TROOP BEVERLY HILLS (1989) - Phyllis Nefler's (Shelley Long) Wilderness Girl Uniform Costume - Phyllis Nefler's (Shelley Long) Wilderness Girl uniform from Jeff Kanew's Troop Beverly Hills. Nefler had her Wilderness Girl troop leader uniform tailored and wore it to her first meeting to the dismay of scout leader Velda Plendor (Betty Thomas). Nefler wore a variety of tailored uniforms throughout the film, such as a capelet and jacket, as well as a skirt and a pair of khaki pants.

Having gained new fans from repeated airings on the Disney Channel in the 1990s, this film is evocative of the 1980s and features a subtle feminist message that has endeared itself to audiences leading it to become a cult classic film.

Originating from Butterfield & Butterfield's Western Costume Star Collection Part II auction on July 17th 1994, this costume, which was custom-made for the film, consists of a khaki wool garrison cap hemmed in emerald green with a faux diamond and emerald brooch; a khaki wool jacket hemmed in emerald green and lined with satin; a khaki satin button-up shirt; an emerald green satin necktie; and a khaki wool skirt. The interior of the shirt and skirt feature Western Costume Co. makers labels and hand-marked with "101971" and "1020005." The bottom hem of the shirt was removed by production to allow for a more tailored fit. This costume exhibits snagged, frayed threads and pin holes.

Estimate: $3,000 - 6,000
