8 Clothing Rental Subscription Services to Test Out in 2024

How it works: Each subscription allows renters to borrow six items at a time for $98 a month. Be sure to take full advantage of the website’s features as you browse. “Our algorithm will get to know what you like and re-sort the product you see accordingly, but it gets smarter the more actions you take,” adds Hayne. Don’t worry about shipping or cleaning, because it’s all included in the membership.

Those looking for help from a personal stylist will enjoy Armoire. After taking a style quiz, Armoire uses professional stylists and an algorithm to curate a custom closet for users.

How it works: There are three plans to choose from: four items for $79, seven for $119, or an unlimited number of items for $249 per month (the first two plans allow renters to receive only one case per month). If you decide to keep any clothes for longer than a month, don’t worry because any unused cases are rolled over. That way, you’ll never pay for extra cases you don’t receive. The best part: All membership tiers include free shipping both ways and can be paused or canceled at any time.

Forget everything you thought you knew about Rent the Runway. The program has completely changed over the years. While it originally launched with a focus on evening wear, “today, we’re seeing customers use their subscriptions for a wider set of life events than ever before, renting for micro-occasions like brunches, vacations, and birthdays,” Anushka Salinas, President and COO of Rent the Runway, explains to Vogue. “Every moment—small or large—is now an excuse to get dressed up and feel their best.”

You’ll also be delightfully surprised at all of the new labels being added every week. “We’ve added a number of compelling new designers to our rental rotation, including Altuzarra, gu_de, House of Sunny, Little Liffner, MUNTHE, Rotate Birger Christensen, and more,” adds Salinas.

Recently, the subscription service also teamed up with West Elm. “Now members can refresh their spaces as often as they change up their wardrobes, to better reflect their style, mood, and life stage in real time,” says Salinas.

How it works: All three memberships allow you to rent four items at a time and keep them as long as you want. The first tier costs $94 a month (after a $69 trial) and gives renters one shipment of four items per month. Members in this quadrant have access to basic closet items valued at $350 or less. If you want two shipments (a total of eight items to rent per month), the next option is the $144 per month membership. Rent the Runway calls it the Most Loved program, and it includes full closet access to items valued at up to $3,000. The third option gives renters the same access, plus four shipments per month, which equals up to 16 items every 30 days. Returns are made easy with pre-paid shipping and reusable garment bags for all tier levels.

If you’re a fan of changing your handbag often, then Vivrelle will be your best friend. Sure, you could invest in a wildly popular Bottega Veneta bag for a couple of thousand dollars, or you could rent one for an entire month for $99. Jewelry lovers will also appreciate this rental service because it offers coveted designs from Cartier and Van Cleef & Arpels.
