Stylebook Clothing Swap 2026

About this event

Stylebook and the Arts Council of Princeton see a new outfit in your future. Bring garments that no longer serve you, and the fashion fates will guide you to new-to-you pieces destined to be yours. We all have a piece of nice clothing that just didn’t work out for whatever reason. It might not fit your size, your life, or maybe your style has just evolved. Whatever the reason, special clothes don’t have to be stuffed in the back of the closet or wind up in a landfill. Why not swap them for something new and see if your piece could become someone else’s wardrobe staple? In addition to swapping, you can expect: • Learn Stylebook’s tips and tricks for maximizing your wardrobe and finding your unique style at their style expert station. • A Mending Table where a seamstress can suggest quick and clever fixes to holes, snags, hemming tips, etc, to keep your clothes out of the landfill. • And other soon to be announced activities! HOW TO PARTICIPATE: It’s a one-for-one swap: for each piece of clothing you bring, you can take one home! The swap is first-come, first-served: the earlier you arrive, the more there will be to choose from! Please drop off clothing and accessories between 11-11:45am. You will check-in your items and receive one ticket per item to swap. For example, if you bring three articles of clothing, you’ll receive three tickets to trade for three “new-to-you” items. You can bring up to 10 items! Please bring them on a hanger if possible. After dropping off your items, you are welcome to leave and return or join other swappers in line downstairs while mingling over coffee + pastries. The swapping will begin at 12pm. THE DOs: – Quality over quantity. You can bring up to 10 pieces, but there is no minimum. Bring items you’d be excited to find! – Consider bringing your own reusable shopping bag to take your items home. Thanks for embracing the sustainability at the heart of clothing swaps. THE DON’Ts: – Damaged garments. Kindly check your pieces…
