    McQueen, Christian Louboutin and Westwood have teamed up with Harvey Nichols to produce one-off handbags to celebrate the Campaign for Wool

    Handbag lovers, listen up! Designers, including McQueen, Christian Louboutin and Westwood, have teamed up with Harvey Nichols to produce one-off handbags to celebrate the Campaign for Wool.

    When we heard Alexander McQueen, Vivienne Westwood, Christian Louboutin, Anya Hindmarch, Smythson, Sang A and Quentin McKay had all each produced a one-off collector’s handbag for charity we logged straight on to eBay.

    The collection, which was curated by Harvey Nichols and their London Knightsbridge store in celebration of The Campaign for Wool, has been launched on eBay for auction until 30 September. Yes, that means just three days left to bid to get your hands on one of these beauties.

    The campaign, launched by The Prince of Wales, aims to educate consumers about the benefits of wool and support the industry, with all funds raised helping to secure a sustainable future for British agriculture.

    If you’re not one of the lucky winners the handbag collection can be viewed at the Harvey Nichols Knightsbridge store until next week.
