Ethical fashion exchange Misty Mountain Swop to return to Edinburgh

Planning a spring clean of your wardrobe? A pop-up 'swop shop' is coming to Edinburgh, giving you cash or store credit for your unwanted clothes.

Misty Mountain Swop, an ethical fashion exchange set up by vintage lover Alyssa, is holding its second event in May and invites you to buy, sell and trade clothing items and accessories. Just bring your unwanted (but still clean and undamaged) clothing and, if Alyssa and her team reckon it's got re-sale potential, they'll offer you cash at 35% of the sale price or 55% in store credit. 

As the main focus of the event is on reducing the environmental impact of fast fashion, items which they choose not to buy can still be donated to charity on-site.

So if you fancy refreshing your wardrobe and helping out the environment, or just getting hold of something new to wear for summer, head down to Misty Mountain Swop. 

Misty Mountain Swop, Monday May 4-Sunday May 10, Gayfield Creative Spaces, 11 Gayfield Square, Edinburgh.
