It's been nearly 40 years since Ferris Bueller cut class in Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Now, the geometric pattern sweater vest worn by actor Matthew Broderick is up for sale via Sotheby's New York. Pre-sale estimates range from $300,000 to $600,000. In the movie, Ferris' skip day includes the teen lip-syncing in a Chicago parade. But Ferris' vest was not originally a vest at all.
According to Sotheby's, costume designer Marilyn Vance found a sweater and cut the sleeves off. Online bidding continues through June 24th. For NPR News, I'm Courtney Kippers in Chicago.

That pill spawned a global movement, helping millions of women have safe abortions, regardless of the law. Hear that story on the network, from NPR's Embedded and Futuro Media, wherever you get your podcasts.
