If you're struggling to justify spending an extortionate amount on clothes, especially to ring in the New Year, you're not alone. As many feel the post-Christmas pinch on their bank balance, it can be almost out of the question to splash out on dresses and shoes. But, there's a way to get glam for less if you're not against wearing rented clothing.

It's become a popular way to put together a designer outfit without breaking the bank, whatever the occasion. As well as providing fashionable choices at affordable prices, compared to buying outright, there are plenty of other benefits to being a part of the renting community. For example, items aren't lost in the 'fast fashion' cycle and get much longer use than a traditional wardrobe piece.



Shoppers have reported being able to get their hands on some designer pieces worth hundreds for much less. There's a handy guide from Martin Lewis' MSE team listing some of the best places to try and what renters should know about the process. There are plenty of platforms that work just like regular shopping sites.

The MSE team highlighted By Rotation, an Android and iPhone app-based store, claiming it had a selection of designers, including Stella McCartney, Dior and Dolce & Gabbana. It did have "cheap prices and shorter rental period options." However, MSE also found it could have fewer size choices, meaning that your dream outfit might not be available in a size that fits you.

Hurr has a massive selection of over 60,000 clothing pieces in.
