Rent the Runway is a fashion rental service that allows customers to borrow designer clothing and accessories for a limited time. Founded in 2009, it offers a wide range of items for various occasions, including parties, weddings, and everyday wear. Users can choose from a selection of dresses, tops, and more, often at a fraction of the retail price. The service operates through an online platform where customers can browse, select, and rent items. Rent the Runway also provides a subscription model, allowing users to receive multiple items each month. This approach promotes sustainable fashion by encouraging the reuse of clothing.
