Well-organised – and with their own set of rules (see swishing.org) – swishing parties are a great excuse for a get-together to which you can bring shoes, jewellery and accessories as well as clothes.

Pick a time and please, copy this message and the picture, make a facebook event and send it to your welldressing friends. Want free clothes? The Swapping (Swishing for eco-fashionista's) party is the solution! The idea is that you can end up with a completely free wardrobe, while disposing of those instantly regretted purchases (which seemed like a good idea at the time) in the most eco-conscious way possible. Well-organised – and with their own set of rules (see swishing.org) – swishing parties are a great excuse for a get-together to which you can bring shoes, jewellery and accessories as well as clothes. The simple Rules of the Rail we follow: 1. Every on arrives at the same time with at least one item of quality clothing or accessory. 2. Make sure your items are in good condition, clean and preferably on a hanger. 3. Clothes will be put on display for browsing for a half an hour for everyone to choose from. You can't actually claim any items during this 30 min. 4. Then as the swap/swish is declared open and everyone may take what they want. 5. Remember no scratching, biting, or elbowing allowed! 6. You and your friends go home with a great new look. See you soon! Sincerely, (your name here)
Borrow a clothes rod and some mirrors from someone for the event. Clean the house/venue and get some soda and chips and make a playlist to play some music.
Open the door when the bell rings, hang the clothes and have fun!
