Today, we’re looking at an unusual sale by an absolute icon to benefit a truly worthy cause. One of my lifetime idols, Sir Elton John, has decided to sell some things he wasn’t using, including costumes, luxury-brand clothing, concert memorabilia, jewelry, housewares, and a truly random selection of other items. The sale also includes fashion from the musician and his friends such as Dolly Parton, Donatella Versace, Brandi Carlile, Andy Cohen, and Betsey Johnson. All these items – and there are more than a thousand of them – are being sold on eBay, with 100% of the proceeds going to the Elton John AIDS Foundation.
“Giving new life to the cherished items from my wardrobe has always been special to me. For decades I’ve donated my closet’s treasures to support the Elton John AIDS Foundation. This Pride Month, I’m excited to share my Atlanta treasure trove on eBay, hoping these items will inspire you to express your unique spirit and bring you as much joy as they’ve brought me. Whether you’re after high-end luxury or something more laid-back, there’s a perfect find for everyone. Even better, every dollar goes to supporting the Elton John AIDS Foundation’s work to end LGBTQ+ stigma.”
Originally intended to run for only 10 days from June 27 through July 7, 2024, Sir Elton has continued listing items, so the inventory for the sales and auctions continues.
You can see Sir Elton’s pre-loved items up for sale/auction in the Elton John AIDS Foundation eBay shop, and you can follow the Foundation on their website and on Instagram, YouTube, and Facebook.

Worthy cause! I guess even the rich and famous feel a need to “declutter” from time to time.

I’m glad he’s donating rather than selling (or tossing).

So many tracksuits! I have loved Elton John’s music since I was tiny wee and I love that he is raising money for such a worthy cause by decluttering.

Me too! He’s adorable, even if his taste is a little loud for me.
