Melbourne Frock Swap
Melbourne Frock Swap is one of Melbourne’s best second hand ladies fashion markets. A great way to pass a few hours with soooo many vendors selling a great mixture of vintage, high street, designer and accessories. You’re bound to leave with a few things.
It’s held in a huge venue Seaworks at 82 Nelson Place in Williamstown and operates between 10am and 4pm. It’s only five minutes from the train station if you’re walking.
There is a $2 entry fee but children are free.
It’s wheelchair and pram friendly.
There is also coffee – so important right?
If you’d like to find out more check out their website here.

If you’ve been I’d love to know what you thought.
