Labels on the Lawn, a fundraiser for Women’s Legal Service Queensland, is returning for its seventh year with a slight name change.
The event, on 20–21 June, has been relabelled as Labels on Tour 2026 as it will be hosted at The Prop House Collective, Coorparoo, instead of its usual home at Hanworth House.
This initiative has raised $1.14 million for WLSQ and Marisa Vechhio, WLSQ supporter and fundraiser, is aiming for $1.5 million.
“We collect designer wear donations, including shoes, clothes, bags, hats, accessories and more, from generous individuals and boutique stores across Brisbane and surrounds, and host an immersive fashion experience to benefit Women’s Legal Service Queensland,” she said.
“The success of this event is made possible by the gorgeous donations we receive. We are asking people to donate items they have paid $100 or more for.”
There are seven drop-off locations: One One One Eagle Street, LBD shop in Paddington, Styling Station in Milton, Miss Opulence in Bulimba, Joli Boutique in Ascot, Hanworth House in East Brisbane and The Prop House Collective in Coorparoo.
“Rural practices can also donate. We will send them a pre-paid ‘pack and post’ satchel to fill and return,” she said.
“Rural, regional and remote firms can request a free bag at info@hanworthhouse.com.au.
“We are a tiny team with lofty goals and a team of extraordinary volunteers who make the magic happen!”
The event is also aimed at promoting sustainable fashion practices and pushing back against fast-fashion, a trend that contributes to environmental damage and poor working conditions for garment workers.
The annual event is hosted by the team at Hanworth House, alongside a group of volunteers who have a shared vision of making a positive impact in their community, assisting women and children impacted by domestic violence.
