Pre-loved clothing party to take place in Menston this month

Preloved... and Absolutely Amazing owners, Jen and Alice.

A sustainable fashion event is returning to Menston this month following its first outing earlier this year.

“Preloved... and Absolutely Amazing!” will take place at Kirklands Community Centre on Saturday 26th September from 10am until 2pm.

The event has been created by local women Jen and Alice, who are hoping to encourage people to give clothes a second life while bringing shoppers and sellers together.

It follows the first Preloved event in July, which featured independent stalls selling second-hand fashion.

The September event will feature local sellers offering pre-loved clothing, accessories, handbags and shoes.

Unlike online selling platforms, stallholders can meet buyers face-to-face and keep all of the money they make from their sales.

Jen and Alice said:

“We are two local ladies with a passion for sustainable fashion, community, and giving pre-loved clothing a second life.

“With sustainability becoming more important than ever, we're passionate about showing that fashion can be affordable, stylish, and environmentally responsible."

Kirklands Community Centre is based at 119 Main Street in Menston and is run by a charitable trust for the local community.

The centre hosts a range of local groups and activities throughout the year.

Entry to “Preloved... and Absolutely Amazing!” is free, with the event running from 10am until 2pm on Saturday 26th September.
