In this Wednesday, May 14, 2014 photo, British actress Michelle Dockery, stands with her Prada gown that she wore to the 2013 Emmy's, at Christie's auction rooms in London. "Downton Abbey" star Michelle Dockery is selling the eye-catching gown she wore to last year's Emmy Awards to help victims of the Syria civil war. Christie's auction house says the Prada dress, featuring a red halter-style top and burgundy skirt, will go under the hammer in London on June 20. Proceeds will go to humanitarian organization Oxfam. The gown is expected to fetch between 3,000 pounds and 5,000 pounds ($5,000 and $8,400). The actress, who plays Lady Mary in the costume drama, visited a Syrian refugee camp in Jordan last year.
