How many times have you been invited in a very special gala , event or even a party and that time you couldn’t afford to buy the proper designer dress to wear . Let me guess , many times ! It’s so true , for real girls with real jobs and a rent to pay every month , buying a new designer dress every time a wedding or an event invitation arrives at your door is insane . So let’s find some designer clothes to rent!!
Well , someone else would tell you not to buy this beautiful full of sparkle dress you saw on Selfridges’ windows but to choose a dress from topshop or hm instead. Let’s clear something up, we really love topshop and hm , but sometimes the circumstances require something a little extra right !!!
Thank god you can rent designer clothes nowadays ! It’s so much better than keep wearing that Gucci dress you bought on outnet.com clearance three years ago , don’t you think ?
Let’s see where you can rent designer clothes.

Rent the runway
How would you feel if you just could rent unlimited clothes every month with a monthly fee of course . Sounds fascinating to me ! Rent the runway is an online platform where by paying a monthly subscription you can have different fashion rentals at your door every month .
How it works ?
In this platform you can do one time rentals or you can rent with a membership . For the one time rentals , you have to pick the style you want to wear at least 2-4 days before your event , then choose a 4 day or 8 days rental . Rent the runway will always send you a back up size to ensure that it will fit perfectly to you . When you are ready , just pack your rental and ship it back with the prepaid label . Oh and the dry cleaners is on them ! So , if you’re all about designer clothes to rent , go for it!!
