Description:
Is wrestling on the floor with another lady over a pilling Lacoste cardigan really helping to make the world a better place? Um, yes. Since 'environmental sustainability' became a buzz concept in fashion, with everyone from Gorman to Sportsgirl getting on the organic bandwagon, shoppers have been looking for a way to combine their hedonistic passions with ethical responsibility.

Clothing swaps are the latest way to fill up your wardrobe, and earn enough moral credibility to look down on your vegan-shoe-wearing friends for at least five minutes. For Better or Purse are gearing up again for their monthly meet, where a donation at the door supports positive change for women and their communities through the International Women's Development Agency. Moving for the first time from Lady Boutique in Armadale to All of the Above in Fitzroy, this party lets you place your environmental fingerprints all over someone's unwanted Alice McCall.
