POP/ROCK - July 19, 1988

Someone stole a dress worn by Madonna in the “True Blue” video sometime over the weekend. The heist of the powder-blue chiffon with long, bow-adorned sleeves occurred at a suburban Detroit shopping mall, Novi, Mich., police said, from an exhibit called “MTV’s Museum of Unnatural History.” Among items the thief bypassed were a napkin signed by Elvis Presley, a fan letter written by Paul McCartney during his Beatle days, the seashell costume worn by Elton John on his 1985 concert tour and a jacket worn by Mick Jagger. Exhibit manager Chuck Lutz said he just wants the dress returned--no questions asked and no charges pressed.
