Clothes Swap Events
Register NOW for our September Swap
We know most women have clothes sitting in their wardrobe that they are never going to wear again, or have never worn. Okay, so it was a great bargain or perhaps you had to have it because it was gorgeous; but somehow it never lives up to those expectations when you put it on. You hang it back in your wardrobe until the next time and the cycle continues. Or maybe your thing is shoes, a little too high, a little too tight or maybe they are a little too funky. Are you saving them for that rainy, just in case or perfect for that outfit day?
Our style and shape evolves regularly, letting go of stuff is the best way to keep organised and look great. In truth the stress of digging through a cramped wardrobe looking for the 20% of items that you do wear is just not worth it. I have always shared my wardrobe with my girlfriends, it is a great way of saving money and extending the wear of our clothes. Besides, your wardrobe will appreciate the space. It is time to stop holding clothes hostage and let them enjoy being worn by someone who appreciates them.
With so much damage to the environment, it is important we try and do our bit to reduce waste. 900,000 tonnes of textiles and shoes go to landfill every year. Clothes swapping is a great way of reducing waste and its free! Green fashion never felt so good.
HOW IT WORKS
Bring CLEAN new or gently worn clothes, shoes and accessories, all sizes welcome. (trust me, you won't miss them)
No knickers!!! (apart from the ones you are wearing, of course)
No stained, ripped or completely unwearable items.
We take your items and sort them into categories. You go into the bar and have a few drinks and a natter with your friends until browsing time commences.
Browsing time allows everyone to see what is available, try items on and see if you LOVE them. Then the swap rounds begin and you can take what you want for free. If two or more swappers want the same item, staff will be on hand to help decide who the lucky new owner will be. I will be available to give style advice to anyone who needs it on the night.
All items left at the end of the night will be donated to charity.
