record‑setting prices, and a renewed appreciation for the artistry, style, and cultural impact George carried through every phase of his career.

Below is a full breakdown of the confirmed hammer prices — a snapshot of a market that continues to grow, deepen, and reveal just how cherished George Michael remains.

The Crown Jewel: The Photo‑Matched “Faith” La Rocka Leather Jacket

Sold for £176,400 (21 bids)

Few garments in pop history are as instantly recognizable as George Michael’s black La Rocka leather jacket — the one he wore in the Faith music video and throughout the 1988 tour. This wasn’t just a jacket; it was the visual signature of an era.

The 2026 sale of the photo‑matched, screen‑verified jacket became the headline of the auction, soaring to £176,400 after 21 competitive bids. Its value reflects not only its rarity but its cultural weight: this is the jacket that helped define George’s transformation into a global solo icon.

Original BSA Artwork for the “Faith” Jacket

Sold for £1,386

Before the jacket became a symbol, it began as a design.
The original BSA artwork by Lloyd Johnson and Russell Tate — the creative blueprint behind the La Rocka jacket — sold for £1,386.

For collectors, this piece represents the conceptual DNA of the Faith aesthetic: bold, rebellious, and unmistakably George.

George Michael & Andrew Ridgeley–Signed Club Fantastic Tour Programme

Sold for £1,260

Wham!’s early touring years remain deeply nostalgic for fans, and signed items from this period are increasingly scarce.

The autographed Club Fantastic tour programme, signed by both George and Andrew, achieved £1,260, underscoring the enduring affection for the duo’s early energy and camaraderie.

Rockarchive Limited Edition Faith Tour Photo Shoot Print (Chris Cuffaro, 1988)

Sold for £819

Chris Cuffaro’s photography has become synonymous with the Faith era’s visual legacy.

This limited edition 1988 print, part of the Rockarchive collection, sold for £819, reflecting the growing collector demand for authenticated, artist‑approved photographic works from George’s most iconic period.

Autographed Faith LP + Diet Coke Commercial Call Sheet

Sold for £1,260

Pairing a signed Faith LP with a production call sheet from George’s Diet Coke commercial created a unique collectible.

The lot sold for £1,260, appealing to fans who appreciate both the music and the broader cultural footprint George left across media.

25 Live Tour Custom Giorgio Armani Suit

Sold for £6,930

George’s 25 Live wardrobe is beloved for its elegance and craftsmanship, and this custom metallic‑fabric Giorgio Armani suit drew significant attention.

Selling for £6,930, it stands as one of the strongest results for post‑2000 stage‑worn George Michael fashion — a testament to the tour’s emotional resonance and George’s enduring style.

Rockarchive Artist’s Proofs: Faith Music Video & Tour Prints (Chris Cuffaro)

Sold for £1,386

This pair of artist’s proof prints from Cuffaro’s Faith music video and tour sessions sold for £1,386, matching the price of the jacket artwork.

Artist’s proofs are especially prized for their rarity and direct connection to the photographer’s creative process.

“Careless Whisper” First Cut Vinyl + Negatives & Photographic Prints

Sold for £2,835

One of the most historically significant lots, this set included:

  • a six‑minute first cut vinyl of “Careless Whisper,”
  • nine strips of original negatives, and
  • four photographic prints.

Selling for £2,835, the lot offered a rare glimpse into George’s early solo artistry and the visual documentation surrounding one of the most enduring ballads of the 1980s.

A Market That Reflects a Legacy

The 2026 auction results reveal a clear trend:
George Michael’s cultural impact is not only enduring — it is deepening.

From the record‑setting sale of the Faith jacket to the strong performance of photographic and tour‑worn items, collectors are increasingly valuing pieces that:

  • tell a story,
  • connect directly to George’s creative evolution, and
  • capture the emotional resonance of his music and image.

For longtime fans and new collectors alike, these sales reaffirm what the world has always known:
George Michael’s artistry continues to inspire, captivate, and live on — not just in music, but in the objects and images that shaped his legacy.

George Michael’s Faith “Rockers Revenge BSA” Leather Jacket Auction

George Michael’s Faith “Rockers Revenge” leather jacket

The iconic Rockers Revenge leather jacket from George Michael’s Faith video is up for auction. It will be auctioned off on Thursday, April 30, 2026, at 3 p.m. (BST) / 10 a.m. (EDT) / 7 a.m. (PDT).

The starting bid will be £30,000, and it is estimated to be sold for £60,000 – £120,000.

According to the auction site:

Photo-matching confirms the jacket’s use both in the “Faith” music video and during live performances on the accompanying tour. Some shapes and wear patterns on the red “BSA” logo, small holes on the painted leaf detailing, and placement of studs on the reverse correspond to an image from the “Faith” video shoot, taken by Chris Cuffaro. Subsequent paint loss on the red lettering – now visible on the jacket today as larger worn areas – can be matched to a later Cuffaro photograph showing Michael mid-performance during the tour. Creasing on the lapel and distinctive traits in the leather near one of the chest zips align with additional Cuffaro images from the shoot, as well as a photograph taken by Michael Putland of Michael backstage during the Japanese/Australasian leg of the tour in February-March 1988. Two of Cuffaro’s prints showing this jacket are also included in this sale (see Lot 127).

Propstore Auction

Also, George Michael’s Faith leather jacket is the featured image on the cover of the auction catalog, available for £30.

Other George Michael items available for bidding are:
