I hope you are feeling flamboyant guys because Elton John is selling off his clobber for charity again. On 12th December the doors of ‘Out the Closet 2009’ in Covent Garden’s Flower Cellars will fling open and shoppers will have a once-in-a-lifetime chance, to get their hands on an array of Elton John and David Furnishes’ clothing collection, direct from their wardrobes.
From outfits worn by Elton on stage to David’s favourite Dior shirts, fans will have the opportunity to step into the shoes of the biggest stars in showbiz for real, as well as hand pick from their finest collection of clothes and accessories, including sunglasses, luggage and belts. Ranging from £10 to £2,000, the stock will feature labels such as Versace, Dior, Prada, McQueen, D&G and Jean Paul Gaultier.
100% of proceeds from sales will go to support the work on the Elton John AIDS Foundation. ‘Out the Closet 2009’ will be the fifth pop up shop, the last one on Regents Street in 2002, sold approximately 15,000 items and raised £400,000 for the Elton John AIDS Foundation.
Out The Closet will run alongside ‘A Very Merry Christmas’ in Covent Garden – a programme of free events and entertainment, including live reindeer on the Piazza, secret busking gigs by chart-topping acts (Athlete, Stereophonic, Jamie Cullum etc), Santa’s Grotto, Christmas food market, story telling by candlelight and much more.
