The outfit due to be worn by Hollywood star Angelina Jolie at Sunday's Oscar ceremony has been stolen from the designer's car in London.
British designer Scott Henshall said the dress, along with jewellery, accessories and other gowns earmarked for guests at the awards show in Los Angeles, had been stolen from his car in the upmarket Knightsbridge area of London on Wednesday evening.
"There is no way I can remake Angelina's or any other dresses in time," he said.
"There were 20 outfits in the collection and now the nine most glamorous have gone."
Jolie's outfit was described as a £3,000 pound body-hugging corset dress decorated with cherubs.
