Two of late singer Amy Winehoue's dresses have been stolen from the London home where she died in 2011.

The anchor-pattern minidress the soul star wore on her wedding day in 2006 and a Moschino frock she once sported onstage were taken from her house in the Camden borough of the UK capital.

The iconic items, worth a combined $208,000 (£130,000), were due to be auctioned in New York later this year to raise money for the Amy Winehouse Foundation, and her dad Mitch admits he's heartbroken by the loss.

He tells Britain's The Sun, "It's a blow. It's sickening that someone would steal something in the knowledge of its sentimental value."

Mitch fears other items stored in the tragic star's house may have also gone missing.

He adds, "The house in Camden is being sold so all of her possessions have been tagged, numbered and logged in preparation of storage. There was a window of about two days while that process was underway when the dresses could have been taken.

"A few people were involved and there was some coming and going. We're going through everything else to see what else, if anything, has been lifted. We are all baffled as to why some of her designer dresses didn't go too. There were a couple from Dolce & Gabbana worth a fortune. Her wedding dress was only a little cotton thing, a hundred quid (pounds) at best in the shops. Whoever nicked (stole) it realised its significance and knew it had an extra value."

Amy died from alcohol poisoning in July, 2011.
