She is Sustainable: The Clothes Swap
Event Information
About this event
She is Sustainable, in partnership with Twig Refill, brings you our first bitesize event - The Clothes Swap.
This 3 hour event focuses on Cork women & the positive choices we can make when it comes to what we wear!
Care | Share | Repair
We will have a wonderful array of Cork women sharing their stories, the clothes swap & to top it off - a repair hour with local dressmakers/cobblers to discover how to make your favourite pieces last longer!
Here’s how the clothes swap works:
1. Buy your ticket below - the €5 entry fee includes 1 free swap token.
2. Bring along 3-5 pre-loved items (clean & in good nick!) - you get 1 token per item. Drop them off to us at 2pm before the speakers (2.00pm - 2.15pm).
3. Swap til you drop - for every piece you bring, you’ll be able to bring 1 new piece home with you. (you can buy more swap tokens if you find additional pieces you want to bring home)
4. Bring your new pieces (& old) to our repair-extraordinaires. Our dressmakers & cobblers will fix as much as they can within the hour & teach you how!
Enjoy your new wardrobe 💚
