Fashion Commission to Play Host to GFX

The Fashion Commission is hosting the Global Fashion Exchange (GFX), the international platform renowned for promoting sustainability within the fashion industry as part of the United Nations SDG Campaign which will be bringing its acclaimed clothing swap event, in Riyadh, for the first time, ever, as one of Fashion Futures Activations.

The GFX Fashion Swap will take place at Personage concept store in Riyadh on the 11th and 12th of December, and will facilitate the exchange of gently used, pre-loved fashion items within a dynamic in-store recycling experience that will be open to members of the media, industry and public alike.

The swap is built upon a simple yet effective concept; no money changes hands and everyone is invited.

GFX Fashion Swap empowers people to take positive action and support the conservation of the environment whilst actively participating in recycling and upcycling of fashion items.

Such swap will also feature 45-minute one-on-one workshops with industry leaders, several personalization-focused creator stations and educational installations to create a well-rounded, dynamic store experience that explores elements of everyday sustainability.
