About us
Our passion was to bring "swishing" (clothes swapping) to New Zealand offering an alternative to selling or throwing away new or lightly used good quality items. We loved the concept of making the most of your wardrobe, your money and the environment. Both of us choosing New Zealand as our home to start a family, we found ourselves leaving the corporate world behind us adding to a wardrobe full of clothes no longer worn...suits, glitzy dresses and heels that were too high to walk well in. Since having children our wardrobes are now full of clothes they too have no use of and in fact nursery equipment and toys to boot! Here commenced the birth of iSwish....
Vic & Karin illustrating the Mirror Match: Same size top with different body shapes.
iSwish promotes affordable sustainable fashion. It is about finding your own personal style and wearing clothes, shoes & accessories that fit your personality, lifestyle and body shape.
"We all come in different shapes and sizes and dress size has little to do with it. Karin & I like most of us find it hard to find clothes that fit well. The mirror match is a unique feature that helps you identify other members with the same dimensions as yourself. This in turn will help you see what the item will look like on yourself for more effective swishing!"
"iSwish enables you to re-invent your wardrob e for FREE with often new or nearly new one of a kind pieces; its a great eco-friendly way to be stylish"
We hope you like the site

What is iSwish all about?
Maybe it was an impulse buy,? an unloved gift? or something that no longer fits? Any NEW, lightly used or factory second items that are still wedged at the back of your wardrobe or drawers can be swished for items that you will wear. It is a place where the eco-conscious & "shopsessives" can enjoy guilt-free shopping....hurrah!
So, swish through the economic downturn and have fun whilst you are doing it!
iSwish is the online community to join if you love to shop but hate to throw away. iSwish takes swishing parties to the next level by giving you access to items listed by other fashionistas from all over the country.
It provides a platform to locate people with similar tas tes and where you can build a network of friends.
