Knightley Donates Gown to Oxfam

Keira Knightley has donated the claret-colored gown that she wore for this year’s Oscars to Oxfam. The gown, created by Vera Wang, will be up for auction on Ebay beginning April 21 and ending on April 30. Proceeds raised by the auction will go towards the East African food crisis appeal.

Knightley says she is pleased to be able to donate the dress to Oxfam, and adds, “I have seen the TV reports on the horrendous drought in East Africa and I know how desperate things have become, so I am happy to be able to do something to help.”
