Fashion Revolution - Clothes Swap!
I haven't been writing much but that's because I'm busy preparing for a clothes swap happening on the 5th September, 4 - 6pm. Mark your calendars, everyone!



So, if you're thinking about freshening up your wardrobe and getting rid of the old stuff? Forget shopping, it’s time for a clothes swap! Clothes swaps are not only a good way to declutter and refill one's wardrobe, but are also considered a green way to reduce waste, reduce the use of natural resources, and revitalize your closet without opening your wallet!

Spend the afternoon hanging out, finding new friends,
trying on new outfits, and taking pictures.

Take part and be a SWAPAHOLIC!

RULES

1. Clean your closets and set aside clothing, shoes, and accessories in excellent condition for us. 2. Launder and make sure your clothes are in tip-top condition for their new owner

3. Neatly fold or hang your swappables and place inside a clean bag

4. Drop your swappables and collect your coupon on either 19 August 7-9pm, 22 August 2-6pm, and 1 September 7-9pm.

5. Swap day on 5th September . Bring your coupons and bag for your items.

6. Items leftover at the end of the event are donated to charity Note:

Swapaholics can trade in up to 12 items Swapaholics bring in your clothes for trade and exchange them for coupon that you can use to claim “new” items from the swappers heaven on 5th September.

Fashion Revolution Day is a movement to increase awareness of the true cost of fashion held each year on April 24th, the anniversary of Rana Plaza.

We want to create a fashion industry that values people, the environment, creativity and profit in equal measure. Our mission is to create a movement engaging consumers, environmental leaders, fashionistas, human rights activists and designers to think differently about who makes their clothes in order to make that happen

  2. This is a really great idea! I try to purge my closets twice a year--or when I run out of hangers. Then I swear I won't buy something I don't REALLY love...but it happens anyway. I could probably donate 2/3 of my closet and still have plenty to wear

    1. Karyl, i didn't realise how much stuff I had in my closet until I went through it for the clothes swap. How embarrassing!

  3. This is a fantastic idea. Sometimes your items are still good but no longer fit or no longer suit your style or needs. I used to do something similar with children and books.
