The King’s Trust, Trinny Woodall and eBay are uniting to launch the Ultimate Designer Sale – an exclusive two-day fashion event in support of the Trust’s Change a Girl’s Life campaign, helping young women facing adversity across the UK build bright futures.
Shoppers will have the rare opportunity to buy pieces donated by celebrity style icons including Elizabeth Hurley, Dame Helen Mirren, Nicky Hilton Rothschild, Dame Joanna Lumley, Gillian Anderson, Adot Gak, Fearne Cotton and Rochelle Humes – with many more to be announced.
Alongside these one-of-a-kind donations, the event will feature new and pre-loved designer fashion from top brands such as Chanel, Jil Sander, Balenciaga, Zimmerman, Jimmy Choo, Prada, Mulberry and more. Tickets are selling fast – buy here.
Can’t make it in person? eBay will stream an exclusive eBay Live Auction on 9th October at 6:30pm, hosted by Trinny Woodall and Gaby Roslin. Fashion fans can bid and shop in real time on standout pieces including:
- A shearling coat worn by Claudia Winkleman on TV’s The Traitors
- A signed dress from Paris Hilton
- Donations from Gillian Anderson, Nicky Hilton Rothschild, Adot Gak and Fearne Cotton
- A selection from Trinny’s personal wardrobe, plus designer shoes and handbags
A further selection of items will be available via the King’s Trust eBay store during and after the event.
Recent research from The King’s Trust revealed over half (58 per cent) of unemployed young women feel hopeless about their future, with a third (32 per cent) feeling they are going to fail in life. The Trust supports young women to gain skills, confidence and practical experience on their journey to employment, as well as providing mentorship and practical help such as covering childcare and travel costs.
I am delighted to launch this Ultimate Designer Sale in aid of the Change a Girl’s Life campaign for The King’s Trust. I am so proud to support its work helping young women who are most in need to build the skills and confidence to have brighter futures. Taking place at the Vinyl Factory in Soho, and in conjunction with eBay, people can come and discover items from some formidable brands, as well as from the incredible wardrobes of our celebrity supporters – all at discounted prices, for a phenomenal cause.

We’re incredibly proud to be partnering with The King’s Trust and Trinny Woodall on the Ultimate Designer Sale – a fashion-forward initiative that combines style with purpose. As the home of pre-loved branded fashion, eBay is championing circularity by giving quality items a second life, and this event perfectly demonstrates how resale can make designer fashion more accessible while supporting a meaningful cause. Whether shopping in person or online through our dedicated eBay store, customers will not only discover exceptional designer pieces but also help support young women across the UK to build brighter futures.
