    Elton John and David Furnish are opening their wardrobe doors to the public this weekend, to raise money for charity

    Elton John and David Furnish are clearing out their closets this weekend - all in the name of charity.

    The megabucks duo open their wardrobe doors once every five years, and hold one serious second-hand sale - to benefit the Elton John Aids Foundation.

    The pop-up shop, called Out of the Closet, will be open in Covent Garden tomorrow for one week only - and will include everything from Elton's stagewear, to David's favourite shirts.

    And with prices ranging from £10, to a whopping £2,000, there's something to cater for every budget.

    Brands on offer include Versace, D&G, Alexander McQueen, Prada and Dior - to name but a few - with everything from clothing, accessories, sunglasses and luggage available for the public to browse.

    Plus, it might be worth having your celeb-spotting hat on - as previous guests to the pop-up shop include Elle Macpherson, Natalie Imbruglia and Liz Hurley.

    With the store raising £400,000 for the charity back in 2002, we reckon it's a great place to pick up some one-off Christmas pressies!

    Out of the Closet will be open from 12-19 December. The shop will be restocked daily.

    Out of the Closet, Flower Cellars, 8-12 Russell Street, Covent Garden, London WC2.
