Clothes Swap
Event description

Are you ready to revamp your wardrobe the eco-friendly way?
Here's how it works:
1. Register to attend here on Humanitix
2. Bring 5 items of good quality pre-loved clothing, shoes, and accessories in good condition.
3. Wait for us to sort the items from all attendees (15 mins or so) and listen to the talk pm Sustainable Fashion
4. Browse to score new-to-you treasures!
5. Enjoy the satisfaction of reducing fashion waste and fostering a sustainable community.
Here are a few just a few guidelines to make the swap even better for everyone:
All items brought to the swap must be clean and in good condition; not worn out or too faded, no pilling, no odorous clothing, stained or damaged. (Good quality also means something you would gift to a friend).
- WHAT TO BRING: pants, skirts, tops, jumpers, coats, jumpsuits, shirts, shoes, bags, shorts, jackets, blazers, scarves, hats, dresses, sunglasses, jewellery. All these items can be retro, vintage, handmade or from quality medium to luxury brands.
- WHAT NOT TO BRING: we will not accept underwear, used pyjamas and overused workout gear.
We look forward to welcoming you to the swap!
Please note that each swap is different, with different clothes from you, the attendees who join us. Due to this please understand that everyone needs to be comfortable for thier items to be found as new treasures by other attendees without the gaurantee of finding the same number of items yourself.
Each month we will have a short talk about sustainable fashion and what is happening in the industry delivered by Nina Gbor from Clothes Swap & Style or Beatriz from Plastic Free Coogee.
Let's make a difference together, one swap at a time! Tag your friends, spread the word, and let's create a greener, more stylish world.
