Gwyneth Paltrow is auctioning off her old designer clothes for a poverty charity.

The Shakespeare In Love star is having a clear-out at her north London home after relocating to Los Angeles while she films Iron Man 2.

And she's selling off 100 of her "most treasured things" in aid of the Robin Hood Foundation, which helps fight poverty in New York.

Boss of Flogit4u, Phillip Davies, who is overseeing the sale on auction website eBay, says, "Gwyneth is a neighbour of ours and is obviously familiar with what we do.

"She had a big clear-out of her wardrobe and wants to raise money for one of the charities she's involved in. There are some amazing pieces from Jimmy Choo to Lanvin to Balenciaga."

Principle photography on the Iron Man sequel got underway last week and Paltrow is set to reprise her role of Pepper Potts in the big screen version of the hit comic book.

The first movie of the franchise hit screens last summer and grossed over $582 million at the global box office.

Robert Downey Jr will reprise the role of Tony Stark while Don Cheadle has taken over the role of James Rhodes from Terrence Howard.

Mickey Rourke, Scarlett Johansson and Sam Rockwell are also joing the cast list.
