Did you see Loewe’s I Told Ya shirt inspired by Challengers and sigh because you cannot justify paying $330 for a cotton tee? What if I told you that you can snag on the same shirt but better, specifically the one that Zendaya wore in the movie? Right now, several props and costumes from Luca Guadagnino’s sexy tennis movie are currently available to bid on at VIP Fan Auctions. It does ruin the illusion a little that the actual shirt in the movie isn’t Loewe but a J. Crew shirt with iron letters. The package set does come with the onscreen shirt, Adidas, and shorts from the scene, plus a certificate of authenticity. Other Zendaya worn pieces include her vintage Juicy hoodie, where the scene it was worn in was described as “when she went to Art and Patrick’s hotel room after her party.†Sure, that’s all that happened.

Now, what about the boys? You can bid on both Josh O’Connor and Mike Faist’s wigs — yeah, some of those luscious locks weren’t real — and broken rackets. The auction ends in less than a week, which is plenty of time to come up with reasons as to why you had to buy Patrick Zweig’s sweaty tennis fit or his used water bottle.
