On Thursday, 18 January, the students and teachers - Prof. Alexandra Kürtz and Saskia Detmar - of the "Slow Fashion" seminar in the Textiles department are inviting all fashion enthusiasts to the "ZIP'N'SWAP" clothes swap party at the AStA Stadtcampus from 6 pm.
The event, organised by the "Slow Fashion" seminar at Paderborn University, which consists of 15 students of fashion textile design and textile teaching, not only offers the opportunity for social exchange, but above all sets an example for sustainable fashion in order to counteract fast fashion and slow down the fashion cycle.
On this day, visitors can swap the clothes they have handed in beforehand for other people's clothes, which will ideally become new favourites. The event aims to renew the wardrobe in a sustainable way while protecting the environment.
The students created a customised corporate design, designed sustainable tokens and developed an independent barter system. In addition to the bartering campaign, the seminar also organised other programme items such as DJs to create a lively atmosphere. Visitors can therefore look forward to a colourful evening full of fashion with good music and an exuberant atmosphere.
The next deadline is Wednesday, 10 January, from 11 am to 1 pm in the Bibo Foyer of Paderborn University. Further information can be found on Instagram at @zipnswap. If you have any further questions, please contact the organisers at sdetmar@mail.upb.de.
