This Pride Month, Elton John is giving fans a special opportunity to own a piece of his legendary wardrobe.

The 77-year-old music icon is partnering with eBay to auction a personal collection of his pre-loved fashion pieces. The "Rocket Man Resale" offers hundreds of pieces of clothing, shoes and accessories from John's archives, including bespoke Gucci jackets, Versace robes, customized Prada loafers, as well as historic concert T-shirts and baseball caps.

“The Rocket Man Resale shop on eBay allows everyone the opportunity to access unique pieces that bring the wow-factor such as my favourite bathrobe designed by my incredibly talented friend, Donatella Versace," John tells PEOPLE exclusively. "Explore my pre-loved collection and give them new life in your own wardrobe. I can't wait to see how you'll make them uniquely yours!”
