Swap O Rama.. Who else is going?
Swap-o-rama-rama is a clothing swap and wearable art creation event
where all your fabulous fashion fantasies can come true!
The swap begins with a giant collective pile of clothing, the unwanted
costumes of all who attend. Everyone is welcome to dive in and find
their next new/used items from the pile. Take as little or as much
clothing from this pile as you like, it's all free!
After you have chosen your new dandy duds, slide on over to a
transformation station, where you can cut, sew, glue, paint, bedazzle,
and otherwise renew someone else's rags into your riches. Materials and
a few sewing machines will be available to help you unleash your
well-dressed muse. Or, attend a workshop where you can learn to modify
your re-fashioned finds in unexpected ways.
An all day participatory runway will feature the silly, the
sophisticated, and the sublime. All are invited to take a playful spin
down the runway in their most fabulous fashionry. Ask the audience for
their opinion on the outfit you just plucked from the pile... or just
show off!
Swap-o-rama-rama is coming to Vancouver and will take place April 15,
2007 from 11:00 to 4:00 p.m. at the Heritage Hall.
