Victoria Beckham auctions tour outfits for charity

29 May 2008  

VICTORIA BECKHAM is auctioning off her glittering collection of outfits from the SPICE GIRLS world tour in a bid to raise $2 million (£1 million) for charity.
 
The style icon is putting all six of her Roberto Cavalli-designed costumes from the band's comeback tour earlier this year (08) to raise funds for a children's charity, which is managed by her mum Jackie Adams.
 
The items being sold include a minidress covered in Swarovski crystals, thought to be worth $500,000 (£250,000), and the infamous gold corset and leggings the star wore, which are going under the hammer for $60,000 (£30,000).
 
A spokesman for Beckham says, "Victoria is putting together various ideas for the sale. She would consider offers from individuals - for the right price. It's time for any high-rollers out there to get their cheque books out."
 
The details of the charity auction have not been announced, but the former Spice Girl has reportedly flown the items to a safe storage facility in the U.K., according to Britain's OK! magazine.
