Rick Owens Jeans
For fans of Rick Owens, this pair of dark destroyed DRKSHDW jeans (original price in New York was 375 $) is a must: the fabric looks fantastic-as if you have owned it since forever- they fit like a dream (thanks to the extra seams that run diagonally at the front along the thighs) and they're superlong so you can wear them with your highest heels. The jeans are brand new and come with all labels and tags attached. This item is donated. All proceeds will benefit Designers Against Aids Foundation. Buy & Help!

Jimmy Choo Handbag
The best bag from the recent line Jimmy Choo designed for H&M, but a little too ladylike for me, so I'm selling it to benefit 'Designers against AIDS. This black nappa leather handbag with snake print details and fringes plus a gold coloured zipper is huge and looks very elegant- and it's about 20% of the price of a main line Jimmy Choo. All tags are still attached, the bag hasn't been used. This item is donated. All proceeds will benefit Designers Against Aids Foundation. Buy & Help!

Number (N)ine Coat
This amazing coat made of black wool satin is one of the last designs of Takahiro Miyashita for his Japanese label Number (N)ine, that stopped last year. He designed for both men and women and because of the narrow fit many women also both his men's clothes (same thing happened with Dior Homme when Hedi Slimane still designed there). The coat has a Mao collar, countless covered buttons at the front, 2 flap pockets at the front, many darts and seams and a vent with covered buttons at the back, much like a tail coat. The entire black cotton lining is printed with music notes and the coat sleeves have 3 working buttons. This item is donated. All proceeds will benefit Designers Against Aids Foundation. Buy & Help!

Viktor & Rolf Pants
When Viktor & Rolf did their collection for H&M it created a stampede in the stores. I managed to buy some pieces then, one of which is this silk boxer short, that has never been worn because I bought it a size too large in the middle of all that shopping madness. The boxer shorts are made of 100% silk, have an embroidered heart on the front and two cute ribbons at the sides. All the labels etc are intact. This item is donated. All proceeds will benefit Designers Against Aids Foundation. Buy & Help!
