Glam looks you can rent
Amp up your holiday look by renting your dream dress and going full glam without the full-price commitment. With options like a sculpted, red-carpet-ready gown, a body-skimming printed dress, plush velvet cutouts, or a cool Scandi-inspired silhouette, you can lean all the way into a moment instead of playing it safe.
A rental lets you wear the show-stopper you actually want — sequins, color, drama and all — at a fraction of the retail price, so your budget stays happy while your outfit does the most.
