End of Summer Clothes Swap

| Nina Gbor

The end of summer clothes swap is here! Time for that wardrobe upgrade to have you entering the next season in STYLE!

Bring your girlfriends, your sisters, your mother and your squad to the Nishi Building on the 25th for this swap party. As usual, there will be music, there will be wine and fun. There will also be a quick mini-styling workshop to help everyone identify the best types of clothes and colours for our body shapes and complexions.

We believe that you can be very stylish and sustainable at the same time. We also believe in clothing sustainability, therefore host these clothes swaps to promote the circular economy in clothing, reduce clothing waste and environmental pollution.

HOW THE SWAP WORKS

1. Bring 1 – 15 items of clothing or accessories to add to the swap collection pool.

2. Please note that the clothes swapping will commence after the intro, welcome and brief styling workshop at the beginning. During the swap, guests can try on any garments and accessories and then take home as much as they like.

3. At the end of the swap, participants can choose to take home remaining items they brought that have not been taken or they can leave them at the swap to be donated to charity.
