Sip & Swap
11 Apr 2025 SAST (+02:00)
Create Lonehill (previously Clay Cafe Lonehill)
Details
Slow Clothing Exchange is based on the idea of a classic "Sip & Swap" where women get together to have a glass of wine and thrift their wardrobes.
We want to be kind to the environment by "slowing" down fashion and providing women with the opportunity to find new treasures whilst letting go of the old ones.
This event is female founded, organized, and run with the goal to be inclusive and empower all women through their clothing.
