**Oxfam has returned to Boxpark Shoreditch again this year with its pop-up halloween
shop.**

Open for a week from 24 October, [Oxfam](https://www.oxfam.org.uk/)‘s Halloween 
store stocks a range of preloved clothing and accessories, inspired by Victorian
and Gothic style. This includes holographic and sparkly items for wannabe aliens,
mermaids and glam ghouls, plus lux velvet and lace for the classic witch look.

Everything in the store is a one off, and all money raised will go to support Oxfam’s
work across the world.

The Oxfam Festival Shop is behind the store. A travelling pop up shop raising money
for the charity, it selects items from Oxfam’s textile recycling centre in Batley
to suit each event. This year it has sold classic band t-shirts at Download Festival,
hand-painted leather jackets at Glastonbury Festival, tropical shirts at Boardmasters
Festival and flares at Bestival.

throwing a spooktacular party, or dressing up in ghoulish green and raising funds
for the charity
