Paris Hilton opened up her Y2K closet for a good cause.
On Wednesday, Feb. 19, the DJ and heiress, 44, announced on Instagram that she was teaming up with Vestiaire Collective to sell some of her “iconic pre-loved pieces” as she gave her followers a glimpse into her incredible wardrobe.
“Net proceeds will go to my charity @11.11media Impact 🥰,” Hilton wrote alongside the post, with CNN reporting that the proceeds will be distributed to wildfire charities via Hilton’s nonprofit organization following the devastating wildfires that started in Los Angeles last month.
And less than a day after launching the closet sale, Vestiaire Collective confirmed in a post on their Instagram Stories on Feb. 19 that the collection had already sold out.
The nearly 100 listed items included a purple velour Juicy Couture tracksuit and a Louis Vuitton “Chrissie” cloth handbag.
Along with her pal Nicole Richie, Hilton had a huge influence on early 2000s fashion, with The Simple Life star regularly snapped wearing iconic aughts pieces including Von Dutch hats, low-rise jeans and Moon Boots.
“It was so out there and so extra,” Hilton told Glamour in December 2024 of her Y2K looks. “It was the most fun time in fashion.”
In a statement about the sale, per CNN, Hilton said, “This sale will support my charity’s work around relief efforts for the devastating LA fires and our ongoing mission to protect vulnerable youth from child abuse and bring hope to those in need.”

“I can’t think of a better way to combine my greatest passions, fashion and charity, than with a closet sale,” she added.
Hilton herself was impacted by the fires and lost her Malibu home in the Palisades blaze. In an Instagram post on Jan. 8, the media personality revealed that she learned of the loss while watching the fires unfold on live television.
“Heartbroken beyond words.💔 Sitting with my family, watching the news, and seeing our home in Malibu burn to the ground on live TV is something no one should ever have to experience,” Hilton began in the caption.

Despite her loss, Hilton letting fans shop her wardrobe isn’t the only way she has helped those impacted by the fires.
Days after losing her property, the mom of two launched an emergency fund for fire victims and donated $100,000. She also fostered a dog named Zuzu from animal shelter Pasadena Humane after the pooch’s family lost their home in Altadena.
