Rosie Huntington-Whiteley links with Vestiaire Collective for exclusive closet sale
Luxury resale platform Vestiaire Collective has linked up with model and actress Rosie Huntington-Whiteley for an exclusive closet sale, in support of The King's Trust UK charity.
Launching on Friday (2 May) at 5pm BST, the sale will feature over 40 selected pieces from her personal wardrobe, sourced from her homes in London and Los Angeles.
Her personal fashion pieces include sculptural Khaite knits, tailoring from Celine, Alaia pieces and staples from Gucci and Dolce & Gabbana, with the edit 'showcasing elevated classics in Rosie's signature minimalist style, offering fans and fashion enthusiasts a unique opportunity to own items from her wardrobe', says Vestiaire Collective.
Fanny Moizant, co-founder and president of the resale giant, said: 'This initiative aligns with our commitment to disrupt traditional fashion consumption habits. Through high-impact partnerships with individuals who share our values, we aim to inspire a global movement towards responsible luxury shopping.
'By partnering with global icons like Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, [we continue] to reinforce [our] leadership in the pre-loved luxury space, proving that second-hand fashion can be just as desirable as new."
Huntington-Whiteley added: 'Fashion has always been a meaningful part of my career, and I love that this collaboration allows me to extend that impact while contributing to a cause that helps young people build their futures.'
She joins other influential figures featuring in its exclusive closet sales including Paris Hilton, Jessica Chastain, Laura Dern, and Chloe Finemans.
Net proceeds will go directly to The King's Trust UK, the non-profit organisation dedicated to helping young people from disadvantaged backgrounds.

Vestiaire Collective celebrates vintage with special focus on iconic pieces
Peer-to-peer resale giant Vestiaire Collective is celebrating vintage this month with the launch of Vintage Days (an activation dedicated to the timeless appeal of archival fashion) and its permanent Archive Room debut. The main Vintage Days activation only runs until 7 June but is a major campaign for the e-tailer that's bringing together 'nostalgia, celebrity style, and curated collections to spotlight the vintage pieces that continue to define fashion today'. It said that with hundreds of thousands of vintage items available on the platform, it offers 'one of the largest and most diverse vintage assortment[s]. To help navigate this unmatched archive, the platform features a dedicated vintage search filter, the only one of its kind among resale players, making it easier than ever for shoppers to find vintage treasures, from runway-era icons to cult Y2K collectibles'. And the specific focus on vintage until the weekend sees it 'celebrating the cultural significance and emotional power of archival fashion, from iconic red carpet looks to pieces that defined entire style eras'. 'As demand for vintage continues to grow, our goal is to make these timeless pieces easier to find, shop, and fall in love with again,' said Sophie Hersan, co-founder and fashion director. The curated edits include TV-inspired pieces that draw from iconic looks from cult '90s and 2000s shows like Sex and the City, 90210 Beverly Hills, Friends, and Gossip Girl. It features labels like Vivienne Westwood, Jean Paul Gaultier, Prada, Alaïa, Dior, and Dolce & Gabbana. There's also a special edit of 500 vintage pieces under £500, plus one-of-a-kind pieces 'previously worn by celebrities, tastemakers, and fashion insiders'. The company said: 'From Bella Hadid 's iconic Christian Dior FW 2000 leopard slip dress to Kim Kardashian in head-to-toe Chanel SS 1995 tweed set, and Lena Mahfouf in classic Chanel SS 2002 mini dress, Vestiaire gives shoppers access to the world's largest vintage collection.' And the launch of its 'Archive Room' is all about 'a dedicated account on the platform gathering archive pieces curated by Vestiaire Collective and previously worn by influencers around the world'. It's a permanent seller account on Vestiaire Collective debuting with 58 handpicked pieces. The e-tailer said it has seen a 220% increase in supply and 5x growth in vintage searches over the past five years.

Demna unveils his final ready-to-wear collection for Balenciaga
Hoodies, oversized puffer jackets, baggy trousers, long coats, distressed or washed denim — Demna has unveiled his final ready-to-wear collection for Balenciaga, a curated synthesis of his 10-year tenure at the Kering -owned fashion house. The collection serves as a manifesto, or a parting statement, as the designer prepares to leave the Parisian label in July, following his last couture show, to take the helm at Gucci, the group's flagship brand. The Georgian-born, German-based designer (whose full name is Demna Gvasalia) has reshaped Balenciaga's image over the past decade, bringing it firmly into the 21st century with a blend of luxury streetwear and tailored silhouettes featuring exaggerated proportions. For spring 2026, he presents 48 looks. The lineup spans sculptural, tailored pieces that reinterpret Cristóbal Balenciaga's signature curves and a sportier, street-inspired wardrobe marked by oversized volumes, reworked vintage items and an anti-establishment spirit that defines the designer's approach. These elements contrast sharply with the refined, romantic style of Pierpaolo Piccioli, who will succeed him. The collection features pieces drawn from 35 past collections, new designs and garments from the designer's personal wardrobe. 'They represent the volumes, silhouettes and attitudes that have shaped my vision and exploration of contemporary wardrobe — what people really wear, how they wear it, and the line between luxury and fashion,' Demna explains in a letter-style statement, describing the collection as 'a return to my roots after all these years.' The collection unmistakably evokes Vetements, the brand Demna founded in 2014 and left in 2019. It also suggests the potential direction Gucci might take in the coming months — reimagining the Italian house's classics through a radical contemporary lens and elevating everyday pieces into a new form of luxury through an ongoing exploration of wardrobe archetypes. 'My work at Balenciaga, and in general, has often revolved around the anthropology of fashion and dress codes,' Demna notes. To visually reinforce this theme, he collaborated with photographer Ari Versluis and profiler-stylist Ellie Uyttenbroek. The Dutch duo, whose project Exactitudes (also the title of this collection) has strongly influenced Demna's styling, have spent years photographing and categorizing individuals across various socio-cultural groups based on their clothing and style. Demna first discovered their work while studying at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp. Over the years, he has continued to explore the concept of social uniforms and how individuals personalize their clothing. The work of Versluis and Uyttenbroek has left a lasting imprint on his fashion approach. Speaking about this final collection, the artistic director highlights this influence: 'It marks the end of a beautiful era that I wanted to capture and celebrate by creating the 'Balenciaga archetypes' — the people, silhouettes, atmosphere and ideas that have all been fundamental to my work for this incredible house.' At the same time, the brand is launching a music collaboration with Britney Spears as part of its Balenciaga Music project, which began in 2020. The project offers Balenciaga clients access to curated musical content, including playlists compiled by Demna and various artists, along with a capsule collection. Inspired by the American pop star's concert aesthetic, the collection features a limited edition of T-shirts, zip-up hoodies and caps adorned with Spears' autograph and archival imagery, finished with vintage-inspired treatments that resemble classic album merchandise. The project also includes an exclusive playlist created by the pop icon and two remixes of her most iconic tracks by BFRND, the stage name of musician Loïk Gomez — Demna's husband — who has composed the soundtracks for all Balenciaga runway shows. Before unveiling his couture collection and moving on to Milan, the designer will receive one final tribute in Paris during men's fashion week with an exhibition titled Balenciaga by Demna, which will run from June 26 to July 9 at Kering's headquarters on Rue de Sèvres.
