You don’t need a designer label to look expensive, just a clever eye. When swapping, focus on fabric first: linen, silk, wool, and structured cotton always look luxe. Skip fast-fashion synthetics that lose shape after a few wears.
Next, colour palette. Neutrals (beige, black, white, navy) mix easily and instantly elevate your outfit. Swap statement pieces; blazers, tailored trousers, minimal handbags, and avoid anything that screams trend-of-the-month.
Keep a “swap wish list” on your phone so you stay strategic. At local ReWearth swaps in Cape Town, pair up with other swappers who share your size and taste. That’s where the magic happens.
Remember: sustainability isn’t about sacrifice, it’s about intention. The chicest wardrobes are built one smart swap at a time.
