A place<\/strong> in Enschede to meet to swap, borrow, repair, restyle, upcycle clothes, share information on textiles and exchange ideas at the intersection of art and design. We strive to promote cooperation and to experiment. We believe this will lead to new ideas and cross-overs between Art & Design.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Overlap Swap & Share
<\/strong>2 days a week to swap and borrow clothes<\/p>

In this way, we want to bring the beautiful unworn garments, which many people keep in their closets for years, back into circulation by sharing them with each other.<\/p>

Want to know how our Swap & Share works? Where & When?<\/a>

We hope to make more people aware of the overconsumption and overproduction of clothes and textiles. Instead of buying new clothes, we have been offering our clothing-swap-share-borrow-concept as an alternative since 2020; Fashion as a Service<\/strong>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
