Eco Exchange Fashion Show & Clothing Swap
Eco fashion is a lifestyle, a choice made to live with out harming others or our planet. The Eco Exchange Fashion Show & Clothing Swap, will teach people that they can be sustainable without sacrificing their style!
“Eco-fashion” uses environmentally sensitive fabrics and responsible production techniques. Clothes and accessories that meet such criteria are usually made using organic raw materials, such as cotton grown without pesticides, or re-used and recycled materials. Eco-fashions don't involve the use of harmful chemicals and bleaches to color fabrics—and are made by people earning air wages in healthy working conditions.
Fashion Show Details
The Eco Exchange Fashion Show will grace the main stage of the festival from 1:00pm – 1:30pm. The show will cover all the elements of eco-fashion, featuring Arcadia Boutique, Buffalo Exchange, EcoQuette, clothsline organics, Sheree Moore, Veronica Paige, Garbage of Eden Design, Hemp Sisters, Rupalee, NatureVsFuture, and Beau Soleil

1. Clean your closets.
2. Wash and sort your gently used clothing: women’s, men’s, kid’s; tops, sweaters, outerwear, shorts, pants, skirts, dresses, footwear and fabric. Don’t forget footwear, scarves, hats, jewelry and accessories.
3. If possible, put professional and dressy clothing on hangers; pack the rest into boxes and bags.
4. At the swap, put your items out on the tables in designated areas and scout for new clothes.
5. Be courteous and generous.
