HOWEVER don’t fret, I’d like to introduce Mia and Vanessah from                         The Clothing Exchange! Same concept just a different location. We’re joining forces to make them bigger and better for YOU!

There has been a surge of interest in ethical issues around shopping, particularly regarding landfill and the link to global warming. The $1.7 billion Australians spend on clothing and accessories each year is turning into a landfill problem: just look at the bags bulging with discards dumped out.  Until now, it has been assumed that eco-consciousness is at loggerheads with the passion for bargain-hunting and fast fashion that fuelled the continuing chain-store boom.  But a swap event is an opportunity for guilt-free shopping.

So why not trade shopping for swapping.  It combines ethical shopping, bargain hunting and social networking – and it’s the hottest fashion trend.  Buying or sharing second hand garments eliminates the need for new ones and shrinks your ecological fashion footprint.

The swapping craze has been gathering momentum for some time. The Clothing Exchange is a network that hosts swap nights at chic venues in most capital cities and is now in Perth.
