“We know that our shoppers want choice – including access to the newest looks from today’s hottest designers,” said Hal Lawton, SVP of eBay North America. “eBay is making it even easier for people to shop incredible items from style icons like Rachel Zoe – delivering in-demand merchandise at extraordinary value, directly to their fingertips.”

Back to School and Work in Style

The limited edition backpacks with Rachel Zoe prints will be sold exclusively on eBay beginning September 9 at 8 a.m. PST, at a price point of $45, with free shipping included. All proceeds from the sale will benefit Save the Children, Rachel’s philanthropic organization of choice, through the eBay for Charity platform.

“One of the best parts of my job is empowering people to make choices that reflect their personal style. This is why I was so excited to design two exclusive prints for eBay’s Summer of Choice campaign, which gives shoppers the chance to vote for their favorite,” said Rachel Zoe, Creative Director of Rachel Zoe Collection. “I am equally thrilled that with this initiative we are able to give back to children in need—with each backpack purchased, 100% of the proceeds will support Save the Children, a cause that is very close to my heart.”
