(SYD) Clothes Swap - Dundas Community Centre, Parramatta

  • Dundas Community Centre 21 Sturt Street Telopea, NSW, 2117 Australia (map)

Join us for a fantastic opportunity to discover stylish new outfits, and help combat fashion waste!

This social gathering is all about exchanging clothes in a spirit of community and generosity, all while making a positive impact on the environment. Don't miss out on this chance to refresh your wardrobe and support the circular fashion movement!

Swaps offer a refreshing alternative to fast fashion, showing that you can update your wardrobe with stylish, high-quality pieces without contributing to harmful consumption practices. We're here to inspire mindful, deliberate choices by championing the exchange of timeless items—think natural fabrics, handcrafted garments, retro and vintage finds, non-fast fashion labels, slow fashion pieces, and both brand-new and preloved luxury items. Let's celebrate a more sustainable approach to fashion by embracing the beauty of quality and longevity.

Tickets: Free (registration is essential)

Swap Guidelines

  • People will not be allowed in once the check-in time is closed. This is to ensure the event is organise and fair to others.

  • Only bring items that are clean, in great shape, and free of wear—no faded colours, pilling, or damage. Please ensure your contributions are items that fellow swappers will genuinely appreciate. Bring along your pants, skirts, tops, sweaters, coats, jumpsuits, shirts, shoes, bags, shorts, jackets, blazers, scarves, hats, dresses, sunglasses, and jewellery. We’re excited to see pieces that are retro, vintage, handmade, or from quality brands—whether mid-range or luxury.

  • Sizing: While we can’t promise everyone will find their perfect size, accessories will be available to ensure there’s something for everyone. We welcome participants of all sizes and genders—this swap is open to clothing for men, women, adaptive needs, and all body types.

  • Items to bring: pants, skirts, tops, jumpers, coats, jumpsuits, shirts, shoes, bags, shorts, jackets, blazers, scarves, hats, dresses, sunglasses, jewellery. All these items can be retro, vintage, handmade or from quality medium to luxury brands.

  • DO NOT BRING THESE ITEMS: underwear, worn pyjamas, socks, or heavily used workout gear, lingerie
