British model, actress, and entrepreneur Rosie Huntington-Whiteley has collaborated with Vestiaire Collective, a luxury fashion platform, in organizing a special sale where Rosie will be auctioning off curated pieces from her closet to help raise funds for The King's Trust UK.
The closet sale will commence on May 2 and will feature over 40 items from Rosie's own wardrobe, which she has collected from her residences in London and Los Angeles, from noteworthy brands.
All the money earned from the sale will directly benefit The King's Trust UK. This charity provides young people from disadvantaged backgrounds the confidence and tools they need to thrive in life, school, and work.
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley says she is thrilled about this venture: "I'm thrilled to work with Vestiaire Collective to support The King's Trust UK. This platform is perfect for giving my clothing a second life in a stylish and sustainable way." She added that fashion has always been very dear to her, and she loves that this project allows her to make a real difference in the lives of young people.
Besides, Vestiaire Collective is slowly shifting focus towards celebrity closet sales, primarily to attract new customers to its website while also promoting responsible fashion. Co-founder and president Fanny Moizant said that this is very much in tune with the idea of changing the way people buy fashion.
She said, "By partnering with individuals who share our values, we hope to inspire a global movement for responsible luxury shopping."
In conclusion, this collaboration between Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Vestiaire Collective is not just about fashion. It also supports a great cause that helps young people build a better future.
