Anyone have some more ideas for my clothes exchange party....?

Question

I am having a clothing exchange party with a bunch of girls- you bring your unwanted items and exchange them for other people's stuff. pretty much free shopping. We are going to play some type of water balloon games to start the party off since it will probly be kinda hot out...and I have small little prizes for the winners. I was also thinking about weighing everyones items they bring and have a special prize for the person who brings the most stuff. We'll also be supplying drinks and a few food dishes- invites asked for people to bring a dish also. All of the left over clothing items will be donated to a local women's shelter. Any other ideas to make this a hoppin party?

Answer 1

Sounds like fun....trying everything on!  Can I come?  I'll just watch.

Answer 2

What a great idea!  New clothes, fun time..  Sounds like you've got it covered!  Have  fun!

Answer 3

This sounds like an excellent idea; what a way to reuse old but useful items while still giving to the needy.

You might also try having a relay race where you divide into teams, then run several yards to a box of clothing; the person puts on one item of clothing, then races back and takes it off, then the next person goes.  Whoever finishes the whole box or goes through all their players first wins.

Answer 4

Maybe have a contest where you grab five different things, blindfolded, out of five different boxes, then take the blindfold off, go into the other room, and put the items on. You have 2 minutes to put all 5 garments on and come up with what you're "dressed as", either a Halloween costume or an occupation.

Let the other guests guess what you are dressed as (A bag lady; a clown; a flamenco dancer, a hooker, etc), and have a small prize for the guest that's right.

Then, after several people have dressed up, have a contest for the goofiest, wackiest, best, whatever, costume, and let that person win a prize too.
