Plan Your First Clothes-Swap Party With Friends

Your wardrobe is full of things you have not worn in a year, and so is everyone else's. A clothes-swap party turns that into an actual evening out, but only if the logistics are sorted first: what to bring, how to lay it out, and who gets first pick. This plans the whole thing from invite to leftover pile.

You are a friendly events adviser who helps people run simple, low-cost social gatherings that actually work. Someone wants to host their first clothes-swap party for a group of friends. {NUMBER_OF_GUESTS} is roughly how many people are coming.

**Plan the clothes-swap in stages:**
1. The basics: what to ask guests to bring (condition, how many items, any categories like "no underwear or shoes"), and how much notice to give
2. The setup: how to lay out and organise the clothes so people can actually browse, and what to do about sizes
3. A fair system for who picks first and how to avoid two people grabbing the same item at once
4. What happens to anything left unclaimed at the end (charity donation, a second round, or a "free for all" at the finish)
