Genius! You made us laugh out loud! No, we don't take holidays here. It's like spinning plates!
You're very welcome. f:lux. Yes, accessories, jackets, dresses: anything you would consider to be clothes that are dear to you.

Hello SHOWstudio, when you say 'garments' does that include shoes, hats and everything? Do any of you ever go on holiday??
(P.S. Thanx so much for the extraordinary, eye opening, amazing 'Dress me up, dress me down'. WOW!)

Hi Penny, I'd feel sorry about the plate-spinning but, selfishly, I don't want you to stop - I've always LOVED watching other people work!
This new project might be quite hard - how to let go of something if it's a favourite? Even if you can't get into it anymore, or it's too far gone to donate (rips, significant stains)... What if the memory attatched to a certain article is fantastic, but you can't get over the embarrassment of sending something from, say, M&S to SHOWstudio/ID? That's purely hypothetical by the way...
Can't wait to find out how everyone responds!
cheers, f

Hey Show Studios, the bring and buy project looks like a great idea, is it mainly for designer clothes, or can it be anything that a person has in the wardrobe

F:lux, Sarah, Sebastion,
You'll notice we've worded the approach 'A favourite' because we anticipated that this might be a sticking point. You'll just have to get over your embarassment: I wouldn't have thought I'd have to tell an informed SHOWstudio audience that fashionability and style isn't about labels. Get that ripped, soiled M&S T-shirt to us right away. I'd imagine that it has a better story to tell than your brand-new Karen Walker, Sarah. It's the *provenance* (supplied courtesy of the filled-out form) that is of interest as much as the piece itself.
Hurry up! The clock is ticking...
