Change the way you shop by renting clothes instead of buying them. Many people still have a negative perception of this because they don’t like the idea of sharing clothes with a bunch of strangers, but the truth is that it’s the same when you buy clothes.
Here are 7 reasons to convince you to start renting.
1. It’s the sustainable option
It is an unbelievable fact that with UK households sending 300,000 tonnes of fashion waste to landfill every year and the average number of times a garment is worn is dropping by 36% over the last 15 years. Our society is really beginning to educate themselves in consequences of our day-to-day activity. People are beginning to eat less meat and veganism is becoming more and more acceptable, clean beauty is also growing and now it is happening with the fashion industry with hiring clothes becoming more common. Hiring a dress means that you can look fab at every function you attend and be proud of the fact that you have done your bit for the environment also.
2. Save time
You won’t have to worry about spending a lot of time trying to find the perfect gown for any occasion because you can just rent a designer piece. Think of the time you’ll save when looking for an affordable alternative for the clothes that you want. With renting gone are the days of ordering pieces online for them not to suit and then you having to wait a while before getting your money back.
We are also online, so it will be easier for you to order. Quick and easy. Now, you don’t have to spend a lot of time and money on something you’ll only use once.
3. Save money
Sometimes, because of not having enough time, we tend to buy clothing that fits the needs of a certain event for a high price, but never wear them again because they only serve one purpose. Willow Collective can give you some fresh picks on pieces for rent.
Imagine the extra funds you’d save if you rent clothes that you’ll only use once. Spending a fortune for a gown just isn’t worth it, especially if you’re not going to use it again. You can find a really great piece of fashion that’s extremely worth it when you rent.
4. More variety
“I don’t have anything to wear.” This is what we usually say despite having a wardrobe full of clothes. We all know that others notice what we wear and honestly, they may have seen that you’ve been repeating outfits too much.
When your fashion has become a routine, renting is your solution. You won’t be caught at an event wearing the same clothes ever again. You also won’t have the issue of having to stick to a terrible fashion choice since it’s just rented. Even more, you can go with the latest fashion trends and styles.
5. You don’t have to worry about storage
With renting you don’t need to worry about storing pieces that are once-worn in your wardrobe. Save your wardrobe space for your everyday wear.
6. Can take calculated risks
By renting, you can take risks and change up your style from time to time. There’s no need to commit to it since you’ll be returning the clothing anyway.
Renting gives you the perfect opportunity to explore new looks without having to invest in a whole wardrobe. Stop overthinking and try something new since you’ve got nothing to lose.
7. Live glamorously
Contrary to its nature, renting can actually allow you to live glamorously. This is because one of the advantages of renting is being able to wear designer clothes. While spending the same amount as you would when you buy a new piece of clothing, you can rent out designer clothes instead. By doing this, you would get a chance to wear great pieces of clothing that you would normally not spend on or afford.
Conclusion
For the wellbeing of your wardrobe, your wallet and the environment, maybe you’ll be convinced to start renting clothes. Don’t be afraid to rent and change up your style. As you can see, it is more practical, and there are so many advantages when renting clothes instead of buying them.
