About this Event
Join us for an evening of body positivity, sustainable style and conscious fashion! Connect with other fashion lovers, discover new gems for your closet and give your unwanted items a second life.
What to Bring
We’re creating a curated shopping experience, so please bring pieces that reflect quality, style, and are in excellent condition, gently used items you would gift a friend.
Especially Desired:
• Gently worn plus size clothing (XL and up)
• Natural fabrics such as linen, silk, cotton, cashmere, wool, and leather
• High-quality denim
• Unique one of a kind pieces
• Handmade and artisan samples
Every item should be freshly cleaned, free of stains, odors, tears, missing buttons, or needed repairs.
Bring a bag!
Clothing tip: wear form fitting tank tops or shorts underneath to lessen exposure when trying on clothes. (Optional)
Please leave these at home
To keep the swap curated, we kindly ask that you do not bring:
• Heavily worn items
• Clothing with stains, holes, pilling, or damage
• Items better suited for donation
• Undergarments, swimwear, shoes, or socks
• Jewelry and accessories
Our goal is quality over quantity—think boutique closet rather than donation bin.
(If you are a non-profit or artist interested in these materials, please contact [email protected] to get looped in our conscious consumerism circle)
How it works:
Purchase a ticket and swap 1 item for 1 item or join the Swap Society and swap till you drop with the "shopping pass". Members unlock unlimited swapping at all locations, and other perks! Members do not need to purchase a ticket, just show your active membership at check in, and don't forget you get to bring a complimentary guest!
Leftover items are either saved for the next swap, given to artists to upcycle or donated to local Sacramento non-profits Weave, CASH, Heritage Oaks Hospital, and Cathy's Closet.
39 pounds have been donated to artists to upcycle and the listed non-profits thanks to the swap community! This extends the life of garments, keeping them out of the landfill and helps those in need.
