Richard Simmons’ Bedazzled Tank Tops and Memorabilia Hit Auction Block

Richard Simmons is getting one final standing ovation — this time from collectors and fans around the world as his personal items have hit the auction … TMZ has learned.

Bonhams Auction House in Los Angeles says it’s auctioning off over 200 of the famous fitness instructor’s personal items — bedazzled tank tops and branded VHS tapes to memorabilia from his workout empire. The collection celebrates Simmons’ four-decade legacy.

Among the star items hitting the block are his signature “Sweatin’ to the Oldies” ensemble, worn during a 2012 Slimmons class, a bedazzled “Hummingbird” tank top worn at the 2013 MTV VMAs, a custom “Pom Pom Ball” tank from a 2011 appearance and over 100 glittering tank tops and shorts, each estimated between $200-300.

Fans can also bid on nostalgic Simmons branded merchandise — including a portrait of Simmons and his Dalmatians by Frank Cummings, estimated at $800-1,200, the original “Slimmons” studio sign from his Beverly Hills gym, estimated at $500-700, and a group of his personal gym equipment, with bids expected around $200-300.
