OUTLANDER fans are being given the chance to get up close and personal with lead star Sam Heughan....or at least his clothes.

The actor has donated a black pin stripe Aquascutum suit jacket, white Ralph Lauren wool jumper and Black Volley deck shoes to raise charity cash.

A host of celebrities have gifted clothes to raise funds for their chosen cause and encourage the public to share or donate clothes they no longer need.

Fans can be the proud new owners of the clothing worn by their idols by bidding in the charity eBay auctions.

Other items donated include a brown suede suit worn by Belle & Sebastian's Stevie Jackson in two of the band's videos and a a black and white striped Yves Saint Laurent t-shirt belonging to

Ross McNae from rock band Twin Atlantic.

The celebrities donated the items earlier this year as part of Pass it on Week - Scotland's annual event, run by Zero Waste Scotland, to encourage everyone to keep things in use for as long as possible.

John Amabile, of 60 Minute Makeover, has donated a black Armani leather jacket.

Iain Gulland, Chief Executive, Zero Waste Scotland, said:“Fans have a chance to own great re-usable fashion previously worn by their idols, while supporting not one but two great causes – Pass it on Week and the celebrities’ chosen charity.

“Every year in Scotland, many potentially re-usable items are thrown away, including approximately 5,000 tonnes of sofas, 9,700 washing machines and 2,100 tonnes of T-shirts.

"Scotland already re-uses some products that are otherwise disposed of – with an extremely significant benefit to Scotland’s economy and environment as a result.”

The clothes, passed on by the celebrities, will be on display at the Scottish Resources Conference held at the Edinburgh International Conference Centre on October 5-6.

The winning bids will be announced at the Scottish Resources Awards when the auctions close at 7pm on Thursday, 6 October 6. 2016.

The average household in Scotland has £4,000 worth of clothes – 30% of which have been unworn for at least a year – yet each household continues to spend an average of £1,700 every year on new clothes. If everyone in Scotland wore their clothes just three months longer – our carbon, water and waste footprints would be reduced by 5-10%.

The auctions will go live at 7pm on September 29 2016. To bid for an item go to www.ebay.co.uk/usr/zerowastescotland
