(MENAFN- EIN Presswire) EINPresswire/ -- In a first-of-its-kind partnership, ShopGoodwill ^® and acclaimed designer Evan Hirsch brought thrift to the runway for New York Fashion Week this September. Now, fashion lovers everywhere have the unique opportunity to own a piece of this historic moment: the chance to own the gowns that dazzled on the runway. Starting November 10, several pieces from the“Found Opulence” collection will be auctioned off on ShopGoodwill - a chance to bring a piece of the iconic NYFW stage into your closet.

Hirsch hand-selected 15 pieces from the collection to be shared exclusively with secondhand shoppers, and each will include a handwritten, personalized note from the designer himself. The looks will be listed for auction with a starting price of $99.99 for a two-week window, offering bidders the opportunity to own one-of-a-kind couture pieces at an affordable price. Proceeds from the auction will directly support Goodwill's mission to help people find sustainable career pathways, making every bid a step toward a stronger and brighter future.

The collaboration between Evan Hirsch and ShopGoodwill marks a groundbreaking moment in the world of sustainable fashion. This partnership was born from a shared commitment to creativity, accessibility, and social impact. By upcycling and transforming donated garments sourced through ShopGoodwill and brick-and-mortar Goodwill stores, Hirsch crafted couture pieces that not only celebrate individual style but also champion the values of reuse and community support.

“Designing for ShopGoodwill's debut at New York Fashion Week was a dream come true. Each piece tells a story of transformation and hope, and I'm thrilled these dresses will continue that journey by supporting Goodwill's life-changing work,” said Evan Hirsch.

On September 13 in the packed ballroom of 3 West Club, Goodwill's mission, secondhand garments and the artistry of high fashion converged on the runways of New York Fashion Week, showcasing how secondhand materials can be elevated to the highest levels of design. The partnership demonstrates ShopGoodwill and the broader Goodwill network's dedication to providing unique, affordable fashion while supporting workforce development and sustainable career pathways for people across the country.

“This auction is more than a sale-it's an invitation to own a piece of history and invest in brighter futures. We're proud to see the excitement from the runway extend to our ShopGoodwill community,” said George Burt, COO of ShopGoodwill.
