We were curious which stars have raised the most money or donated the biggest ticket items to good causes. Keep reading for our Top Four List of Celebrity Clothing Donations – and maybe snag a few celeb-approved duds of your own next time.

Ellen Degeneres’ E-Bay Auction
From April 14 to May 8 2009, Ellen DeGeneres held an e-bay auction of items from her own wardrobe, and many from wardrobes of her guests. There were some exciting items up for grabs, including the navy blue blazer DeGeneres wore when President Obama paid her a visit – and even a sexy little dress that Heidi Klum stripped off in front of the audience!

In the 25 days the auction was open, Ellen sold over 75 pieces of clothing and accessories and raised thousands of dollars for the Humane Society of the Unites States.

Justin Bieber’s Lock of Hair
Just this month, an e-bay auction for a single lock of Justin Bieber’s hair closed at $40,668. You read that number correctly – over 40,000 dollars for a lock of discarded hair. But the lucky “Belieber” didn’t just receive a follicle – she (or he?) also snagged a Lucite box encapsulating it, signed by the teen heartthrob himself.

We’d never pay that much money for something so little, but we can’t complain, since every last penny of that price tag went directly to The Gentle Barn Foundation, an animal rescue nonprofit group.

Gwyneth Paltrow’s Spring Cleaning
Gwyneth may have kicked off the celebrity e-bay auction trend because she was the first starlet on the radar with her own personal auction site. Run through her own lifestyle website, GOOP, Gwyneth held a massive “Spring Cleaning” sale back in March and April 2009 and donated 100% of the proceeds to The Robin Hood Foundation, a nonprofit organization that aims to end poverty and homelessness in New York City.

Fashionistas who happened to be a size 4 or 6 dress – or a size 8.5 or 9 shoe – managed to score mega deals on Gwyneth’s fabulous Balenciaga cocktail dresses and luxurious quilted Chanel handbags.

Clothes Off Our Back
Although it’s not a single auction or article of clothing, Clothes Off Our Back – founded by Jane Kaczmarek (of “Malcom in the Middle” fame) and Bradley Whitford (from “The West Wing”) in 2002 – receives a slot on our list. Since its inception, the 501c3 organization has raised funds well into the millions for children’s causes. Not to mention, the nonprofit manages to get its hands on the hottest items – from Screen Actors Guild Awards tickets to Natalie Portman-autographed “Black Swan” and “Star Wars” gear. It’s no wonder why COOB is such a fundraising rockstar!

So there you have it. Plenty of celebritites love sharing their wealth and good fortune with the masses. And after all, what could be better than scoring star-approved designer duds at deep discounts – for a good cause? If there’s a notable donation we excluded from this list, tell us about it in the comments below!

Hollywood’s funny men, the Wayans Brothers have partnered up with NorthStar Moving Corporation and The Clothes Off Our Back Foundation, as they donated their clothes and stuff for sale at the Foundation’s site on www.clothesoffourback.org. NothStar Moving Corporation, the leading eco-luxurymover in California, delivers fashion and lifestyle items from their famous clients to the Clothes Off Our Back Foundation, an organization that hosts charity auctions featuring the hottest Hollywood stars attire. The proceeds of the Wayans Brothers auction will go to Feeding America, The Art of Elysium, Hope North and H.E.L.P. Malawi.

Michel Schneider, Executive Director of the Clothes Off Our Back Foundation stated:

“We are very thankful to the Wayans Brothers and NorthStar Moving for their generous clothing donation to our foundation. Since 2002, the Clothes Off Our Back Web site has become a portal for celebrity clothing and memorabilia that raises money for various causes around the globe. We are happy to continue our fundraising with these great partners.”

The Wayans brothers just premiered their newest movie “Dance Flick”, and although the movie gets mixed reviews, we do know that their good deed will be put to good use. Bid on their auction to participate in the charity at the Foundation’s website, win, look good and eventually feel good.  The Wayans Brothers’  items are only up for grabs until Tuesday, June 9 at 5 p.m. PDT.

The Clothes Off Our Back Foundation was founded by actors Jane Kaczmarek from “Malcolm In The Middle” and Bradley Whitford of “The West Wing”, who are also philanthropist, along with their celebrity and designer friends. The foundation have helped in improving children’s lives cross the globe.

Sienna Miller’s got every reason to smile ‘cos her designs rocked the runway.  We’ve featured some of the best celebrity designers’ work at the New York Fashion Week 2009, and now we headed for London and found the quirks in actress Sienna Miller’s Twenty8Twelve Fall ’09 Collection.  Here are our three favorites.

Sienna and Savannah Miller put their immaculate minimalist taste into a seemingly general designwork, but actually they are done in very particular cutting and detailing.  Compared to another celebrity designer sisters, Penelope and Monica Cruz, Sienna and Savannah’s designs are quite less intricate, but still shows a thoughtful concept. What we couldn’t help but wonder is how casual the whole line look, yet how easy they will seem to blend in formal ocassions.

We got some fabulous Twenty8Twelve selections that are available to purchase online, right this minute.

A gorgeous Plus Cuff from Elizabeth and James, which is exclusively designed by star twins Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen.

And who knew Justin Timberlake could design so well for his William Rast women’s line? Check out this sexy William Rast Savoy Ultra Low Rise Trouser Jean.  We think it’s a winter must-have.

If we were fashion doctors, consider this our prescription!

From the elegant taste of Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen, here’s Elizabeth and James’ Lucinda Dress.  What’s cool about this dress is that you can wear it any way you please.  From boat neck, to Sabrina neck, to asymmetric toga style, or with a huge belt and go ‘batwing’ look like they did in the 70′s, the choice is yours!

Next, from the quirky L.A.M.B. collection that truly reflects its celebrity designer’s taste in fun but stylish clothes, Gwen Stefani, we have the Twiggy Plaid Coat.  Wear it with the right attitude and people will think you’re related to England’s Royal Family.

And last but not least, the newest TV personality to add her success in the fashion world, Lauren Conrad.  We like her collection as they are done with taste, albeit some which we’ve seen before.  But this time, Lauren scored with a simple white cardigan with a layered effect on the front. It’s so elegant for winter and we couldn’t resist getting it with the 30% off from Shopbop!
