RENEWAL by MODA

MODA is eager to host RENEWAL, a sustainable fashion experience for Chicago Fashion Week 2024! Join us for a clothing swap, some upcycling, and an unforgettable runway!

Event details:

  • Date/Time: Tuesday, October 15; doors open at 6 pm; show begins at 6:30 pm

  • Location: Ida Noyes Hall, 1212 E 59th St, Chicago, IL 60637

  • Cost: Free Entry; we simply request that each guest bring a gently-loved item for the clothing swap; any items left unclaimed will be donated to our friends over at reSOURCE, UChicago's very own student-run thrift store!

  • If interested in participating in our Upcycling Booth, please also bring a used t-shirt or garment to revamp!

In the spirit of sustainable fashion, we additionally ask each guest to wear a thrifted, upcycled, or second-hand item to the event. We would like to thank everyone who helped us bring this project to life, and reSOURCE for allowing us to use pieces from the store for this shoot.

This event is open to both University of Chicago students and unaffiliated guests.
