Greetings, Bella Stylistas! With Lagos Fashion Week 2025 fast approaching, there’s an unmissable event you need to mark on your calendar. SwapShop Lagos is making a grand return, embracing sustainability like never before!
Celebrating the 15th anniversary of Lagos Fashion Week, SwapShop is back this October as an official highlight of the festivities. This initiative invites fashion enthusiasts, thrifters, and trendsetters alike to participate in a movement dedicated to minimizing textile waste, breathing new life into unique garments, and curating a wardrobe that’s both stylish and eco-friendly.
At its core, SwapShop promotes the extension of garment lifespans by offering a carefully selected collection of pre-loved treasures, designer finds, and vintage pieces-all available for swapping within a chic pop-up setting during Lagos Fashion Week. This year, the experience is enhanced with an on-site Repair Station, where minor garment repairs can be made, ensuring your wardrobe stays fresh and wearable for longer.
Participation Details:
- Exclusive to holders of Lagos Fashion Week tickets
- Submit your items online for approval-only designer, vintage, or premium Nigerian labels qualify
- Approved pieces earn you tokens
- Redeem your tokens to swap for fresh fashion finds during the event
Any items left unswapped won’t be discarded; instead, they will be donated to local community projects, ensuring nothing goes to waste.
If you’re passionate about circular fashion and eager to update your closet responsibly, SwapShop Lagos is the perfect opportunity this season. We can’t wait to see the fabulous exchanges and stylish transformations that will unfold. Stay tuned and keep championing sustainable style!
