<p><strong>2005 - From haute couture and charity to Louvre <br /> </strong><br /> I 2005, Vipp hosts its first charity event in the fashionable store Silvera in Paris where 30 designers, including Christian Lacroix, Philippe Starck and Chantal Thomass, help raise money for the organization Handicap International. <br /> <br /> The following year, Vipp and The Conran Shop in London host an auction in aid of the charity organization Oxfam. The auction features Vipp bins decorated by Ron Arad, Sir Terence Conran, Nicole Farhi as well as Karim Rashid to name just a few.<br /> <br /> The biggest event in Vipp's history takes place in April 2006, when Vipp is invited to exhibit at Carrousel du Louvre in Paris. Chilean designer Mauricio Clavero is engaged with the task of creating a challenging art experience. He creates 36 unique Vipp bins and soap dispensers covered in Swarovski crystals, Sicis mosaics and lighting by Ambiance Lumiére. The exhibition subsequently tours major cities throughout Europe. </p>
