  • AIBI Fashion Lab 2021 West Fulton Street Chicago, IL, 60612 United States (map)

Looking for a costume wardrobe refresh? Need to make space in your closet for more supplies and costumes? Want to dip your toe into historical costuming?

Cost: Admission is $5. Purchase a ticket here.

What to bring:

  • Any historic/vintage costumes and notions you no longer want/need

  • Big bags to take your now finds home!

Donating is encouraged, but you’re also welcome to sell pieces, as long as your items are tagged with a price and your name.

If you have costumes, fabric yardage, or vintage clothing and notions you’re interested in selling, please tag the items with a price and your name. To speed up transactions you may consider bringing a QR code printout of your preferred payment method(s).

We’ll have plenty of racks and hangers but you’re welcome to bring your own hangers to speed up set-up. If you’re bringing a lot of items, please feel free to come at 12:30pm.

If you’re not selling, just bring anything you want to go to a good home and it will!

Don’t have anything to bring? Not a problem! This event is also for those who are looking to get into the hobby and want to acquire costumes or materials in an affordable, sustainable way!

Changing rooms will be available.

Masking is strongly encouraged for this event.
