Comic Relief suits appeal

articlemain

Photographer Richard Cannon has embarked on a unique project for Comic Relief.

Mr Cannon, who has photos on show in the National Portrait Gallery, persuaded the menswear designer Oswald Boateng to donate a white suit.

Then he asked as many comedians as possible to wear it and sign the jacket lining. So far 25 funny men and women have donned the suit, including Dave Gorman (right) and David Baddiel (far right). Other wearers include Hugh Dennis, Al Murray, Frank Skinner, and Stephen Merchant.

From now until March 20, you can bid on the Comic Relief eBay auction. The winner will get the signed suit, a portrait gallery of all the comics, and a chance to wear the suit and have a photo session with Mr Cannon.
