Luxury fashion rental companies have become unlikely allies for designer brands.
Platforms like Rent the Runway, armed with data on what their customers like, are working with high end brands to inform their collections of luxury dresses, accessories and outerwear. Some items on Rent the Runway are even designed exclusively for the platform, where customers can rent them for 10 to 20 percent of the full retail price.
