RetroFit

A charity shop that restores and tailers clothing. Ideal for trying to find that retro look in a style that suits you. Employees would ideally be voluntary fashion students working purely for experience with perhaps a commission based approach to items they sell.

Clothes would be sold at similar prices to other charity shops, with proceeds going to a registered charity but a little extra would be added for the personal service.

To attract volunteers, each shop must establish a link with local universities or colleges and offer promotions that would suit the students. For example, any rags or clothing unsuitable for sale could be offered as material for their own use. The focus would very much be on their creativity.
