I usually find it works best if everyone drops off their stuff in advance, then I set my house up like a store, with everything on racks, and certain looks styled on dressmaker dummies. Then everyone shows up, has a drink and has at it - we don't draw numbers or anything. People tend to be pretty friendly, and willing to share - one of my favorite parts is seeing the looks people come up with for people they have just met. The person who comes up with the best look walks home with a golden hanger award (a wood hanger I spraypaint gold : ). I’ve hosted one of these every year for a good long while.
