Recessionista’s Closet event this weekend

(NDG Wire) On September 25, 2010 Dallas will welcome back its largest clothing swap event ever with an even greater community impact.

Lifestyle and Image Consultant Talisa Lavarry created this annual event in 2009 to help families and promote green living in Dallas. Not only will this year’s event benefit The Dallas International Street Church.

The Swap expo will feature trunk shows and several mini fashion shows hosted by local Vintage Apparel and Accessory dealers. Organizers are excited about using members of The Dallas Street International Church as models in the event as it not only exposes them to culture it gives them an opportunity to be put on display in a positive light while increasing their self-esteem.

“There are no words to explain the excitement I feel about partnering with The Dallas International Street Church this year. This truly encompasses all of my passions and gives me the opportunity to teach and encourage; all in the name of Fashion,” says Lavarry, Event Coordinator.

The event was well received on last year and the request for a repeat has been overwhelming. Lavarry attributes the high-level of interest in the Swap and Expo to tough economic times and the success that so many had in finding great clothes on last year.

All clothing that is left after the swap will be donated to The Dallas International Street Church. This community fostering event will take place at Excuses Art Bar & Cafe in Dallas on Saturday September 25 from 10 a.m. until 3 p.m

Admission to this event is free, however; a $5 donation is requested at the door. For more information regarding Recessionista’s Closet, visit www.talisalavarry.com and click on the latest news link or call 214-886-0696.
