Looking for an antidote to fast fashion? Swap your clothes instead!
About this Event

Swapping your clothing is one antidote to fast fashion as it promotes the reduction, reuse, and recycling of clothing!

Large organisations often end up discarding most of their clothing donations into landfill, but at Sustainable Clothing Co. nothing goes to waste...

This December we have partnered with the Adelaide Sustainability Centre and invite you to come and swap your clothing at a new location – The Joinery, 111 Franklin Street, Adelaide CBD. The Joinery community is connected by a love for nature and sustainable living, and a desire to lead positive change.

HOW THE SWAP WORKS:

  • Simply gather and bring a minimum of 5-10 items of clothing which are in good, wearable condition (the more you bring along the better!)
  • Enter the Swap between 11am-5pm with either your pre-purchased ticket or make a $5 cash payment upon arrival at the door (subject to capacity on the day).
  • Browse and find new (to you) items to take home! The number of items you bring in is the same number of items you can take home. If you would like to take any additional items home, please ask our friendly staff on the day.
  • Any clothing remaining at the end of the swap will be donated.

ACCEPTED/EXCLUDED ITEMS:

  • All sizes, colours and styles are welcomed.
  • Accepted items include: both ladies and men's clothing: Tops, T-shirts, pants, jackets, sweaters, dresses, skirts, shirts, blouses, crop tops, bralettes, leather, denim, knitwear, blazers, coats, shorts, bodysuits, play-suits, jumpsuits, vests, leggings, sportswear, hats, bags, purses, shoes, jewellery, scarves, belts.
  • Excluded items include: formal wear, underwear, socks, babies clothing and children’s wear.
  • The clothes swap is not a dumping ground for stained, ripped, unwearable clothing, instead ask us how we can recycle your damaged goods and consider bringing items to the swap that you would give to family and friends.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

  • For all enquires please contact us via the Facebook Event page.
  • The Foodprint Experience Cafe will be open 7.30am-3pm to cater to your food and beverage needs (not included with ticket) whilst you're here on the day. Toilets are accessible on the ground floor of the building.
  • Limited street parking is available on Franklin Street and Morphett Street, and the nearest pay carparks can be found on Franklin Street, in the U-Park Andrew (entry via Andrew Street) and above the new Adelaide Bus Depot (entry on Grote Street).
