First Up Best Dressed is an interactive-clothes-swap-party-installation.
'Stadium Rock's brilliant First Up Best Dressed' The Guardian
The clothes we wear say so much about us. This is a chance for us to say something about the clothes we wear. First Up Best Dressed was once a playground insult, a cruel and petty taunt aimed at the poor kids dressed in ill-fitting hand-me-downs and odd socks. Stadium Rock want to reclaim the phrase, in the spirit of sharing, memory and adventure.
