...if you don't already know all about rent the runway. this amazing site lets you rent designer dresses for any occasion, wear them for your big night, and return them the next day... for less than you would spend on a less glamorous dress in the first place! and their new shop by event feature narrows down your options for date night, birthday parties, new year's eve celebrations, etc. still not convinced? check out the following options for your next holiday party:
alice + olivia sculptural dress, retails for $485, yours for $50.
moschino cheap + chic rosette dress, retails for $895, yours for $100.
proenza schouler bustier dress, retails for $1,592, yours for $150.
proenza schouler colorblock sheath, retails for $2,080, yours for $200.

so why spend who-knows-how-much on a brand new dress when you could snag designer garb for cheap? rent the runway plays off the reality that we'll never wear the same dress twice... and if you're wearing one of these gems, once is enough.

perfect for your next party
