At La Trame we offer a local solution for giving a second life to your beloved clothes.
Your clothes and textile donations are directly recycled in our boutique. We have plenty of storage space, enabling us to regularly renew the range of items on our shelves.
next reception week:
06th - 09th may
WE ARE DELIGHTED TO RECEIVE :
- clean items in good to new condition (that could be worn by someone else)
- quality clothing and accessories: preferably natural materials (cotton, wool, linen, silk, cashmere, leather...)
- good-quality shoes, new or in very good condition
WE DO NOT ACCEPT :
- underwear or socks (for hygiene reasons)
- slim/skinny jeans (as they contain elastane and age poorly).
- the following ultra fast fashion brands: Shein, Temu, Bershka, Chicorée, Pull & Bear, Tally Weijl, Stradivarius... (due to poor quality)
For this week's reception, we do not accept children's clothing from 0 to 15 years old.
We operate with a points system.
1 point = 1 chf (only reusable for the purchase of material within la Trame)
The selected donated garments are measured by the volume of a shopping paper bag .
(a filled shopping bag = 10 points). Maximum 3 shopping bags/person (after brief sorting).
To acquire points, you can buy them or bring us clothes (only during the weeks indicated on our website) that you no longer wear and receive points in exchange.
You can then use your points freely within LA TRAME (points earned through exchange can only be reused to purchase equipment).
Purchased points, on the other hand, can be used for anything (classes, alterations, materials, etc.).
If you wish, you can donate the points earned to the NELA association, so that young migrants can find their happiness among our pieces.
