Style Lend (clothing sharing)
http://stylelend.com/
About a year and a half ago, Duncan
came up with the idea of Style Lend
while traveling in Paris. She thought it
would be cool if she could borrow clothes
from a stylish Parisian, as opposed to
lugging around a massive bag of her own
clothes, Duncan tells Business Insider.
Enter Style Lend, a peer-to-peer
marketplace for lending and renting
designer dresses. It's the Airbnb of
clothes, basically: As a lender, you have
two options: Do-it-yourself (DIY) or
Concierge. With the DIY option, lenders
list their dresses, meet with the
borrowers, and take care of all the
cleaning. In turn, the DIY lenders get
70% of the rental price. With the
Concierge option, StyleLend takes care of
it all, from picking up the dresses, listing
them, delivering them, and dry cleaning
them. In turn, lenders keep 50% of the
rental price.
