Elton John announced he was auctioning off his personal wardrobe (not to be confused with his stage wear) on eBay for the Elton John Aids Foundation, and is aligned with Pride month.
As you might imagine, his collection includes some pretty wild designer duds. Naturally, there are tons of Gucci and Versace shirts and dressing gowns, Adidas tracksuits, and sparkly tour T-shirts.
A Versace jacket with lyrics from Elton John and Bernie Taupin already has 13 bids.
As well, The Rocket Man is asking his designer friends to pitch in and donate items.
Donatella Versace already contributed a Versace two-piece of pastel-coloured chain mail with safety pins. ($510 is the highest bid so far.)
We have an eye on the Gucci Floral Embroidered Leather Jacket, but the bid is already over $700.

In a statement, John said he hoped the items would “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 pound goes to supporting the Elton John Aids Foundation’s work to end LGBTQ+ stigma.”
