Overview
Are you looking for a chance to update your wardrobe that's a little greener, and a lot cheaper, than hitting the shops? The Clothing Exchange, created by two Australian women back in 2004, hosts regular events across three states to encourage us all to swap our good quality clothes the ones that you're tired of but aren't too tired-looking with other like-minded shoppers.
How does it work? Each event is held in a different city venue, such as at the Surry Hills Library, which is where the next event is due to take place at 10am on Saturday, August 18. There is a $15 entry fee, and each person can bring up to six items to exchange for buttons, which are then used as currency during the event.
There are rules. Items that you wish to swap must pass the quality control by the Clothing Exchange ladies on the day. And no elbowing. (Okay, we made that last one up. But the sentiment is true. This is a friendly clothes swap, not a bargain basement free-for-all.)
