clothing swaps
Garment trading events
Clothing swaps are events where people exchange garments they no longer want for items brought by others.
Participants typically bring gently used clothes and take home different pieces at no cost.
The practice combines thrift with sustainability: The neighborhood clothing swap helped me refresh my wardrobe without spending anything.
Also called clothing exchanges or swap meets.
