Everyday Clothes for Rent | rent evening dresses | rent outdoor clothing | costume rentals
The essentials in brief:
Bought especially for a specific occasion and only worn once, many items of clothing end up in old clothing collections after a few years. Fashion trends change several times a year and older pieces can no longer be worn after a year at the latest - be it for quality or fashion reasons. In order to counteract the fast fashion trend, more and more shops have emerged in recent years where you can rent clothes.
Rent clothes for everyday use
While the rental of ski equipment and evening dresses is already established, only a few clothes for everyday use are rented in Switzerland. There are many advantages to renting everyday clothing: you can always add new items to your wardrobe with rented clothes and give them back when you feel like something new. And after you have used it, a piece of clothing finds its place in another wardrobe.
1 SHAREaLOOK
At SHAREaLOOK you can rent numerous items of clothing, from maternity wear to cocktail dresses, that you don't want to buy for a lot of money. For 60 to 100 francs, you can rent clothes for specific occasions as well as outfits for everyday use, for business parties or for work. You can keep the rented parts for at least 4 days. The costs for cleaning and insurance are included in the price.
Tip: You can also offer your own clothes for rent here. SHAREaLOOK takes the photos for you and takes care of the cleaning, insurance and rental of your clothes. In return, you will receive 50 percent of the rental price.
2 Share your style
At Teil dein Style you will find everything you need for varied, everyday outfits. In order to borrow items of clothing, you must take out a subscription. Depending on how many parts you want to borrow, this costs between 19 and 59 francs per month or 209 and 649 francs per year. You can keep the parts as long as you want during your subscription. The rented clothes must be returned freshly washed.

Rent evening dresses
Clothing for special occasions such as weddings, job interviews or fancy parties is often only worn once and then hangs in the closet for years, ultimately ending up in the old clothing collection. For this reason, it makes sense to rent elegant business suits and dresses. This is not only more sustainable, but also saves a lot of money.

2 Peppermint

3 Ragfair
Whether it's a cocktail dress, bag or evening gown - everything at Ragfair revolves around elegant fashion. So if you are looking for a dress for a job interview or a candlelight dinner, you will definitely find the right piece of clothing here. From 20 francs per item, you can select the item of clothing you want from a large selection, specify the rental period and have it delivered to your home free of charge.
Rent outdoor clothing
If you are not one of the hard-working hikers, it is worth renting outdoor clothing before you invest a lot of money in sustainable outdoor clothing. But renting ski or snowboard equipment also makes sense, especially if you're just starting out and aren't sure what you need yet.
1 Montreet
The Austrian fashion label Montreet also offers its wind, rain and winter jackets made from recycled fishing nets and PET bottles for rent. Depending on the rental period, you pay between 29 and 65 euros (the price varies accordingly for orders to Switzerland) plus shipping. And if you really like a part, you simply keep it and pay the open difference. The ideal solution for anyone who wants to test a product before buying it.
Especially cool: In addition to simple outdoor fashion, you will also find really colorful individual pieces designed by Austrian artists at Montreet.
Rent ski clothing
Tip: In many towns and mountain villages you can rent outdoor clothing or all your ski equipment. This is particularly useful if you are still a beginner and unsure whether and how much winter sports you will do in the future.
