free womens clothes and free prosecco
 
OK ... this all sounds too good to be true.

For a 10 euro entry fee I can get some great new recycled clothes and shoes and bags ... and maybe win some bubbles and just chill.

oh ... this is a child free zone isn't it? No childrens clothes being swapped?

I love kids but it's nice to be in a child free zone every now and then.

I'll definitely be there and congrats on making such an amazing event happen.

LOL! I can't guarantee it will be a child free zone as some women like to bring their little ones shopping but there wont be any childrens or mens clothes for swapping (not this time anyway)

Now you've got me thinking - It wont be a men free zone either as we like to think we are an equal opportunity event! Yes, I would have to say..... ALL WELCOME!

Hi, I have been asked by PM to clarify a couple of points.

*Clothes shoes etc must be clean and in good condition.

*You can bring as many as you like but a limit of 15 tokens is in place

*No PJ's/underwear unless new with tag

* If you have no items to swap or run out of tokens you can buy more tokens for just €2.50 each and pick more items. 1 token = 1 item

*Clothes will not be graded or valued... 1 item = 1 token, 1 token = 1 item. We are keeping it as simple as possible

*Designer items are very welcome but so is high street fashion...Good condition on all items please
If you have any more questions please feel free to ask!

All information including the above is on our website at http://dublinfashionswapshop.wordpress.com

Thank you for all the details Unapam.
Should be a great success.

This sounds like a great idea Unapam and I am hoping to make it. I've already shortlisted some items to bring along! I will put the notice up on our intranet at work as it is a big organisation and a lot of colleagues are Dublin based.

Hi, thanks so much for that. I can email you the poster or post some to you if you prefer. Pm me your details. The poster is also available in Polish if any of our Polish women want to pass it on.
We have just had it confirmed that TV3 Expose will be there to film a segment on it and also a celebrity guest (as yet unconfirmed) A great buzz building for the event!

You're fine Unapam I printed some posters myself and got good feedback from colleagues so hopefully they will all come along. Exposé no less well done!

I'm looking forward to this!
Unfortunately my unwanted clothes aand shoes are stored away at my parents' house, waiting to be given to charity. But I'm going through my jewellery boxes!

Jewellery is good! We will also be accepting shoes, bags etc. You can also buy tokens for just 2.50 if you have no clothes to swap. Say hello to me on the day! cheers Pam

Just came home from this. Ladies, if you weren't there- you surely missed out!!!

It was even better than I had anticipated.
I'm a big girl, so I thought I'd be looking mostly at accessories- oh no!
I came home with a GORGEOUS vintage style rose patterned dress- still with tags on. Not to mention an amazing deep red Asian style dress jacket- also new! Great for weddings and posh parties this summer.
Also found trendy tops and shoes that were in superb condition.
Looking at the filled-to-the-brim racks for smaller sizes had me green with envy as well.
Everybody I talked to were delighted with their finds, and I saw a girl try on an absolutely lovely high-waisted pencil skirt, she looked fabulous.

In my opinion this was a roaring success, and I've already marked the date for the next swap in October.
