While the first customers are already leaving with their finds, lots of people are still shopping for second hand treasures in the Erasmus Pavilion. The Pavilion clothing swap has only been going for half an hour, but it\u2019s already busy.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s only one of each garment, so first come, first served. Last Saturday, The Pavilion clothing swap was held in Erasmus Pavilion. The concept is simple: hand in your old clothes, receive points and then exchange those points for clothes brought by other participants. What do students think about this new concept?<\/p>\n

\u201cI was already familiar with the concept of a clothing swap. In our faculty, we often organise clothes swaps, but then among friends and not as official as this one. I hope that it\u2019ll become even more popular because wearing second hand clothes is much better for the environment than buying new clothes. That\u2019s why I only wear vintage and second hand clothes. My favourite find today are these shoes. I\u2019ve been looking for something like these for ages, so when I saw them here, I was delighted!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI sometimes buy clothes from second hand shops, but I\u2019d never heard of a clothing swap. So it\u2019s a completely new idea for me, but I like it. I\u2019ve got loads of clothes in my wardrobe which I\u2019ve got bored with after just wearing them once, so it\u2019s a good idea to be able to swap them for new things. My favourite find today is this army green crop top. It\u2019s simple but nice for the summer.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cInitially, I was a bit worried that not many people would come, but it\u2019s been busy from the start. I\u2019ve brought in all kinds of things: jackets, T shirts, skirts and more. I\u2019d got quite a lot of clothes that I didn\u2019t wear any more and I thought it was an interesting idea to come and swap them rather than throwing them way. My best swap is this black dress that I found; it\u2019s perfect for the summer.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\t
