Rent The Runway

logoEver come across an idea that’s so incredibly brilliant you kick yourself with your Manolos for not thinking of it first? Rent The Runway is pure genius! It’s an online shopping destination for fashionistas who want to don the latest trends without committing to astronomical price tags.

Rent The Runway procures posh pieces directly from top designers and then offers rentals to fashionable frugalistas at just 10% of the retail price. So for example, that $300 hotter than hell Alice + Olivia Back Zip Cut Out Sleeve piece of hotness you’ve been coveting can be yours (for a few days) for the low low price of $50. And how’s about that $1600 Herve Leger Gun Metal Sheath Dress that would make you the envy of your next cocktail party…for $200, its yours!

  1. Browse through Rent The Runway’s wide array of A-list designers and find a dress you love.

Rent The Runway is the brainchild of Jennifer Hyman and Jennifer Carter Fleiss. The ladies met at Harvard Business School and became great friends…I find myself wishing I had taken a class or two with these brilliant moguls on the rise!

In addition to Ready-to-Rent clothes, users of Rent The Runway also benefit from the expertise of professional stylists and the shared wisdom of like-minded fashion-forward members. Through exclusive relationships with top designers, Rent the Runway is able to continually update its stock with the latest pieces.

  • WearTodayGoneTomorrow.com has been doing this for nearly a year! WTGT rents weekly so there is no stress (RTR rents for 4 days) at 10% of retail values, ships nationally, provides refunds for dresses that don’t fit (which won’t happen with their standard sizing), and has received a ton of press including InStyle, Teen Vogue, The Today Show, People and way more… They’re amazing!!
