Former Spice Girls member Victoria Beckham is selling at least 600 pieces of clothing from her personal wardrobe in order to help benefit African mothers with HIV.

Beckham's range of clothing will include evening dresses, gowns and several iconic pieces the singer/designer wore at high-profile events throughout the years, according to Global Post.

In 2003, Beckham wore a signature white Dolce and Gabbana dress at the MTV Video Music Awards. This is just one of the many other pieces the proud mother and women's advocate will be selling in order to help profit mothers2mothers, a charity that works to help prevent the transmission of HIV from mothers to babies in at least nine countries, including South Africa, Kenya and Swaziland.

Other wardrobe items will include some of Beckham's signature costumes and attires during the years she was actively involved with the all-girl group Spice Girls.

M2M founder, Mitch Besser, "We've reached 1.2 million mothers since we started, but with more resources, we can reach more mothers. With more reach we prevent more infections and we keep more mothers alive to take care of their kids. The funding is absolutely transformational for an organization like ours."

Beckham released a statement and said, "After spending just a few days with these remarkable women and learning more about the charity from Mitch, and his lovely wife Annie Lennox, I wanted to do as much as I could. It really was a life-changing experience. I've never experienced anything like it."

All of Beckham's 600 wardrobe pieces can be found on Net-A-Porter.com'slet sister site TheOutnet.com. On the site, Beckham has posted an accompanying video where she said, "Every single piece that I have put in to be sold brought back a lot of memories. A lot of really, really happy memories of myself and David, of myself and the children, of different events that I've been to."

She added, "A lot of these pieces have been made especially for me, by the designers; these haven't all been bought off the shelf," Telegraph UK reported.
