Drooling over that gorgeous, never-in-your-life-could-you-afford-it, $1300 D & G dress? What if we told you you could have it for $150...at least for a few days anyway? First, there was Bag Borrow Steal. Billed in Sex and the City as the "Netflix" for purses, this site offers designer handbags for rent at a fraction of the retail price. But, why stop at handbags? Rent the Runway has kicked it up a notch, offering savy shoppers like us the opportunity to rent dresses, handbags, jewelry and more!
We are not among the fortunate few who can afford to pay retail price for high end designer clothes, but, that doesn't mean we don't dream. Thanks to Rent the Runway, our fantasies of wearing gorgeous gowns and dancing the night away with Nate Archibald are just a little bit closer to becoming a reality. Concerned about fit or hygiene? Don't fret, they want you to be satisfied so much that they send you a back-up size just in case. And, they'll even pick up the dry cleaning tab so you won't have to worry. We have not had the opportunity to try this out for ourselves but you can bet we'll let you know when we do! Until then, take a look at some of the great styles, designers, and amazing prices Rent the Runway has to offer:

I love that first dress and the shoulder details of the model's outfit in that last photo! Also, I know a girl who recently got engaged wearing a dress from Rent the Runway...and she looks great in the photos from that night!
