Description

Remake’s “No New Clothes” campaign challenges the public to not buy anything new for 90 DAYS! Reset your relationship with fashion by taking the pledge and swapping with us. You can expect not only the clothing swap but also eclectic sounds from local talent, sustainable vendors, flash tattoos, vegan eats, and more! Nothing New is a not-for-profit event. Proceeds will be donated to Remake to support their fight for women’s rights and reform in the fashion industry. We hope to see you Saturday, June 11th for this one-day, multi-media experience that connects fashion industry professionals, sustainable artisans, and Bay Area insiders to spark conversation and change within our local communities. You won’t want to miss this one, but that’s nothing new ♡ Don't know what to bring? Please bring any unwanted, QUALITY clothing to trade. Items must be in GOOD condition, preferably washed and ironed. NO stained clothes, items with holes, or underwear. All accessories are welcomed, i.e. gently worn shoes, handbags, jewelry, scarves, and unopened beauty products. **** Due to the overwhelming amount of love in clothes donations we received previously, we ask that every guest limit their clothing swap items to 3 large bags. If you have more quality items that you would like to donate to our cause, please reach out to us directly! As a means to better serve our low-income and homeless neighbors, all leftover fashion items will be donated to East Oakland Collective and Omni Commons, two of Oakland’s community leaders in the fight against poverty ♡ Follow us on Instagram for updates: @repurpose.society We are more than happy to engage with fellow artists and community members so if you have any questions, concerns, or suggestions you'd like to share with us, please email [email protected] or reach out to us on Instagram.
