Swap is trendy
Being trendy and save money, follow the dress fashions of the moment without blowing your salary, a practice in vogue for many years. The subterfuges adopted to dress up with the latest market trends are many, starting with the reuse of old style back in fashion clothes and buried in the closet of mothers, aunts and sisters, until the amendments do it yourself with scissors, needle and threads the most creative and enterprising.
Wound, however, the result is certainly not what I expected, so some of the most brilliant minds who created this world and talks about the female mind, have thought but why not broaden the horizons of commerce DIY and involve friends and friends of friends in search of the cool look?
The result is a bit ‘to save and a little’ to have fun and spend a pleasant few hours, the latest trends from overseas: swapping or, in layman, barter. The oldest form of commerce of the human back in vogue as it evolves into party time, involving thousands of people and earning lots of fashion addicted.
Appointment? Just choose a date and invite all the friends / friends to take tea or an aperitif, either in house or in a public place, no matter, the only imperative is: to bring clothes, jewelry, shoes, accessories, handbags, necklaces belts, now no longer used them for barter.
For several months this new way of shopping has landed in Italy, naturally attracting mainly female audience who, hopping here and there among the various swap party, try to get rid of incorrect or purchase of accessories now in disuse, with the hope to barter for them with something more useful and in keeping with the refined style, taking home perhaps, some good business.
The swapping phenomenon has grown so much in Italy in recent months, to have even a club dedicated Swapping Club Italy (http://www.swapclub.it), founded by Tamara Nocco and Francesca Caprioli.
The club collects events, appointments and information on the swap party Italians but mainly acts as a reference point for all the swapper from our own, in the organization of party dedicated in various Italian cities. The first editions nationally held in Bologna and Rome, Italy and coordinated by the Swap Club, have raised a significant degree of public enough to convince other groups of swappers in other cities, especially central and northern Italy, to organize their party.
In fact, program swap party in Milan, Turin, Florence and many other cities.
Short swapping can continuously renew their wardrobe in a nice, teach sharing and, above all, without spending money.
