Although your wardrobe might be begging for an update, there's no rule saying your fresh threads need to be brand new. Then again, not all second-hand and vintage fashion is created equal, so if you're looking for something special, SWOP Clothing Exchange is likely where you'll find it. Its colour-coded racks are always a goldmine when it comes to finding something both fashionable and sustainable. Plus, as well as promoting anti-waste, the buyers are big on inclusivity — so most of the clothing you'll find is affordable, and there tends to be plenty of options for all body types.
