Description

Spring Swap at BasBlue with Free Market of Detroit!

Join BasBlue and Halima Afi Cassells for an exciting Spring Swap during Fashion Revolution Week, where sustainability meets style! Drop off those gently-used fashion pieces you’ve outgrown, hunt for fabulous hidden gems to revamp your wardrobe, unleash your creativity at our Make & Mend station, mingle with fellow eco-conscious fashionistas, and walk away with fresh finds that won’t cost you a penny!

This free community gathering at BasBlue welcomes everyone ready to reimagine fashion, slash waste, and embrace a more thoughtful approach to what we wear.

Join the revolution! ♻️💙
