Crushes is back with another The Auckland Clothes Swap! Where we infiltrate an urban rooftop with DJ's and markets, free Picky juice, and swap our gently loved clothes. It's a fantastic day out where you can leave with what feels like a whole new wardrobe!
HOW DOES IT WORK?
- Bring up to 10 quality pieces and leave with up to 10
- You arrive and our team of volunteers check for quality*
- While we are sorting clothes on to tables like, TOPS, MEN, SIZE 16+, etc, you can shop our market, and get a discount at Crushes Karangahape
- At 1pm, we do a count down and let the swapping begin!
- Our volunteers make sure no-one exceeds 10 when they leave
- Anything remaining at the end of the day will be donated to Dress For Success
DETAILS:
- SAT, NOV 8th at the rooftop of Wilsons, Mercury Lane (just off Karangahape Road)
- We open at 11am for you to do an early drop off, and we will be swapping bang on 1pm. Please drop off your clothes no later than 12:40 so we have time to check your quality.
- Tickets are cheapest here and now, and it'll be $15 on the door.
*WHAT COUNTS AS QUALITY?
Any brand is accepted, but we are wanting great condition. No marks, broken zips, smell, etc. This process ensures a great selection of clothes for you on the day, and for the opshop who gets anything left over at the end. It also reminds us that we are custodians for our clothes while we have them - let's keep them in circulation and look after them!
PLEASE NOTE:
- You cannot bring jewellery, shoes, bags or accessories.
- Want to volunteer? thank you! Click here
- We won't have private changing rooms, so we suggest to wear bike shorts
- This is a plastic-free event so be sure to bring your own bags
- Remember, be generous! If everyone brings quality pieces, then we all will have a great selection to choose from. We like to say "Bring good clothes to make a good clothes swap"
- And our transport and parking tips: this venue is a carpark, so may as well park here for the day and take the lifts up, or take public transport! You can easily access it from the street level or there is a skybridge from Karangahape Road through Lim Chourr supermarket
