Want guilt-free swapping? Here's how!

The Swap Til You Drop team have their arms full with all the clothes & accessories they're eager to swap. Doing some good for East Timor, while sipping champagne and trading in your old treasures for new ones? We can't wait!

So while you fashionistas are counting down the days until Sunday 28th June, we've compiled a list of steps that will help make your treasure hunt a success! Who knows what fabulous vintage finds await you?

Step 1. Search through your wardrobes, and pull out all those clothes and accessories you no longer wear. Dresses, shoes, clutches, pants, jewelry - swap it away!

There are absolutely no restrictions on the number of items you may bring (minimum: 1). The more you bring, the more you can walk away with.

We do ask that you please bring only gently used or new clothes that are wearable. If you'd lend it to a friend, it's good to be swapped with a stranger!

We will be checking all the items at the door for signs of obvious wear and tear, holes, pilling, etc, so please ensure that all items are in kept condition and have been cleaned prior to the day. Remember - only things someone else may want. Yes, that does mean no underwear!

Who knows? Your next LBD could be being pulled out of someone else's wardrobe right now, to be swapped with you!

Step 2. Bring all items to the door at 10 - 11am.

If you're bringing any women's or men's clothes, please make sure they are cleaned, neatly presented, and on hangers!

Any accessories should be in bags.

We all love to do our bit, so please help the environment and bring your own bags to take away your new clothes & accessories in. We won't be providing plastic bags.

For each item you bring in on the day, you will receive a token, which you can then use to exchange for another item.

Each item = 1 token, and vice versa.


Step 3. Sit back and relax til 11:30am when the doors will officially open.

Great music, bubbles and nibbles? We'll have it all. Why not bring your family and friends - make a day of it! There's nothing quite like trading in your old things for new on a lazy Sunday.

Step 4. Swap til you drop!

We will sort the clothes to make it easier for you to peruse.

Please respect your fellow swappers and swap in an orderly fashion – we all know how crazy shopping crowds can get!

There will be communal change rooms if you would like to try on items.


Step 5. Once you are happy with your selections, proceed to check-out where you may exchange the tokens for your new wardrobe!


Step 6. Stick around for the fashion parade!

Bring out your inner catwalk fierceness and strut it out in your new items - who knows, you may be snapped up for our “Vintage Style” Gallery Page! Have you got what it takes? Best dressed walks away with a fantastic prize! (We wish we could win it)




If, at the end of the day, there's anything that hasn't been swapped away, it will be donated to charities.

Looking forward to it? We know we are!
