I Tested All the Buzziest Clothing Rental Services and These Are the Winners

Do you ever look at your bank account at the end of the month and wonder, where the hell did all my money go?! Yeah, same. But then I think about that cute winter sweater I bought last week and my new Amazon purse and moto boots that pair perfectly with the latest addition in my closet, and it suddenly all makes sense. I love shopping and keeping on trend, but I’m not made of money, so I needed to come up with a more sustainable solution to get my fashion fix: clothing rental services.

Basically, instead of buying every single 2024 fashion trend and a new wedding guest dress for every single wedding on my cal, I can save money while still wearing all the ‘fits my lil heart desires with a clothing rental subscription. I’m actually saving money—even if I fall in love and purchase half the things I wear…girl math, right?! And the best part? There are tonssss of rental services to choose from right now. From the OG Rent the Runway to accessory-specific services like Vivrelle, I tested some of the best clothing rental services to tell you which ones are actually worth trying. Keep scrolling to discover all the ones that made the cut—trust me, your wardrobe will thank you later.

The best clothing rental services in 2024:

---

Best Overall: Nuuly

• What it costs: $98 per month
• Items per month: Six
• Rental period: Keep items as long as you want with no penalty with an active membership

Put Free People, Urban Outfitters, and Anthropologie’s clothing in one room, and you’ve got yourself Nuuly—aka a clothing rental service created by the parent company of the three brands. The monthly flat price of under $100 for six pieces of trendy or everyday capsule clothing (the choice is yours!) is truly a steal. I love it because I can find an outfit for a special event, a quick weekend getaway, or even for date night.
